Tools for Online Demos

  • LH:

    • for presentation to outside world and among grammar writers
    • testsuite, document covered phenomena
    • selected demo sentences showing coverage of grammar
    • online interface
    • display "small feature" structure with result
    • morphology, syntax, semantics
    • show details details interesting for MT/IE

  • OE: market to community, have more semantics, show less?

  • BC: parse selection not shown in LKB interface

  • US/BC: ERG+GG online demo only displays tree + MRS

  • AC/DF/OE: treebanked parse selection possible

  • LH: online, BC: more for internal, development purposes (co-developers)

  • VK: and for teaching

  • DF: show simplified, flattened result, tools exist, partly grammar-specific

  • AC: [http://www.w3c.org/TR/xslt XSLT] is not for linguists, CSist necessary in addition

  • SD: useful generic tree transformation language

  • OE, LH: avm button , configurable filtering important, but end-user or grammar-writer specific.

  • AC: display sub-FS under paths

  • AC/LH/OE: not only hiding/showing sub-FSes, but also displaying differently

  • OE: XSLT / stylesheets to display in browser

  • OE: what tools do exist?

  • AC: TFS DTD, ISO, could be implemented in LKB

  • US: applet in heart of gold, DTD

  • OE: Mori V feature structure rendering in HTML

  • YM: less for linguists

  • US: see table in these minutes for online examples

Modes of cooperation

  • HU: applications
    • groups that are interested in / working on Information Management, IE, event, relation extraction: tokyo, cambridge, saarbrücken, oslo, melbourne
  • AC: paraphrase task (as proposed before): interesting task with nice properties:
    • take existing machinery to showcase (using parser + generator + some simple idioms)
    • types of phenomena in paraphrasing (example): light verbs
    • demo system: type in sentences, let system paraphrase, let people judge whether OK or not to get data
    • set as common task?
    • IE in chemistry/medical domain too special as common task
  • HU currently event/relation detection corpus-based
  • if with deep processing: make sure that it works with paraphrasing
  • paraphrasing as support for MT
  • AC: learning paraphrase is learning semantic equivalences
  • also in grammar, style checking
  • JC: text to text paraphrasing, summarization, compression as generic applications, too generic?
  • AC: rewrite rules; learn or hand-write
  • HU: entailment
  • HU, AC: DELPH-IN as forum for seeing which groups are interested
  • learn about preferences of the groups (e.g. dialogue)
  • interest in dialogue, question answering: Lisbon, Saarbrücken, Trondheim
  • OE: research interest (also) depend on funding opportunities
  • DELPH-IN goal: get funding (depends on whether application-oriented or scientific vision)
  • HU: DELPH-IN as a whole did not and (because of missing formal frame) can not get funding (compared to ACE, CLEF), but groups individually got funding with the help of DELPH-IN in background, e.g. lisbon, saarbrücken (PIRE)
  • gain reputation and credibility
  • bilateral grants (NSF, BMBF) possible within DELPH-IN partners
  • AC: what could DELPH-IN do specifically to help people get funding?

Dissemination

  • HU:
    • common evaluation tasks
    • connection with (larger) companies, SME
    • visibility at international conferences (thank DELPH-IN in papers)
  • AC:
    • DELPH-IN web page, mention on homepage of members
    • automatically grasp
    • official maintainer of DELPH-IN web page?
  • OE: facelift, wikify
  • AB: Lisbon got a second funding, almost maximum in Portugal, thanks to DELPH-IN support
  • Google visibility: pargram vs. DELPH-IN
  • web page: color scheme, content, news, publications
  • cf. Fefor discussion ...
