11th International Conference on Terminology and Artificial Intelligence TIA 2015

Fecha: Del 04/11/2015 al 06/11/2015
Lugar: Colegio de Arquitectos, Casa Zayas, Plaza de St. Agustín, Granada
 
Terminology and Artificial Intelligence (TIA) 2015 will be the 11th in a series of successful events which initially took place in the francophone world. Since the first conference 20 years ago, TIA has increasingly attracted the attention of many researchers and practitioners all over the world because of the interest of the topics addressed. As a reflection of the internationalization, this year, for the first time, the TIA Conference will be held outside of France in Granada, Spain. The conference will be organized by the LexiCon research group of the Translation and Interpreting School at the University of Granada.
 
TIA 2015 will highlight the close connection between multilingual terminology, ontologies, and the representation of specialized knowledge. Today’s networked society has generated an increasing number of contexts where multilingualism challenges current knowledge representation methods and techniques. There is thus the urgent need for high-quality multilingual knowledge resources that are able to bridge communication barriers, and which can be linked and shared. Accordingly, the TIA 2015 Conference will provide a forum for interdisciplinary research that focuses on the intersection of different disciplines dealing with terminology, multilingualism, lexicology, ontology, and knowledge representation.
 
Featured plenary speakers:
 
Paul Buitelaar, National University of Ireland, Galway, Ireland Ricardo Mairal Usón, Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (UNED), Madrid, Spain
 
Topics of Interest Terminology and ontology acquisition and management Applying pattern recognition to enriching terminological resources Lexicons, thesauri and ontologies as semantic resources Lexicons and ontologies as means for knowledge transfer Reusing, standardizing and merging terminological or ontological resources Multilingual terminology extraction Multilinguality and multimodality in terminological resources Management of language resources
Terminology and knowledge representation Ontological semantics and linguistics Ontology localization Development of multimedia terminological resources
 
Terminology alignment in parallel corpora and other lexical resources Representation of terms and conceptual relations in knowledge-based applications Comparative studies of terminological resources and/or ontological resources Terminological resources in the 21st century Harmonization of format and standards in terminological resources
Terminology and ontologies for applications Interoperability and reusability in knowledge-based tools and applications Models and metamodels in annotating semantic and terminological resources New R&D directions in terminology for industrial uses and needs Terminology for machine translation and natural language processing
 
* TIA 2015 solicits both regular papers, which present significant work, and short papers, which typically present work in progress or a smaller, focused contribution. The program committee may decide to change the category of a paper before acceptance. Regular papers, in English, French, or Spanish should not exceed 8 pages in ACL-HLT 2011 format (see below for LaTeX and MS Word style files), including figures, examples and references. The mode of presentation of long papers (orally or as posters) will be decided based on the nature rather than on the quality of the work. Short papers should not exceed 4 pages in the same format as regular papers. They will also be presented orally or as posters at the conference depending on the nature of the work. Regardless of the language of the paper, all paper presentations will be in English. The submission deadline is June 15. Authors should submit the papers in PDF through the TIA submission page at Easychair: The submission process is the following: Before June 15th, author should fill in the easyChair on-line submission provide the following information: Name(s) of author(s) Affiliation(s), addresses, fax and e-mail Title of the paper 5 to 10 key words in English as well as in French or Spanish (depending on the language of the paper) As the reviewing will be blind, the paper itself must not include the authors’ names and affiliations at submission time. Furthermore, self-references that reveal the author’s identity, e.g., “We previously showed (Smith, 1991) …”, must be avoided. Instead, use citations such as “Smith previously showed (Smith, 1991) …”. *
 
Important dates: Paper submissions (long and short papers): 15 June 2015 Notification to authors: 4 September 2015 Final camera-ready paper: 24 September 2015 Conference: 4-6 November 2015
