| Resumen |
CICLing 2016 was the 17th International Conference on Intelligent Text Processing and Computational Linguistics. The CICLing conferences provide a wide-scope forum for discussion of the art and craft of natural language processing research, as well as the best practices in its applications. In 2015, Adam Kilgarriff, an influential scientist and a wonderful and brave person, passed away prematurely, at the age of only 55. Adam was a great friend of CICLing, a member of its small informal Steering Committee, one who helped to shape CICLing from its inception. Until his last days, already terminally ill, he volunteered to help us with the reviewing process for CICLing 2015. This CICLing event was dedicated to his bright memory, and its proceedings begin with a paper that attempts to summarize his scientific legacy. This set of two books contains five invited papers and a selection of regular papers accepted for presentation at the conference. Since 2001, the proceedings of the CICLing conferences have been published in Springer’s Lecture Notes in Computer Science series as volumes 2004, 2276, 2588, 2945, 3406, 3878, 4394, 4919, 5449, 6008, 6608, 6609, 7181, 7182, 7816, 7817, 8403, 8404, 9041, and 9042. The set has been structured into 14 sections: an In Memoriam section and 13 sections representative of the current trends in research and applications of natural language processing. |
