Creation of Linguistic Resources

Coordination

• coordinating the development of resources:
  • annotators
  • working groups on annotation schemes (e.g. TimeML)
  • development and editing of annotation guidelines

Scientific activities

• creating and annotating corpora:
  • different languages (e.g Italian, English, German)
  • different sources ( e.g. newspaper articles, speech recordings, dialogues)
  • different annotation levels:
  • semantic annotation (e.g. entities, entity mentions, relations)
  • syntactic annotation (e.g. PoS tagging, chunking)
  • non-speech acoustic event annotations (e.g.filled pauses, speaker noise)
  
  
• creating conceptual lexicons:
  • conceptual organization of terms (e.g. legal domain terms)
  • organization of lexicons to be used in the document retrieval process
