WORKSHOP ON TEXTUAL AND LEXICAL RESOURCES 9-12 Sunday, 19 August 1990 At COLING-90, Helsinki, FINLAND [Check at registration for location] Work in computational linguistics is becoming increasingly sensitive to the need for natural language data. Data are critical for theory formulation, for the development of practical applications in the language industries, and, in particular, for the evaluation of computational linguistics as a whole. Of particular interest from this point of view are recent activities concerned with the collection of text files, with the creation of lexical data and knowledge bases, and with the development of ways to increase the ability to reuse and share both data and tools. The results will increase the possibility and likelihood of cooperation across a broad range of areas in computational linguistics. This workshop will provide an open and informal forum within which these activities are discussed and their relationship to current research and development established. The results will be reported on during COLING-90. There are no restrictions on participation and there is no need to register specifically for the workshop.
