<h2>About</h2>

<p>
|

Grammatical Framework (GF), <a href="http://www.grammaticalframework.org/">grammaticalframework.org</a>, is a multilingual grammar formalism
|
||||
based on the idea of a shared abstract syntax and mappings between the abstract syntax and
|
||||
concrete languages. GF has hundreds of users all over the world.

This year's special theme of “Scaling up Grammar Resources” means
|
||||
extending the existing resource grammars with the ultimate goal of
|
||||
dealing with any text in the supported languages. Lexicon extension is
|
||||
an obvious part of this work, but also new grammatical constructions
|
||||
are of interest. Porting resources from other open-source approaches,
|
||||
such as WordNets and Apertium, is one method of doing this. And
|
||||
reciprocally, we want to make GF resources easily reusable in other
|
||||
approaches.

The Summer School also has tracks for those interesting in applications (e.g. web and
|
||||
mobile applications, and embedded grammars in C, C++, Haskell, Java, JavaScript, Python), as
|
||||
well as a theory track (parsing, grammar compilation, statistical GF models).

<h2>Preliminary schedule</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>First week (18-23 August):<br/>Introduction to GF and multilingual grammar programming</h3>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Tutorial on using the GF resource grammar library for small applications</li>
|
||||
<li>Tutorial on the GF programming language</li>
|
||||
<li>Tutorial on how to write a miniature resource grammar (morphology, paradigms, syntax)</li>
|
||||
<li>Tutorial on complexity aspects, grammar compilation, portable grammar format</li>
|
||||
<li>Tutorial on using new GF-tools like Eclipse IDE and GF Cloud</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Tutorials will be given in morning sessions; supervised exercises in the
|
||||
afternoon will make the attendants familiar with programming in GF.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Second week (25-30 August):<br/>Advanced work in specialized tracks</h3>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Resource Grammar track: large-scale grammar implementation for a new language</li>
|
||||
<li>Application track: web applications, ontologies</li>
|
||||
<li>Theory track: type theory, parsing, compiler issues</li>
|
||||
<li>Hybrid systems: connection with statistical methods</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
In the mornings, each day is dedicated to a special track, with plenary
|
||||
talks attended by all participants.
|
||||
For the afternoons we want to organize group work on the various tracks,
|
||||
and have the participants choose which group they join. On the last day,
|
||||
results of these groups will be presented to all participants.
