自然语言处理与计算语言学的盛会ACL 2011即将在美国俄勒冈州波特兰市举行，而Google Research Blog在昨天发表了一篇“Google at ACL 2011”，给大家及时通报了今年Google在ACL 2011上的参与情况。粗略的看了一下，Google今年在ACL上发表的Paper涉及Part-of-Speech Tagging, Named Entity Recognition, Context-Free Parsing, Translation等自然语言处理的基础领域，值得NLPer们一阅。我是在Google Reader上看到的，直接看原文的话在国内可能需要“翻墙”，为了给大家节省一点“翻墙”的时间以及活跃这里的气氛，以下就全文转载了！
Google at ACL 2011
Posted by Ryan McDonald and Fernando Pereira, Research Team
The Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics is one of the premier conferences for language and text technologies. Many employees at Google have strong roots in the community of researchers that attend this meeting, including many of our researchers working on machine translation and speech.
At this years conference, Google is particularly well represented. The General Chair is Dekang Lin and a few Googlers are serving as technical Area Chairs (in addition to the plethora of Googlers that reviewed papers for the conference). Google is also a Platinum Sponsor of ACL this year.
Research advances at Google can be seen throughout the conference’s technical content. Below is a complete list of Googler-authored or co-authored papers in the main conference. We want to give special emphasis to this year’s best paper award, given to “Unsupervised Part-of-Speech Tagging with Bilingual Graph-Based Projections” by CMU graduate student and Google intern Dipanjan Das and his internship advisor Slav Petrov. ACL is an extremely selective conference and this award speaks volumes to the importance of syntactic analysis and using bilingual corpora to project syntactic resources from resource rich languages (like English) to other languages. Congratulations Dipanjan and Slav!
Googlers are also involved in two of this year’s tutorials. Marius Pasca will present “Web Search Queries as a Corpus” and Kuzman Ganchev and his colleagues will teach about “Rich Prior Knowledge in Learning for Natural Language Processing”. Finally, Katja Fillipova and her colleagues are running a workshop on “Monolingual Text-to-Text Generation”.
ACL will take place this year in Portland from June 19th to June 24th.
