Computational linguistics and intelligent text processing : second international conference, CICLing 2001, Mexico City, Mexico, February 218-24, 2001 : proceedings

Cicling 2001 Is The Second Annual Conference On Intelligent Text Processing And Computational Linguistics (hence The Name Cicling), See Www.cicling.org. It Is Intended To Provide A Balanced View Of The Cutting Edge Developments In Both Theoretical Foundations Of Computational Linguistics And Practice Of Natural Language Text Processing With Its Numerous Applications. A Feature Of The Cicling Conferences Is Their Wide Scope That Covers Nearly All Areas Of Computational Linguistics And All Aspects Of Natural Language Processing Applications. The Conference Is A Forum For Dialogue Between The Specialists Working In These Two Areas. This Year Our Invited Speakers Were Graeme Hirst (u. Toronto, Canada), Sylvain Kahane (u. Paris 7, France), And Ruslan Mitkov (u. Wolverhampton, Uk). They Delivered Excellent Extended Lectures And Organized Vivid Discussions. A Total Of 72 Submissions Were Received, All But Very Few Of Surprisingly High Quality. After Careful Reviewing, The Program Committee Selected For Presentation 53 Of Them, 41 As Full Papers And 12 As Short Papers, By 98 Authors From 19 Countries: Spain (19 Authors), Japan (15), Usa (12), France, Mexico (9 Each), Sweden (6), Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Malaysia, Russia, United Arab Emirates (3 Each), Argentina (2), Bulgaria, The Netherlands, Ukraine, Uk, And Uruguay (1 Each).

The total of 91 contributions presented was carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the proceedings. The papers are organized in topical sections named: general techniques; lexical resources; morphology and tokenization; syntax and named entity recognition; word sense disambiguation and coreference resolution; semantics and discourse; sentiment, polarity, subjectivity, and opinion; machine translation and multilingualism; text mining, information extraction, and information retrieval; text summarization; stylometry and text simplification; and applications. This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Intelligent Text Processing and Computational Linguistics, CICLing 2001, held in Mexico City, Mexico in February 2001. The 38 revised full papers and 12 short papers presented together with three invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 72 submissions. The books is divided in topical sections on computational linguistic theories, semantics, anaphora and reference, disambiguation, translation, text generation, dictionaries and corpora, morphology, parsing techniques, text categorization, information retrieval, and structure identification and text mining This work constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Intelligent Text Processing and Computational Linguistics, CICLing 2001. The books is divided into sections, including: computational linguistic theories, semantics, anaphora and reference, and translation. The Meaning-Text theory (MTT) was put forward in Moscow, thirty-five years ago, by Zolkovski and Mel'cuk ([29], [30]), in the framework of research in machine translation.
