                    5th AUSTRALASIAN NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING WORKSHOP
                                        (ANLP2002)

                                   Call for Participation

                                     2nd December 2002
                                    Canberra, Australia
                      http://www.clt.mq.edu.au/Events/Conferences/anlp2002

    Macquarie University's Centre for Language Technology cordially
    invites you to this one-day workshop on Natural Language Processing to
    be held in conjunction with the Australian AI conference (AI'02) in
    Canberra: http://www.cs.adfa.edu.au/~abbass/AI02/index.html

    The goals of the workshop are:

                * to bring together the growing NLP community in Australia and
                  New Zealand;
                * to provide an opportunity for the broader artificial
                  intelligence community to become aware of local NLP research;
                * to provide a forum for discussion of new research;
                * to foster interaction between academic and industrial
                  research.

    Our hope is to get as many Australasian NLPers together as possible to
    encourage dialogue between those working on similar topics and between
    areas with a - perhaps as yet untapped - potential to interact.
