2nd INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON STATISTICAL LANGUAGE AND SPEECH PROCESSING SLSP 2014 Grenoble, France October 14-16, 2014 Organised by: Équipe GETALP Laboratoire d’Informatique de Grenoble Research Group on Mathematical Linguistics (GRLMC) Rovira i Virgili University http://grammars.grlmc.com/slsp2014/ ********************************************************************************** AIMS: SLSP is a yearly conference series aimed at promoting and displaying excellent research on the wide spectrum of statistical methods that are currently in use in computational language or speech processing. It aims at attracting contributions from both fields. Though there exist large, well‐known conferences and workshops hosting contributions to any of these areas, SLSP is a more focused meeting where synergies between subdomains and people will hopefully happen. In SLSP 2014, significant room will be reserved to young scholars at the beginning of their career and particular focus will be put on methodology. VENUE: SLSP 2014 will take place in Grenoble, at the foot of the French Alps. SCOPE: The conference invites submissions discussing the employment of statistical methods (including machine learning) within language and speech processing. The list below is indicative and not exhaustive: phonology, morphology syntax, semantics discourse, dialogue, pragmatics statistical models for natural language processing supervised, unsupervised and semi‐supervised machine learning methods applied to natural language, including speech statistical methods, including biologically‐inspired methods similarity alignment language resources part‐of‐speech tagging parsing semantic role labelling natural language generation anaphora and coreference resolution speech recognition speaker identification/verification speech transcription text‐to‐speech synthesis machine translation translation technology text summarisation information retrieval text categorisation information extraction term extraction spelling correction text and web mining opinion mining and sentiment analysis spoken dialogue systems author identification, plagiarism and spam filtering STRUCTURE: SLSP 2014 will consist of: invited talks invited tutorials peer‐reviewed contributions INVITED SPEAKERS: to be announced PROGRAMME COMMITTEE: Sophia Ananiadou (Manchester, UK) Srinivas Bangalore (Florham Park, US) Patrick Blackburn (Roskilde, DK) Hervé Bourlard (Martigny, CH) Bill Byrne (Cambridge, UK) Nick Campbell (Dublin, IE) David Chiang (Marina del Rey, US) Kenneth W.
