International Nooj2014 Conference (NooJ2014)
June 3-5 2014 - Sassari (Italy)

http://nooj2014.uniss.it/index.html

Deadline for the submission of the abstracts is February 1st, 2014.

Second CALL FOR PAPERS


NooJ is a linguistic development environment that allows linguists to
formalize several levels of linguistic phenomena:

? typography and spelling;
? lexicons of simple words, multiword units and discontinuous expressions;
? inflectional, derivational and agglutinative morphology;
? local and structural syntax;
? transformational syntax and paraphrase generation;
? semantic analysis and machine translation.

For each of these levels NooJ provides linguists with one or more formal tools
specifically designed to facilitate the description of each phenomenon, as
well as parsing/development/debugging tools designed to be as computationally
efficient as possible, from Finite-State to Turing machines. The integration
of all the linguistic levels in one compatible platform distinguishes NooJ
from other computational linguistic frameworks which provide a unique
formalism, incompatible with others.

As a corpus processing tool, NooJ allows researchers in various social
sciences to extract information from corpora by applying sophisticated queries
based on concepts and relations (rather than word forms) and automatically
build concordances, add semantic annotations, and perform statistical
analyses. NooJ has been endorsed by the Meta-Share CESAR Project of the
European Community, is now available as a JAVA open source package and runs
under Windows LINUX and Mac OSX platforms. NooJ linguistic modules for over 20
languages are freely available at www.nooj4nlp.net.

The NooJ conference intends to:

? give NooJ users and researchers in Linguistics and in Computational
Linguistics the opportunity to meet and share their experience as developers,
researchers and teachers;
? present to NooJ users the latest linguistic resources and NLP applications
developed for/with NooJ, its latest functionalities, as well as its future
developments;
? offer researchers and graduate students two tutorials (one basic and one
advanced) to help them parse corpora and build NLP applications using NooJ;
? provide the occasion to present and discover the recent developments of NooJ
itself (v3).

Linguistic resources: Typography, Spelling, Morphology, Lexical Analysis,
Local Syntax, Structural Syntax, Transformational Analysis, Paraphrase
Generation, Semantic annotations, Semantic analysis.

Hi,

I noticed a recent thread about the use of SGE cluster to run Moses. I now
know Thomas Meyer provided a script to get Moses (decoder) running on a
cluster using SGE. Also, that folks at Edinburgh are using a large
multi-core machine to run Moses (from @Hieu's mail in the same thread).

My question is as follows:
1. Are there others who have tried to run Moses on clusters that don't use
SGE compatible schedulers (Torque ...).

2. I recently got access to a cluster which uses Slurm as a resource
manager and scheduler. I am wondering if writing a similar perl script
using Slurm is my best option, if some one hasn't already done so?

3. If I port the existing parallelizer using Torque to this Slurm, I would
prefer that the entire pipeline of Moses is run on the cluster (unlike
moses-parallel.pl which parallelizes the decoder alone), so could you also
confirm that this script is the best place to start with:

scripts/ems/support/generic-parallelizer.perl
Thanks.

- Prasanth

As you might already know, in September 2012 TAUS launched a student
project called TAUS Developing
Talent<http://zc1.maillist-manage.com/click.zc?od=11287eca3d591d&repDgs=14ee099f35c986c&linkDgs=14ee099f35c9fe9>.
It involves postgraduate students from universities all over the world in
the process of data preparation, Machine Translation engines
training/optimization/testing and translation quality evaluation.


Currently, more than 40 universities are taking part in the TAUS Developing
Talent Project. In the process, students gain a greater understanding of
commercial requirements while industry also benefits from the
experimentation undertaken by some of the brightest young computational
linguists globally.


Now we are happy to present you the first TAUS Developing Talent
Yearbook containing 10 research papers published by the bright students
from Asia, Europe and the Americas.



The first annual book is free and available for download at
