45 new Projects listed in the wiki
by Herdsman Caedmon 12 Jul '06

12 Jul '06

A couple of months ago, I announced that I'd taken on an intern for the summer who was going to start adding project descriptions to our wiki. She has just added the first tranche. She will be getting in touch directly with project contact people to let them know their project is listed now, and to invite them to take a look to make sure the presentation and information is what they would want to see--and to invite them to make any improvements they would like to see. In the meantime, though, I thought I'd make a general announcement. You ca go to the project list directly by following this link: http://sql.uleth.ca/dmorgwiki/index.php/Category:Projects If your project is not listed there, let me encourage you to add a page about it, or let us know (caedmon(a)uleth.ca) so we can start a page for you. Beginning a new page on the wiki is as simple as signing in, and then typing the name you'd like for your page in the address line after index.php/. You then get the edit screen and away you go. E.g. If I wanted to make a page on the Grinch starting at the main page: 1) Signup and login 2) change "Main_Page" in the URL in the URL line of my browser with the page name I want: > http://sql.uleth.ca/dmorgwiki/index.php/Main_Page > http://sql.uleth.ca/dmorgwiki/index.php/Digital Grinch Project (spaces and punctuation are allowed in Wiki URLs) 3) Start editing The wiki language is also pretty easy: =Heading 1= ==Heading 2== ===Heading 3=== ====Heading 4==== * Bullet list item ** Bullet sub-item #Numbered list item ##Numbered list sub item Paragraph 1. Following paragraph (i.e. separate paragraphs with a blank line). code sample (i.e. precede with space) http://my.url.com (you can enter URL's directly). -d P.S. I'm happy to look at and clean up any code!

Fwd: Call for Proposals--ESF Research Conferences 2008
by Torsten Schassan 12 Jul '06

12 Jul '06

Dear dm-l'ers, yesterday we had a meeting at IMC in Leeds where we discussed the future of DM and were looking for perspectives. Therefore I forward an email with a call for proposals concerning Research Conferences. I know 2008 is far from today but maybe we could try to get some money to have a meeting from this source and bring people of our field together? I would be definitely interested in such a meeting and willing to help with the application procedure. A possible topic of a meeting could be the text-image-relation for which we see many projects ongoing at the moment. Best, Torsten ----- Forwarded message from ESF Research Conferences <conferences(a)esf.org> ----- Date: Sat, 10 Jun 2006 22:43:38 +0200 From: ESF Research Conferences <conferences(a)esf.org> Reply-To: ESF Research Conferences <conferences(a)esf.org> Subject: Call for Proposals--ESF Research Conferences 2008 To: clemoal-list <clemoal-list(a)esf.org> Call for Proposals - ESF Research Conferences 2008 The ESF Research Conferences Scheme is a high-level conference programme in partnership with national and international organizations, including universities. The Scheme provides the opportunity for the world’s leading scientists and other participants, including young researchers, to meet in an informal setting for discussions at the highest level on the most recent developments in their fields of research. Furthermore, it acts as a catalyst for creating new synergistic contacts throughout Europe and the rest of the world. The conferences may be series or single events. They will be interdisciplinary when appropriate. The duration will normally be four or five days and up to 150 invited speakers and participants may attend. The Scheme now includes a number of partnerships between ESF and other organizations (see http://www.esf.org/conferences). The present Call is supported by ESF and: European Molecular Biology Organization (EMBO) (ESF-EMBO Symposia in Biology at the Interface with Other Science Disciplines); Linköping University (LiU) (ESF-LiU Conferences in the Humanities and Social Sciences); Fonds zur Förderung der wissenschaftlichen Forschung in Österreich (FWF), in partnership with the Leopold-Franzens-Universität Innsbruck (LFUI) (Conferences in Physics/Biophysics and Environmental Sciences). A Call for Proposals is now open in the following scientific disciplines for conferences to take place in 2008: Biology+ (Biology at the Interface with Other Science Disciplines) Environmental Sciences Physics/Biophysics Social Sciences Humanities The Call is addressed to leading European scientists for conferences to take place in Europe. Deadline for on-line submission of proposals: 2 October 2006 (midnight CET) For further information, please consult http://www.esf.org/conferences/Proposals2008 or address your queries to Ms. Caroline Hirst, ESF Research Conferences Head of Unit, through conferences-proposals(a)esf.org.

Call for participation: AHRC ICT Methods Network Workshop on Historical Text Mining - 20 and 21 July 2006
by Hazel Gardiner 03 Jul '06

03 Jul '06

Workshop on Historical Text Mining Thursday 20th and Friday 21st July 2006, Lancaster University, UK. http://ucrel.lancs.ac.uk/events/htm06/ Organisers: Paul Rayson (Lancaster University) and Dawn Archer (University of Central Lancashire) This is one of a series of workshops sponsored by the AHRC ICT Methods Network. We want to develop a network of scholars interested in 'Historical Text Mining' via a workshop for experts from the various fields: text mining and E-Science, corpus development and annotation, historical linguistics, dialectology and computational linguistics. We believe that a discussion relating to the effective text mining of historical data is particularly overdue and much needed, because of the growth in (historical) digital resources (e.g. Open Content Alliance, Google Print, Early English Books Online). We particularly want to better define the relationship between the text mining/E-Science community, who are often involved in applying basic techniques to large scale datasets, and the corpus linguistic community, who tend to apply data-driven linguistic analysis and annotation techniques to relatively small datasets. The 'Historical Text Mining' workshop will seek: * to raise awareness of the various techniques utilised and/or tools developed by researchers working within the various fields. * to make scholars who work with historical data aware of existing text mining techniques that are applicable to their research needs, * to familiarise such scholars with the use of these techniques and tools, by means of a series of tutorial sessions (e.g. GATE, WordSmith, VARD, VIEW, Wmatrix), * to investigate the problems of applying some "modern" large-scale corpus annotation and analysis techniques to historical data, and * to encourage/enable a roundtable discussion, with the ultimate aim of determining what needs to be done to improve historical text mining and (importantly) identify possible future workshops and collaborative projects. Participation is free but, since places are limited, we request that potential participants apply in advance, and explain why they wish to attend and what they expect from the workshop. For further details on the application procedure and the workshop programme, please see the website: http://ucrel.lancs.ac.uk/events/htm06/ Dr Paul Rayson Computing Department, Infolab21, South Drive, Lancaster University, Lancaster, LA1 4WA, UK.
