Subject: computational linguistics event (the real message)

Everyone, sorry about sending a blank msg. Here's the intended one.
This event, I believe, will take place the day before the LSA meetings
start, on Jan 6, 2000. Check the website noted below for details. Terry

  LINGUISTIC EXPLORATION


      New Methods for
  Creating, Exploring and Disseminating
   Linguistic Field Data

            Thursday 6 January 2000, 9am-6pm


       Held in conjunction with the
  Annual Meeting of the Linguistic Society of America
       Palmer House Hilton, Chicago



  The new NSF TalkBank Project [www.talkbank.org] is sponsoring a
  workshop on computational support for linguistic fieldwork.  The
  workshop will bring together linguists and computational linguists
  committed to empirical research on large datasets, through the
  combination of traditional field methods and new technologies for
  exploring and visualizing complex datasets.  The languages under study
  may range from the undescribed to the well-studied, and the fieldworker
  may operate in a village or a laboratory.  The focus is the exploratory
  mode of research, where elicitation, analysis and hypothesis-testing
  form a tight loop.  The workshop will contribute to the evaluation and
  evolution of methodologies that integrate traditional practices with new
  technologies, leading to increased accessibility, accountability, and
  stability of empirical linguistic research.  Full details, including the
  provisional program, are available at
