Workshop on Induction of Linguistic Structure

Welcome to the homepage of the NAACL-HLT 2012 Workshop on Induction of Linguistic Structure. This workshop addresses the challenges of learning in an unsupervised or minimally supervised context with questions of linguistic structure. It encompasses many popular themes in computational linguistics and machine learning, including grammar induction, shallow syntax induction (e.g., parts of speech), learning semantics, learning the structure of documents and discourses, and learning relations within multilingual text collections. Unlike supervised settings, where annotated training data is available, unsupervised induction is considerably more difficult, both in terms of modelling and evaluation.
