         Call for papers TIA 2005
  Terminology and Artificial Intelligence

          Rouen, France
          April 4-5, 2005

- Submission deadline: January 16, 2005
- Notification of acceptance: February 8, 2005
- Camera-ready paper: March 4, 2005
-----------------------------------------------


Due to the ever-increasing amount of machine-readable information,
institutions, companies and laboratories are facing new problems
related to scale effects and the diversity of technical texts. Text
has always been considered as an important vehicle for information and
knowledge, but it also contains information that is crucial in a
decision making process, in scientific or technical domains.

Access a large amount of document, identify the relevant documents,
archive them, distribute them in a targeted way, identify useful
knowledge in the text, compare and confront textual content -- these
are amongst others, the tasks that terminology can help exerting.  As
a result, to bring out innovative solutions, terminology as a
discipline should establish cooperative links with related areas,
including linguistics and natural language processing, artificial
intelligence learning, information sciences and knowledge engineering.
Terminology and the other disciplines mutually take enrichment in each
other: terminology builds resources that can be used by these
disciplines in return. They are able to propose theories, methods and
tools for the building of terminological resources (index,
terminologies, thesaurus, ontologies).  The TIA Conference aims at
promoting convergence and synergy among such disciplines and
terminology in order to develop and evaluate corpus-processing
methodologies. More specifically, pluridisciplinary approaches should
be emphasized.

Topics of Interest
==================
You are invited to submit an original paper with a theoretical,
practical or methodological issue on the following topics (the list is
non exhaustive) :

* Theories of meaning and terminology regarding textual linguistics and 
ontologies
* Methods for automatic recognition of terminology evolution (diachronic 
aspects)
* Automatic and manual acquisition of terminology from corpora
* Methods for automatic terminology structuring (identification of 
relationship between
terms, domain recognition)
* Use of terminological resources for building and structuring ontologies
* Methods and criteria for evaluation and validation of terminologies
* Reusability and standardization, comparison and fusion of terminology 
resources
* Problems in multilingual terminology
* Applications of computer-based terminology (semantic web, document 
indexing and
filtering, information retrieval, document classification, technological 
development
monitoring, question-answering).

The 2005 TIA Conference follows TIA'95 (Villetaneuse), TIA'97
(Toulouse) , TIA'99 (Nantes), TIA '01 (Nancy), TIA'03 (Strasbourg) and
is organized by the TIA Working Group (http://tia.loria.fr/). TIA was
founded in 1994 under the aegis of AFIA, now AFIA/GdR-13 working group
and includes researchers in linguistics, artificial intelligence and
natural language processing. Submitted papers (in French or in
English) will be reviewed by an international program committee
composed of members of the TIA Working Group and of invited experts
(three reviews). Accepted submissions will be considered as full
papers or as a poster.
