    58We invite papers on various topics concerning the use of Web resources for corpus research and NLP applications, including (but not limited to) the following:
     
    1417    * duplicate detection, interactive query refinement, etc.
    1518    * reviews and clever uses of search engine APIs (Google, Yahoo, Altavista, and in particular Microsoft's current generous Live Search API)

    1920We particularly welcome submissions on the use of languages other than English.  One of the bottlenecks in corpus linguistic research on a particular language consists in availability of corpora for this language: translation studies for, say, Ukrainian or Vietnamese are limited by the existence of diverse corpora for these languages.  The Web gives the opportunity to alleviate this bottleneck, as millions of Ukrainian or Vietnamese texts are available on the Web, but we still do not know many parameters of what is there and how useful it is for translation, language teaching, linguistics research, etc.
