Reseña del editor

CICLing 2003 (www.CICLing.org) was the 4th annual Conference on Intelligent Text Processing and Computational Linguistics. It was intended to provide a balanced view of the cutting-edge developments in both the theoretical foundations of computational linguistics and the practice of natural language text processing with its numerous applications. A feature of CICLing conferences is their wide scope that covers nearly all areas of computational linguistics and all aspects of natural language processing applications. The conference is a forum for dialogue between the specialists working in these two areas. This year we were honored by the presence of our keynote speakers Eric Brill (Microsoft Research, USA), Aravind Joshi (U. Pennsylvania, USA), Adam Kilgarriff (Brighton U., UK), and Ted Pedersen (U. Minnesota, USA), who delivered excellent extended lectures and organized vivid discussions. Of 92 submissions received, after careful reviewing 67 were selected for presentation; 43 as full papers and 24 as short papers, by 150 authors from 23 countries: Spain (23 authors), China (20), USA (16), Mexico (13), Japan (12), UK (11), Czech Republic (8), Korea and Sweden (7 each), Canada and Ireland (5 each), Hungary (4), Brazil (3), Belgium, Germany, Italy, Romania, Russia and Tunisia (2 each), Cuba, Denmark, Finland and France (1 each).

Reseña del editor

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Computational Linguistics and Intelligent Text Processing, CICLing 2003, held in Mexico City, Mexico in February 2003.

The 67 revised papers presented together with 4 keynote papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 92 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on computational linguistics formalisms; semantics and discourse; syntax and POS tagging; parsing techniques; morphology; word sense disambiguation; dictionary, lexicon, and ontology; corpus and language statistics; machine translation and bilingual corpora; text generation; natural language interfaces; speech processing; information retrieval and information extraction; text categorization and clustering; summarization; and spell-checking.
