The Antonio Zampolli Prize 2008
The European Language Resources Association (ELRA) Board has created
a prize to honour the memory of its first president, Professor Antonio
Zampolli, a pioneer and visionary scientist who was internationally
recognized in the field of Computational Linguistics and Human Language
Technologies (HLT). He also contributed much through the establishment of
ELRA and the LREC conference.
To reflect Antonio Zampolli's specific interest in our field, the Prize will be
awarded to individuals whose work lies within the areas of Language
Resources and Language Technology Evaluation with acknowledged
outstanding contributions to their advancements. See the statutes for details
concerning nominations.
The Prize amount is 10,000€. The recipient(s) will also receive a certificate,
recognition in the ELRA newsletter and will be featured on ELRA's website.
The Prize will be awarded for the third time in May 2008 at the LREC 2008
conference in Marrakesh (May 26 – June 1, 2008). Completed nominations
should be sent to the ELRA President Bente Maegaard ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) and
arrive before November 1st 2007. The ELRA Board receives many very
good nominations, so if we were not able to select your candidate last time,
you are invited to resubmit your nomination.
Yours sincerely
Bente Maegaard
