How can these exploration, visualization and annotation tools contribute to present-day research? What are the limits to these tools and methods, regarding automatic language processing, textometry, lexicometry and data visualization?Submissions are to be sent here before September 25th 2017. They will be independently evaluated by two members of the scientific committee, in accordance to the following criteria: Compliance with the workshop’s general theme, Scientific interest, Clarity of the subject, Technical feasibility.The poster presentations will be held in English, but the flash presentations will be given in either English of French.The scientific committee will follow up on the submissions on October 15th 2017.The contributors will be invited to produce an article for publication, following the workshop.This workshop is organized by the PEPS CNRS/UPE ECLAVIT project.Important dates Deadline for submission: September 25th 2017, Decision of acceptance: October 15th 2017, November 17th 2017: final versions of the poster presentations, November 24th-25th 2017: ECLAVIT Workshop.Presentation format:Poster presentations: The authors whose presentations are selected will be asked to send their posters in PDF format so that they can be uploaded to the workshop’s website.
