===Description===
The application of collective intelligence in the domain of language yielded
collaboratively
constructed language resources (CCLR) that can be used in a variety of ways.
The aim of this book is to capture the state-of-the-art in the emerging area of research
on
"Collaboratively constructed language resources." Thus, a point of reference on
the topics of
construction, mining, using and interconnecting collaboratively constructed language
resources
for natural language processing, knowledge discovery and other intelligent applications
will be
created.
Given the appropriateness of the topics, preliminary versions of contributions may be
submitted
in parallel to the 3rd workshop of "The People's Web meets NLP: Collaboratively
Constructed
Semantic Resources and their Applications to NLP."
