Background:
The need for large linguistically interpreted (annotated) corpora keeps growing in an increasing number of applications and research tasks in the field of computational linguistics. Many groups have started to create corpus resources for a variety of languages and domains. These corpora are used for a broad range of different applications and theoretical investigations. This workshop aims at bringing together these activities in order to facilitate advanced and efficient corpus annotation providing re-usable resources.
