Call for contributions forWorkshop on Optimizing understanding in multilingual hospital encountersCo-located with TIA, Paris, 30 October 2013In this workshop we will bring together participants who have solutions for one or more of the following problems:How can mutual understanding be optimized with the help of technology in hospitals where both patients and professionals have varying language skills, cultural backgrounds and cognitive capacities? Can domain ontologies, natural language processing tools, multilingual knowledge-based tools, multilingual terminology resources and other semantic technologies be combined in order to enhance the quality of mutual understanding between humans? Multi-language web apps already exist that make it easier for different health professionals to improve communication through the use of terminology and phrases like standard questions and explanations in multiple languages. We solicit ideas on how technology can optimize the usability of this type of resource and of other types of resources and on how new technologies can reuse all types of existing terminological resources.The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers from several domains, and practitioners from industry, academia and health policy making bodies to report on recent developments, achievements, technology trends and research results on projects concerning the optimization of understanding in multilingual hospital encounters and the possibilities of applying web-based technologies to this end.What follows is a non-exhaustive list of topics of interest for this workshop. * One of the topics is how cloud-based technology can optimize understanding in caretaker – caregiver communication in a variety of hospital settings where misunderstanding might be lurking because of incompatible language skills, cultural differences, terminology, etc.* We welcome contributions in the field of current semantic web-based technologies, techniques and tools with the aim of reusing distributed data on the web and exploring web-based health applications. * We also solicit examples of service-oriented collective intelligence and language resource interoperability. How can existing hospital infrastructures of several kinds be designed for caregivers and for caretakers as end users?* A clinical pathway is a decision-tree based on clinical assessment that guides the triage, history taking and further examination of a patient with a particular clinical problem. We solicit examples of clinical pathways for identifying and treating specific disorders at triage and history taking in hospital emergency wards where caretakers and patients do not speak the same language, in which  the linguistic and cultural background of a patient are taken into consideration.* General-purpose machine translation tools are not reliable for the translation of medical records. We solicit examples of the use of machine translation tools (trained to target specific domains in medicine?) to enhance understanding between caregivers and caretakers in well-defined contexts.
We invite you to send a short paper (4 pages, presentation time 15 minutes)ORGANIZERS:

INTRODUCTION and MOTIVATION

TIA 2013 will be the 10th in a series of successful events which, for the most part, initially took place in the francophone world. Over a period of almost 20 years – the first conference was held in 1995 – TIA has increasingly attracted the attention of many researchers and practitioners all over the world, and its work has become truly international.
The aim of TIA 2013 is to provide an overview of the new ways in which multilingual terminology is present in an ever-increasing networked society, and to pay special attention both to the methods applied in the conceptualization of domain knowledge and to the applications and tools that will meet the requirements of e-society. In this way, terminology, linguistics and knowledge engineering provide the basis on which many other disciplines develop their applications such as domain ontologies, natural language processing tools, multilingual knowledge-based tools and web-based linguistic applications. New approaches to the standardization and to the reuse and integration of different tools designed to facilitate work in institutions, companies and society in general will be welcome.

The TIA 2013 Conference aims to promote interdisciplinary research focusing on the intersection of different disciplines that deal with terminological aspects and knowledge engineering resources. Papers may address both theoretical questions and methodological aspects on these issues, as well as interdisciplinary approaches developed to facilitate convergence and co-operation in terminological aspects of importance to society.

TOPICS OF INTEREST

Terminology and ontology acquisition and management
– Applying pattern recognition to enriching terminological resources
– Lexicons, thesauri and ontologies as semantic resources
– Lexicons and ontologies as means for knowledge transfer
– Reusing, standardizing and merging terminological or ontological resources
– Multilingual terminology extraction
– Multilinguality and multimodality in terminological resources
– Management of language resources

Terminology and knowledge representation
– Ontological semantics and linguistics
– Ontology localization
– Development of multimedia terminological resources
– Terminology alignment in parallel corpora and other lexical resources
– Representation of terms and conceptual relations in knowledge-based applications
– Comparative studies of terminological resources and/or ontological resources from different languages, domains and approaches
– Terminological resources in the 21st century
– Harmonization of format and standards in terminological resources

Terminology and ontologies for applications
–  Interoperability and reusability in knowledge-based tools and applications
– Models and metamodels in annotating semantic and terminological resources
– New R &D directions in terminology for industrial uses and needs

SUBMISSIONS

TIA 2013 solicits both regular papers, which present significant work, and short papers, which typically present work in progress or a smaller, focused contribution. The program committee may decide to change the category of a paper before acceptance. Papers can be written either in English or French.
Regular papers should not exceed 8 pages in ACL-HLT 2011 format (see below for LaTeX and MS Word style files), including figures, examples and references. The mode of presentation of long papers (orally or as posters) will be decided based on the nature rather than on the quality of the work.
Short papers should not exceed 4 pages in the same format as regular papers. They will also be presented orally or as posters at the conference depending on the nature of the work.
Authors should submit the papers in PDF through the TIA submission page at
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=tia2013
At the submission page, the author(s) must provide the following information:
1. name(s) of author(s)
2. affiliation(s), addresses, fax and e-mail
3. title of the paper
4. 5 to 10 key words in English or in French (in both languages if possible)
5. abstract in English or in French (in both languages if possible) (200 words maximum for each)
As the reviewing will be blind, the paper itself must not include the authors’ names and affiliations at submission time. Furthermore, self-references that reveal the author’s identity, e.g., «We previously showed (Smith, 1991) …», must be avoided. Instead, use citations such as «Smith previously showed (Smith, 1991) …». Reviews of full papers (long and short) will be performed by three reviewers.

STYLES FILES

Authors are required to use the following style files so that the papers follow the conference format.
Latex: tia2013latex.tgz
MS Word: tia2013word.zip
IMPORTANT: Remove authors’ information from your manuscripts when submitting them for blind review (see above)!

El próximo 12 de noviembre a la Aula Magna de la Universidad de Barcelona
TERMCAT convoca los III Espacios Terminológicos, la jornada de carácter
bianual que el Centro convoca para favorecer el debate entre expertos en
terminología y en las disciplinas relacionadas.

En esta tercera edición, los Espacios Terminológicos acercarán a los
asistentes a la variación geolingüística en terminología, que se abordará
desde dos vertientes complementarias: la perspectiva lingüística y
lexicográfica y el punto de vista de los especialistas. Como en ediciones
anteriores, se ha invitado a expertos de reconocido prestigio y se promoverá
el intercambio de conocimientos entre personas de diferentes perfiles
profesionales y de diferentes procedencias dentro y fuera del ámbito de la
lengua catalana.

Encontraréis el programa detallado, el formulario de inscripción y más
información sobre esta jornada en el web www.termcat.cat.
