Multilingual matching of Named Entities NE Translation/Transliteration for CLIR
Statistical transliteration approaches & evaluation Social Network Analysis and Entity Resolution Cross-lingual NE data identification & mapping Named Entity Recognition (approaches & evaluation) * Monolingual and Multilingual NE Identification & processing Annotated data sets in specific languages & Creation experiences Orthographic/phonetic characteristics of NE Distributional characteristics of NEs in mono- and multi-lingual text corpus The topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following: This workshop invites original research contributions on all aspects of Named Entities (NEs), including identification, analysis, extraction, mining, transformation and applications to NLP and IR systems. The shared task in this workshop will cover more language pairs and more scopes of evaluation tasks. The purpose of this workshop is to bring together researchers interested in various aspects of NEs in natural language text. The details of Shared Task are described in the Shared Task Whitepaper. NEWS 2015 will continue the tradition to run a Shared Task on Transliteration, which aims to provide a common platform for benchmarking the transliteration approaches and systems across many languages. The Fifth Workshop on Named Entities (NEWS 2015) together with a Shared Task on Transliteration is a continuous effort on top of the success of NEWS 2009 (ACL-IJCNLP 2009), NEWS 2010 (ACL 2010), NEWS 2011(IJCNLP 2011) and NEWS 2012 (ACL 2012).
The phenomenal growth of the Internet data and the dramatic changes in the user demographics especially among the non-English speaking parts of the world, has made identification, association and transformation Named Entities across languages a critical path problem for most NLP and IR Tasks Named Entities (NE) play a crucial role in many monolingual and multilingual Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Information Retrieval (IR) tasks, such as document search, clustering, information extraction, etc. Call for Papers Shared Task on Transliteration
