Call for Papers
Georgetown University Round Table On Languages and Linguistics (GURT)
Pre-Session: CORPUS-BASED LINGUISTICS
Wednesday March 10, 1993
The analysis of large text corpora is engaging the interest of linguists from
many subfields, as the field turns away from linguistic analysis based on
introspection to data-oriented approaches. Currently, insights are not fully
shared, as the subfields and related disciplines often present research at
different conferences. For this full-day GURT pre-session, 20-minute
papers are solicited on the following topics:
- the design and collection of text/speech corpora
- tools for searching and processing on-line corpora
- critical assessments of on-line corpora and corpus-processing tools
- methodological issues in corpus-based analysis
- applications and results in linguistics and related
disciplines, including language teaching, computational linguistics,
historical linguistics, discourse analysis, and stylistic analysis
Send 1 page (500-word) abstracts to cball@guvax.georgetown.edu (Internet),
cball@guvax (Bitnet), or Catherine N. Ball, Dept. of Linguistics,
Georgetown University, Washington DC 20057. Electronic submissions are
encouraged. Please include name, institution, address, telephone number, and
e-mail address.
Deadline for receipt of abstracts is Dec. 1, 1992.

The Cambridge Language Survey (CLS) is an international, multilingual survey of
language coordinated by Cambridge University, UK. Its main activities are the
development of sense-tagged corpora within an integrated language database
(corpora indexed to their meanings in electronic dictionaries). The materials
will eventually be made available to the scholarly community, including corpus
materials and software tools for NLP. Would anyone wishing to be kept in touch
with these developments who has not yet been in contact with us please drop a
note to: Christina Hottner, Cambridge Language Survey, Shaftesbury Road,
Cambridge CB2 2RU, UK, with a request to be sent a description of the survey,
