From the webpage:
The International Conference on Language Resources and Evaluation is organised by ELRA biennially with the support of institutions and organisations involved in HLT.
LREC Conferences bring together a large number of people working and interested in HLT.
Full proceedings, including workshops, tutorials, papers, etc., are available from 2002 forward!
I almost forgot to hit “save” for this post because I was reading a tutorial on Arabic parsing. 😉
You really owe it to yourself to see this resource.
Hundreds of papers at each conference on issues relevant to your processing of texts.
Getting a paper accepted here should be your goal after seeing the prior proceedings!
Once you get excited about the prior proceedings and perhaps attending in the future, here is my question:
How do you make the proceedings from prior conferences effectively available?
Subject to indexing/search over the WWW now but that isn’t what I mean.
How do you trace the development of techniques or ideas across conferences or papers, without having to read each and every paper?
Moreover, can you save those who follow you the time/trouble of reading every paper to duplicate your results?
