Opis

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Computational Linguistics and Intelligent Text Processing, CICLing 2005, held in Mexico City, Mexico in February 2005.The 53 revised full papers and 35 revised short papers presented together with 4 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 151 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on computational linguistics forum; semantics and discourse; parsing and syntactic disambiguation; morphology; anaphora and conference; word sense disambiguation; lexical resources; natural language generation; machine translation; speech and natural language interfaces; language documentation; information extraction, information retrieval; question answering; summarization; text classification, categorization, and clustering; named entity recognition; language identification; and spelling and style checking.
