Identify, Describe and Share your LRs! Describing your LRs in the LRE Map is now a normal practice in the submission procedure of LREC (introduced in 2010 and adopted by other conferences). To continue the efforts initiated at LREC 2014 about “Sharing LRs” (data, tools, web-services, etc.), authors will have the possibility, when submitting a paper, to upload LRs in a special LREC repository. This effort of sharing LRs, linked to the LRE Map for their description, may become a new “regular” feature for conferences in our field. This will contribute to creating a common repository where everyone can deposit and share data. As scientific work requires accurate citations of referenced work so as to allow the community to understand the whole context and also to allow the replication of the experiments conducted by other researchers, LREC 2020 endorses the need to uniquely Identify LRs through the use of the International Standard Language Resource Number (ISLRN, www.islrn.org <http://www.islrn.org/>), a Persistent Unique Identifier to be assigned to each Language Resource. The assignment of ISLRNs to LRs cited in LREC papers will be offered at submission time.

[CFP-Journal of Data Mining and Digital Humanities] Special Issue on "Collecting, Preserving and Disseminating Endangered Cultural Heritage for New Understandings Through Multilingual Approaches"
by Amel Fraisse 19 Sep '19

19 Sep '19

Dear Colleagues, The recent DH workshop <https://francestanford.stanford.edu/sites/francestanford/files/media/file/D…> (Workshop program) <https://francestanford.stanford.edu/sites/francestanford/files/media/file/D…> held at Stanford University (April 9, 2019) has shown how, as Digital Humanities continues to gain momentum, the field is intersecting with an ever-widening range of disciplines including Natural Language Processing, Library and Information Science, History, Literature, and Translation Studies to name only a few. The growth of these fields within DH enables us to break new scientific ground. For example, the existing reservoir of public domain translations of literary texts, once tracked and digitalized, provides a new wealth of resources to sustain knowledge diversity, preserve our cultural heritage and help us map the global circulation and reception of information and texts. In the wake of this workshop, the Journal of Data Mining and Digital Humanities will publish a special issue "Collecting, Preserving and Disseminating Endangered Cultural Heritage for New Understandings Through Multilingual Approaches" featuring a selection of papers from the workshop and is opening up to additional contributions presenting recent research that aims at collecting, preserving, and dissiminating endangered knowledge and cultural heritage for new understandings through multilingual approaches. We welcome submissions including but not limited to the following topics: Knowledge circulation and organization in a translational context Digital Humanities, crowdsourcing and digital libraries Digital Humanties and the circulation of translated literary texts Natural Language Processing to preserve knowledge diversity and cultural heritage Collecting and aligning translated texts in and for under-resourced languages Multilingual corpora and their circulation Open data, open access and data preservation Collaboration and computing for endangered knowledge Ethics and data privacy issues in a global context More information about submission : https://jdmdh.episciences.org/page/collecting-preserving-and-disseminating-… <https://jdmdh.episciences.org/page/collecting-preserving-and-disseminating-…> Amel Fraisse, Ronald Jenn and Shelley Fisher Fishkin <applewebdata://060E0A9B-8B96-4A98-B8D1-3B313F034C36> Amel Fraisse Maitre de Conférences Université de Lille - Département SID - Laboratoire Gériico Amel.fraisse(a)univ-lille.fr <mailto:prenom.nom@univ-lille.fr> | https://pro.univ-lille.fr/amel-fraisse/ <https://pro.univ-lille.fr/amel-fraisse/> Bât. 2 - bureau B2.467 Domaine Universitaire de Pont de Bois - Villeneuve d'Ascq T. +33 (0)3 20 41 61 53

Prof Xiaobing Zhao et al. will give an invited talk on "Building Cross-Lingual Knowledge Base for Low Resource Languages in China" 4. Please find below the proceeding and slides of LoResMT 2018. Works on several low resource languages, e.g. Filipino, Finnish, Irish, Latvian, Mongolian, Quechua, Tibetan, and Uyghur, are presented. https://amtaweb.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/AMTA_2018_Workshop_Proceedin… https://sites.google.com/view/loresmt-2018/ SCOPES Machine translation (MT) technologies have been improved significantly in the last two decades, with the developments on phrased-based statistical MT (SMT) and recently the neural MT (NMT). However, most of these methods rely on the availability of large parallel data (millions to tens of millions sentence pairs) in the training, which are resources that do not exist in many language pairs. In addition, MT methods still rely on a few natural language processing (NLP) tools to help pre-process human generated texts in the forms that are required as input for these methods, and/or post-process the output in proper textual forms in target languages. In many MT systems, the performance of these tools has great impacts on the quality of the resulting translation. These NLP tools include, but not limited to, several kinds of word tokenizers/de-tokenizers, word segmenters, morphology analyzers, etc. The workshop solicits papers on MT systems/methods for low resource languages in general. We also solicit papers dedicated to these supplementary NLP tools that are used in any language and especially in low resource languages. We would like to have an overview of research on MT for low resource languages and these NLP tools from our community. TOPICS We solicit original research papers, review papers, and position papers on MT research for low resource languages in the workshop. Multilingual and/or cross-lingual NLP tools for low resource languages are especially welcome. Topics of the workshop include but are not limited to: - Research and review papers of pre-processing and/or post-processing NLP tools for MT - Position papers on the development of pre-processing and/or post-processing tools for MT - Word tokenizers/de-tokenizers for specific languages - Word/morpheme segmenters for specific languages - Alignment/Re-ordering tools for specific language pairs - Use of morphology analyzers and/or morpheme segmenters in MT - Multilingual/cross-lingual NLP tools for MT - Re-usability of existing NLP tools for low resource languages - Corpora creation and curation technologies for low resource languages - Review of available parallel corpora for low resource languages - Research and review papers of MT methods for low resource languages - MT systems/methods (e.g. rule-based, SMT, NMT) for low resource languages - Pivot MT for low resource languages - Zero-shot MT for low resource languages - Fast building of MT systems for low resource languages - Re-usability of existing MT systems for low resource languages - Machine translation for language preservation SUBMISSION INFORMATION Workshop papers should adhere to MT Summit 2019 style guide (LaTeX, OpenOffice, Word). https://www.mtsummit2019.com/submissions Submission deadline: "May 24, 2019" (Abstract on "May 17"). https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=loresmt2019 There are two types of submissions in the workshop. For research, review and position papers, the length of each paper should be at least four (4) and not exceed eight (8) pages, plus unlimited pages for references. More pages would be allowed as long as it could be justified. The review will be double-blinded. For non-archival system demonstration abstracts, the limit is four (4) pages. The review will be single-blind. We would like to encourage authors to cite papers written in ANY language that are related to the topics, as long as both original bibliographic items and their corresponding English translations are provided.
