Abstract
In the Iberian Peninsula, five official languages co-exist: Basque, Catalan,Galician, Portuguese and Spanish. Fostering multi-linguality and establishingstrong links among the linguistic resources developed for each language of theregion is essential. Additionally, a lack of published resources in some of theselanguages exists. Such lack propitiates a strong inter-relation between themand higher resourced languages, such as English and Spanish.In order to favour the intra-relation among the peninsular languages as wellas the inter-relation between them and foreign languages, different purposemultilingual NLP tools need to be developed.Interesting topics to beresearched include, among others, analysis of parallel and comparable corpora,development of multilingual resources, and language analysis in bilingualenvironments and within dialectal variations.With the aim of solving these tasks, statistical, linguistic and hybrid ap-proaches are proposed. Therefore, the workshop addresses researchers fromdifferent fields of natural language processing/computational linguistics: textmining, machine learning, pattern recognition, information retrieval andmachine translation.The research in this proceedings includes work in all of the official languages ofthe Iberian Peninsula. Moreover, interactions with English are also included.Wikipedia has shown to be an interesting resource for different tasks and hasbeen analysed or exploited in some contributions.Most of the regions of the Peninsula are represented by the authors of thecontributions. The distribution is as follows: Basque Country (2 authors),Catalonia (7 authors), Galicia (4 authors), Portugal (2 authors) and Valencia(5 authors). Interestingly, those regions where Spanish is the only officiallanguage are not represented. It is worth noting that authors working beyondthe Peninsula have also contributed to this workshop, including: Argentina (3authors), Finland (1 author), France (2 authors), Mexico (1 author), Singapore(1 author), and USA (6 authors).File | Dimensione | Formato | |
