In particular, it is essential to > resolve the anaphoric relation when translating into languages which > mark the gender of pronouns. Unfortunately, the majority of MT systems > developed in the seventies and eighties did not adequately address the > problems of identifying the antecedents of anaphors in the source > language and producing the anaphoric "equivalents" in the target > language. As a consequence, only a limited number of MT systems have > been successful in translating discourse, rather than isolated > sentences. One reason for this situation is that in addition to anaphora > resolution being itself a very complicated task, translation adds a > further dimension to the problem in that the reference to a discourse > entity encoded by a source language anaphor by the speaker (or writer) > has not only to be identified by the hearer (translator or translation > system) but also re-encoded in a coreferential expression in a different > language. > > The nineties have seen an intensification of research efforts in > anaphora resolution in Machine Translation.

PD: 2nd Workshop on Adaptive Hypertext and Hypermedia
by Ryszard Gubrynowicz 02 Apr '98

- ---------- > Od: Maria Milosavljevic <mariam(a)alba.nsw.cmis.CSIRO.AU> > Do: elsnet-list(a)cogsci.ed.ac.uk > Temat: CFP: 2nd Workshop on Adaptive Hypertext and Hypermedia > Data: 26 marca 1998 00:23 > > > > The 2nd Workshop on Adaptive Hypertext and Hypermedia > > Held in Conjunction with > > HYPERTEXT '98: > > The Ninth ACM Conference on Hypertext and Hypermedia > > Pittsburgh, PA, USA, June 20-24, 1998 > > http://www.ks.com/HT98/ > > http://www.contrib.andrew.cmu.edu/~plb/AH98_workshop/ > > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > > Workshop Theme: > --------------- > > With the growing size, complexity and heterogeneity of current hypermedia > systems, expecially the World Wide Web, comes the need > to provide more flexible mechanisms for delivering information to the > user. That is, we require mechanisms which can modify documents > on-the-fly in order to take the user's needs into account. Static > hypertext documents suffer from an inability to be all things to all > people; document and multimedia authors must write multiple documents > for different users rather than a single document which can > dynamically modify its content in order to address a particular user's > knowledge or the context of delivery. > > A possible remedy for the negative effects of the traditional > "one-size-fits-all" approach in the development of hypermedia systems is to > equip them with the ability to adapt to the needs of their individual > users. A possible way for achieving adaptivity is by modeling the users and > tailoring the system's interactions to their goals, tasks and interests. In > this sense, the notion of adaptive hypertext/hypermedia means a hypertext > or hypermedia system which reflects some features of the user and/or > characteristics of his/her system usage in a user model, and utilizes this > model in order to adapt various aspects of the system's output to the user. > > > This workshop is intended as an inter-disciplinary exploration into > adaptive hypertext and other kinds of flexible hypertext systems. It aims > to draw together a number of research groups taking different approaches to > adaptive and flexible hypertext systems, in order to promote the > cross-fertilisation of ideas and highlight the prospects for future > collaboration. The target research areas for the second Adaptive Hypertext > and Hypermedia workshop include: > > - Adaptive hypertext and hypermedia (adaptive navigation support and > adaptive presentation within an existing hypertext network of documents) > > - Dynamic hypertext (employing text generation or other techniques to > dynamically create both the hypertext network and the documents within > the network as the user requests them) > > - Information retrieval and filtering (the use of information > retrieval or other techniques to determine the relevance of the nodes > within a static hypertext network for the individual user) > > - Intelligent hypertext (automatic linking, similarity-based navigation, > concept-based navigation). > > > Some related events which have been held in the past include: > > - Flexible Hypertext Workshop, held at the Eighth ACM > International Hypertext Conference (Hypertext'97). > (http://www.mri.mq.edu.au/~mariam/flexht/) > > - Intelligent educational systems on the World-Wide Web, held in > conjunction with the 8th World Conference on Artificial Intelligence > in Education (AI-ED97). > (http://www.contrib.andrew.cmu.edu/~plb/AIED97_workshop/) > > - Workshop on Adaptive Systems and User Modeling on the World Wide > Web, held in conjunction with the Sixth International Conference on > User Modeling (UM'97). (http://zaphod.cs.uni-sb.de/~UM97/ws5.html) > > - Workshop on User Modelling for Information Filtering on the World > Wide Web, held in conjunction with the Fifth International Conference > on User Modeling (UM'96). > (http://www.cs.su.oz.au/~bob/um96-workshop.html) > > - Workshop on Adaptive Hypertext and Hypermedia held in conjunction > with the Fourth International Conference on User Modeling (UM'94). > (http://www.education.uts.edu.au/projects/ah/AH-94.html) > > More information about adaptive hypertext systems can be found at > http://www.education.uts.edu.au/projects/ah/ > > Workshop Focus: > --------------- > > There has been a significant amount of research in this area over the > past five years (see workshop theme for more information), but two > recurring issues have become increasingly important, and these will be > the focus of this workshop: > > - World Wide Web: The Web is both a new application area and a new > challenge for adaptive and flexible hypertext research. Web-based > applications are expected to be used by a much greater variety of users > than any earlier standalone application. Web-based applications naturally > need to be flexible; a Web-based hypertext application which is designed > with a particular class of users in mind may not suit users of other > classes. At the same time, developing adaptive and flexible hypermedia > systems on the Web, we can investigate a number of new opportunities such > as user model sharing or the use of group models. > > - Evaluation: One of the key issues which arose from the first > flexible hypertext workshop and which has been aired again recently on > the adaptive hypertext mailing list is the importance of the > evaluation of adaptive and flexible hypertext systems. In particular, since the > main goal of these systems is to maximise the suitability of a > document to the user's knowledge and needs, evaluation is an essential > aspect in the development of these systems. However, very little > research has been done which confirms the advantages of such systems > or which demonstrates how this evaluation process might be done. > > Workshop Format: > ---------------- > > The workshop will run for one full day before the main Hypertext'98 > conference. The number of attendees will be limited to 20-25 in order to > encourage participation in workshop discussions. Participation will be on > the basis of submitted position papers or by invitation. The workshop will > include a limited > number of paper presentations and general group discussions. Group > discussions will focus on the issues raised in the position papers, as > well as on some focus questions. A workshop dinner will also be > organized to encourage informal discussion. > > The programme will include: > > Welcome and Introduction > Workshop Sessions consisting of: > 1 to 2 Position Paper Presentations (15-30 minutes), and > Group Discussion on the Issues Raised (30-60 minutes) > Closing: > Planning for post-workshop activities > Conclusions and Wrap-up > Workshop Dinner > > The proceedings will be compiled into a technical report after the > workshop. > > Position Papers: > ---------------- > > We invite two categories of submissions. Persons wishing only to attend the > workshop should submit a 1-2 page position paper or a research summary > including a list of relevant publications. Persons wishing to make > presentations at the workshop should submit full papers (up to 8 pages, > 12pt font) describing demonstrated techniques for improving the adaptivity > and flexibility of hypertext documents. We are particularly interested in > papers which present innovative solutions to adaptive and flexible > hypermedia, investigate adaptive and flexible hypermedia in the context of > the WWW, and those which concern evaluation techniques for such systems. We > are also interested in receiving papers assessing the benefits and > downfalls of providing flexible documents, and papers of a more speculative > nature which focus on the future of adaptive and flexible hypertext > systems. Those aspects of the paper which are important for discussion in > the workshop should be clearly outlined in the paper. > > All papers must include in the first page: the title, author's name(s), > affiliation, mailing address, phone number, e-mail, home page URL. Full > papers must also include an abstract of 200 words maximum and up to five > keywords. > > Electronic submission of the URL address of the position paper will be > preferred, although papers submitted as ascii (html format) or RTF files > will be accepted.
