The
Deep-Thought
Consortium holds its Final Project Review in
Lido di Camaiore (Italy) and receives
high acclaim for its
Heart of Gold integration
and innovative applications; the project has used and improved DELPH-IN
resources and prepares to contribute additional technology to the
open-source repository.
Following the review, the consortium organizes a Roadmap Workshop on future
applications of hybrid text understanding with some 20 participants from
both academia and industry.

As part of an on-going effort to harmonize distribution
and documentation of DELPH-IN resources, the infrastructure relocates to a
new server provided by the Oslo University
MT Research Group.
New services go on-line, including a unified
mailing list manager, concise
web access statistics, and
a wiki forum for
collaborative publishing.

The EU-funded
Deep-Thought Consortium
(coordinated at Saarland University
by Hans Uszkoreit and Melanie Siegel), completes the integration of
its Heart of Gold core
architecture framework, an ensemble of ‘shallow’
and ‘deep’ NLP engines for (currently) six major languages;
see the on-line demonstration.

NTT
Communications Research Laboratories launches a project on parsing
Japanese dictionary definitions using the DELPH-IN JaCY grammar in
conjunction with the LKB, PET, and [incr tsdb()]; based on the LinGO Redwoods
