    > OntoLex 2002
    > Ontologies and Lexical Knowledge Bases
    > 27th May 2002, Las Palmas, Canary Islands - Spain
    >
    > Support by:
    > ELSNET (http://www.elsnet.org/)
    > and

    >
    > Workshop motivation and aims
    >
    > The rise of the semantic web has greatly increased the interest
    > in ontologies, but also added new critical requirements for them,
    > such as wide coverage, interoperability and multi-linguality. In
    > the perspective of the semantic web, the link between ontologies
    > and natural language appears to be crucial. Indeed, there is a
    > high level of correspondence between ontologies and lexical
    > knowledge bases. They are subject to the same requirements, and
    > there is an ever increasing potential and need for cooperation
    > between the two fields.
    >
    > Following the tradition of the first OntoLex workshop (OntoLex'00
    > Sozopol, Bulgaria 2000), this workshop will focus on the links
    > between ontologies and lexical knowledge bases, aiming at being a
    > meeting point for a number of communities that are currently not
    > sufficiently connected:
    >
    > - lexical semanticists;
    > - lexicographers and terminologists;
    > - ontologists with computer science background;
    > - ontologists with philosophical background;
    >
    > - ontology users active in various areas (knowledge management,
    > information extraction, information retrieval, machine
    > translation, conceptual modelling, eCommerce).
    >
    > The needs for greater interconnectivity among the above research
    > areas have been widely recognized in the last years. Two good
    > examples of an interdisciplinary approach are the use of upper
    > ontologies in European projects as EuroWordNet and SIMPLE, and
    > some recent work on the conceptual analysis of WordNet's
    > top-level taxonomy presented at FOIS2001.
    >
    > Lexical knowledge bases are considered an important kind of
    > language resources. Moreover, lexical knowledge bases and
    > ontologies are starting to play a crucial role in the creation
    > and usage of other language resources such as syntactic
    > tree-banks and lexicons.
    >
    > The workshop will take place on the 27th of May 2002 at Las
    > Palmas, Canary Islands - Spain (preceding the 3rd International
    > Language Resources and Evaluation Conference, LREC2002).
