  3. COCOSDA/WRITE Roadmap Conclusions – Thematic Priorities • Data collection, more data, many modalities, varieties, .. • languages need more coverage, need more data, costly, no single company can afford • to support also basic linguistic description & documentation • BLARK + entry-level Blarkette: be proactive • Annotation as a science: systematise • basic research on semantic annotation • Levels of metadata • Cross-mediality in multimedia content processing • Knowledge across modalities • Multilinguality, e.g. for cross-language info access • Multilinguality across culture: Pragmatic layer with cultural & social aspects • Translation technology to become an enabling technology COCOSDA/WRITE - LREC. Genova, 2006

  4. COCOSDA/WRITE Roadmap Conclusions – Thematic Priorities • Information access: need better LRs: coverage, richness, quality • Intrinsic & extrinsic evaluation: combination needed • Subjectivity, • Community –based ontology, domain-specific, multi-faceted… • Standardisation & Sustainability of Standards • Harmonisation of existing semantic LRs • Distributed development in wiki style • Dynamic named entity • Language Identification • ..

  5. COCOSDA/WRITE Roadmap Infrastructural/Political Priorities • Quality insurance & measures, only relative to the task • Evaluation infrastructure, central neutral store for descriptors, a validation wiki; agency? • Open source platforms, sharing, wiki-mode • LR freely available • Cross-disciplinarity • Links with study of language & linguists: need of an infrastructure • Join communities, cooperation, coordination • Infrastructure/services for a broad community, also with linguists, humanities, getting LR&T out of the domain of experts COCOSDA/WRITE - LREC.
