NLP workshop in Korea

Microsoft Research Asia invited me to join a NLP workshop held in Korea, so I participated last week. This was the first time for me to join a workshop about NLP, so many things impressed me in various aspects. In fact, several problems that I was facing seem to be solved.

In the workshop I felt that, not surprisingly, many NLP researchers already realized the importance of the Social Web (Esp. Wikipedia) as a corpus for knowledge extraction. There are several good meetings with other active researchers in this research area. Some of them started researches on Wikipedia Mining recently. I believe that 2008 will be an exciting year for Wikipedia research more than last year.
