COMPUTER PROCESSING OF ORIENTAL LANGUAGES
###########################################
Special Issue: "Information Retrieval on Oriental Languages"
INTRODUCTION
============
The International Journal on Computer Processing of Oriental Languages
(CPOL) is devoted to the publication of original theoretical and applied
research work in oriental language computing. In particular, this special
issue focuses on the field of "Information Retrieval on Oriental
Languages".
The increasing volume of information available globally through the
World-Wide-Web places high demands on the information search engines in
terms of both speed and effectiveness. As a result, much research interest
in Information Retrieval (IR) has been spurred in recent years in the
direction of performance and/or effectiveness enhancement, e.g. in the
areas of indexing, NLP, etc. Although the latest IR researches in English,
and in other Western languages, are widely and timely publicized, the same
for Oriental Languages (OL) is rare. For this reason, this special issue
is dedicated to reporting the state-of-the-art and/or state-of-the-
practice R&D efforts in IR technology for Oriental languages (IR-OL). Ori-
ginal papers in all areas of research in this field, including, but not
limited to, the following are invited:
* Natural Language Processing for IR-OL
* Automatic Information Extraction
* Multilingual and Cross Language Text Retrieval
* Automatic Text Categorization
* Automatic Text Summarization (Abstraction)
* Structural and Conceptual Indexing
* Dictionary Management
* Query Interface
* Intelligent Agent Technology
* Information Filtering
* Resource Discovery
* Logic based IR Framework
* Applications in IR-OL
* Benchmarking
GUIDELINES FOR SUBMISSION
=========================
Original papers which are not submitted to, under reviewed by and pub-
lished or to be published in other journals or conferences in any areas of
IR-OL are invited to this special issue for possible publication. The pub-
lication language is ENGLISH and electronic submission is welcome. Authors
