Dear all, (apologies for cross-posting)
with the almost finished standardization of the ITS 2.0
(http://www.w3.org/TR/its20/), we are also close to provide a complete
NIF 2.0 specification.
WS 1 is a more general tutorial held in conjunction with the LSWT and WS
2 is a more specialized workshop with developers and expert discussions
and coding. While the former is for teaching and dissemination the
latter is for advancing NIF and NER benchmarking and community meet and
greet.
*WS 1, 24.9.2013, Leipzig: Content Analysis and the Semantic Web (Tutorial)*
held in conjunction with the Leipziger Semantic Web Tag
(http://aksw.org/lswt)
Session 1: Semantic Web and NLP - Sebastian Hellmann, INFAI
Session 2 & 3: Relation Extraction and Opinion Mining - Feiyu Xu, DFKI
Session 4: Interactive session, Q&A, hands-on

*WS 2, 9.10.2013, Prague: NIF workshop: An open benchmark for
Wikipedia-Based NER*
held in conjunction with the LOD2 plenary meeting (http://lod2.eu)
The NLP Interchange Format (NIF) 2.0 is currently created and is taking
shape <http://persistence.uni-leipzig.org/nlp2rdf/>[1]. One large topic
is to create interoperable Named Entity Recognition and Linking tools
and corpora to ease the engineering burden, when benchmarking such
systems. This workshop is a developer meeting to talk about:
* NIF & NER: how currently NIF meets the needs of the NER community,
and what is missing? Is it feasible to create a universal best practice?
* NIF & GATE: whether and how can NIF be incorporated in GATE?
* NIF & GATE NER eval framework: brainstorming on ideas for future
research on how multilingual NER tools can be evaluated with support
of GATE, DBpedia and possibly NIF.

all the best,
Sebastian
