                                    on
            STYLISTIC ANALYSIS OF TEXT FOR INFORMATION ACCESS

    HOW something is expressed, as opposed to WHAT is expressed is a
    many-faceted and elusive, yet intuitively important and patent
    characteristic of human linguistic expression.

    This workshop will discuss issues in the automatic analysis and
    extraction of stylistic variation of natural language texts --
    especially but not exclusively addressing concerns related to
    information access.

    Major questions include:

        Style in Theory: What is style?

        Style in Engineering: How is style analyzable?

        Style in Applications: What tasks can stylistic information be
        used for?

        Style in Research: What tools and resources do you use, and can
        we use them too?

    We encourage submissions from researchers working on all kinds of
    style-related problems!

    SUBMISSION DEADLINE: May 20
    ORGANIZERS: Shlomo Argamon, Jussi Karlgren, Jimi Shanahan
