co-located with LREC 2022
The 8th Workshop on Linked Data in Linguistics (LDL-2022): Revisiting a Decade of Linguistic Linked Open Data, co-located with the LREC 2022, is coorganized by ELEXIS.
The Linked Data in Linguistics (LDL) workshop series has become the major forum for presenting, discussing and the application of Semantic Web standards and the Linked Open Data paradigm to language resources.
The LDL workshop series has contributed greatly to the development of the Linguistic Linked Open Data (LLOD) cloud and the development of best practices for publishing and accessing language resources and providing language technology services on the web. Most notably, this includes community standards such as the NLP Interchange Format (NIF), the OntoLex-Lemon model of the W3C Community Group Ontology-Lexica, and numerous domain-specific adaptations and extensions that these models have had an influence on.
In addition, there are an increasing number of national, European, and international research projects that build on LLOD technology. These will contribute to its further development and will help ensure the success of this workshop and a high attendance rate. The 10th anniversary edition of the LDL can count on the support of the COST action “NexusLinguarum: European Network for Web-centered Linguistic Data Science”, as well as two Horizon 2020 projects. Firstly, the Prêt-à-LLOD project, which is making linguistic linked open data ready-to-use, and, secondly, the ELEXIS project on building a lexicographic infrastructure.
The workshop is targeting a wide range of communities such as applied linguistics, lexicography, digital humanities, natural language processing and information technology and it provides the primary forum for to present, to discuss use cases, experiences, best practices, recommendations and technologies of Linguistic Linked Open Data in an interdisciplinary setting, addressing topics such as linking language resources, natural language for structured knowledge and structured knowledge for natural language.
Motivation and Topics of Interest
The LDL workshop series invites presentations of algorithms, methodologies, experiments, tools, use cases, descriptions of ongoing or planned research projects as well as position papers regarding the creation, support, publication or application of linguistic data collections and their linking with other resources. Descriptions of such data, and in particular, its uses in research (linguistics, lexicology, DH) and technology (natural language processing, lexicography, localization) are also welcome.
Additionally, the 10th anniversary edition of LDL will specifically welcome contributions and position papers that reflect on the impact, prospects, requirements, or challenges encountered with the application of LLOD technology to research problems and industrial applications in the past decade. This includes experiences in the development, usage or limitations of existing and emerging standards as well as the application and adaptation of vocabularies for novel applications and domains, as well as contributions that look towards the future of LLOD technologies and applications for academic and industrial research.
