*****************************************************************
1st INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON STATISTICAL LANGUAGE AND SPEECH
PROCESSING
SLSP 2013
Tarragona, Spain
July 29-31, 2013
Organised by:
Research Group on Mathematical Linguistics (GRLMC) Rovira i
Virgili University
Research Institute for Information and Language Processing
(RIILP) University of Wolverhampton
http://grammars.grlmc.com/SLSP2013/
*****************************************************************
AIMS:
SLSP is the first event in a series to host and promote research
on the wide spectrum of statistical methods that are currently in
use in computational language or speech processing. It aims at
attracting contributions from both fields. Though there exist
large, well-known conferences including papers in any of these
fields, SLSP is a more focused meeting where synergies between
areas and people will hopefully happen. SLSP will reserve
significant space for young scholars at the beginning of their
careers.
VENUE:
SLSP 2013 will take place in Tarragona , 100 km. to the south of
Barcelona .
SCOPE:
The conference invites submissions discussing the employment of
statistical methods (including machine learning) within language
and speech processing. The list below is indicative and not
exhaustive:
- phonology, morphology
- syntax, semantics
- discourse, dialogue, pragmatics
- statistical models for natural language processing
- supervised, unsupervised and semi-supervised machine learning
methods applied to natural language, including speech
- statistical methods, including biologically-inspired methods
- similarity
- alignment
- language resources
- part-of-speech tagging
- parsing
- semantic role labelling
- natural language generation
- anaphora and coreference resolution
- speech recognition
- speaker identification/verification
- speech transcription
- text-to-speech synthesis
- machine translation
- translation technology
- text summarisation
- information retrieval
- text categorisation
- information extraction
- term extraction
- spelling correction
- text and web mining
- opinion mining and sentiment analysis
- spoken dialogue systems
- author identification, plagiarism and spam filtering
