SEW-2009 - Semantic Evaluations: Recent Achievements and Future Directions

A NAACL HLT 2009 Workshop, June 4, 2009, Boulder, Colorado, USA

Main    Call for Papers    Program Committee    Submission Instructions    Program


The main purpose of this workshop is to review, analyse and discuss the latest developments in semantic analysis of text. The fact that this workshop happens between the last Semantic Evaluation exercise (SemEval-2007) and the preparation for the next SemEval in 2010, presents an exciting opportunity to discuss practical and foundational aspects of semantic processing of text.  The workshop targets papers describing both semantic processing systems and evaluation exercises, with special attention to foundational issues in both lexical and propositional semantics, including semantic representation and semantic corpus construction problems.

This workshop is endorsed by SIGLEX, SIGSEM and SIGANN the ACL Special Interest Groups on the LEXicon, Computational SEMantics and ANNotation
