First NLP4DL Workshop
First Natural Language Processing for Digital Libraries (NLP4DL) Workshop, in Viareggio, Italy (15 June 2009)
Digital libraries represent a crucial contact point among traditional libraries, recent advances in Information Technology, and Natural Language Processing technologies. In a sense, digital libraries represent a perfect crossroads: they are mainly built out of text, they are consulted by humans via natural language, and one of the major tools for accessing the information they hold, metadata, is a mix of structured and unstructured information.
The First Natural Language Processing for Digital Libraries (NLP4DL) workshop, organised under the auspices of the CACAO project aims to collect all fundamental and innovative research which is done in connection with Natural Language Technologies applied to the digital libraries universe.
Call for papers (deadline was April 20th)
