Call for papers for the TermTrends Workshop at LDK Conference 2023
12-15 September, Vienna, Austria

TermTrends 2023 – Terminology in the Era of Linguistic Data Science – will be co-located with LDK 2023 at the University of Vienna, Austria, on September 13, 2023

This half-day workshop, initiated within the COST Action NexusLinguarum – European network for Web-centred Linguistic Data Science (CA 18209), aims to provide a discussion forum regarding the theoretical and methodological approaches that have characterised Terminology in recent years, especially its central role in the organisation and sharing of specialised knowledge, both at a conceptual and linguistic level. In particular, we would like to focus on its connection to the Linguistic Linked (Open) Data (LLOD) paradigm and to Semantic Web formats and technologies through the use of ontologies, thereby promoting the creation of interoperable terminological resources. In addition, the workshop intends to explore the advantages and challenges underlying various Terminology-related standardisation approaches, ranging from the initially proposed standards to represent terminology within the International Standardisation Organisation (ISO), to models that represent linguistic data in the Semantic Web, including emerging vocabularies still under development. Moreover, Terminology is currently benefiting from neural network approaches and architectures, and new methods are being proposed to enhance both term extraction and terminology enrichment tasks. We also aim to address novel ways to represent terminological knowledge, especially in multiple domains and applications, such as Digital Humanities, e-lexicography, or Life Sciences.
