CBA-2010: Call for Papers

"Corpus-Based Approaches to PARAPHRASING AND NOMINALIZATION"
1-2 December 2010

Deadline for paper submission: Monday 20 September, 2010
Workshop location: Universitat de Barcelona
Workshop Email : cba2010@ub.edu


Description
---------------------
The goal of the "Corpus-based Approaches to Paraphrasing and Nominalization"
workshop is to discuss different corpus-based approaches to the automatic
processing of paraphrases and nominal structures. This workshop also aims to
evaluate to what extent the analysis of paraphrases and nominal structures
can improve the quality of NLP applications. Finally, this workshop might
constitute a platform for the exchange of resources and tools derived from
research projects. Although paraphrasing and nominalization are established
as independent research fields, there exists a close connection between
them: nominalizations can be understood as a kind of paraphrase.

We believe there is a need to bring together linguists and computer
scientists, and we invite unpublished contributions related to issues in
these fields with a special emphasis on -though not limited to:
- Paraphrasing: scope and typology
- Methods for paraphrase extraction, recognition and generation
- Paraphrase corpora compilation
- Formalisms for paraphrase representation
- Multilingual paraphrasing
- Nominalization as a paraphrase subtype
- Nominalizations: analysis and classification
- Semantic Role Labelling for nominalization argument structure
- Recognition and interpretation of nominalizations
- Distribution of semantic selations among NPs, specially nominalized NPs
- Nominalizations in support verb constructions
