Workshop: Semantics Representations for Textual Inference

Natural Language Technology is moving from text retrieval and search applications to tasks that require genuine understanding of natural language as well as the interaction between language understanding and reasoning. Within the linguistic computational world a common perspective has emerged on what is common to these natural language understanding tasks under the heading “textual inferencing”. This workshop on textual inferencing takes place at Stanford University’s Center for the Study of Language and Information on March 9-10, 2012.
