CNL 2010 2nd Workshop on Controlled Natural Languages

http://staff.um.edu.mt/mros1/cnl2010

Marettimo Island, Sicily (Italy) 13-15 September 2010

Controlled natural languages (CNLs) are subsets of natural languages, obtained by restricting the grammar and vocabulary in order to reduce or eliminate ambiguity and complexity.

Clarification of GF<->Ontology interoperability

Submitted by petar on 26 April, 2010 - 10:52

The following three tasks can be based on this interoperability:

  1. Natural Language Generation from ontology
  2. Translation of natural language queries to SPARQL
  3. Information extraction
  1. Natural Language Generation from ontology
    2. We could follow the scheme:
    • Determine small ontology subgraphs.
    • For each ontology subgraph define natural language patterns that describe it.
    • Define GF grammars that can parse all natural language patterns.

Creating Linguistic Resources with GF

17 May 2010
Europe/Stockholm

LREC 2010 Tutorial, Malta, 17 May 2010

Aarne Ranta

Background

The tutorial gives an introduction to GF, Grammatical Framework (grammaticalframework.org), which is a special-purpose programming language for implementing grammars. GF has partly the same scope as grammar formalisms like HPSG and LFG, but differs from them by having a concept of multilingual grammars, i.e. grammars with shared semantic representations.

MOLTO will be presented at the 14th Annual Conference of the European Association for Machine Translation, EAMT 2010, taking place between the 27th - 28th of May 2010 in Saint-Raphaël, France. Cristina España-Bonet and Lluís Màrquez from UPC will talk about Robust Estimation of Feature Weights in Statistical Machine Translation on May 27th, 2010 during the afternoon poster session, but they will also give a short description of MOLTO during the session on European Community supported projects on May 28th, 2010 at 11:00.

Creating a MacPorts project for gf

Submitted by jordi.saludes on 20 April, 2010 - 13:54

The goal of submitting gf as a MacProject is to be eventually able to type:

sudo port install gf

to have gf automagically compiled and installed in your mac.
