## Call for papers

The Global Wordnet Association is pleased to announce that the 11th International Global Wordnet Conference (GWC2021) will be held from 18 to 21 January 2021 in Pretoria, South Africa. The conference will be hosted by the South African Centre for Digital Language Resources (SADiLaR). Due to the uncertainty of what will be the circumstances during the conference as a result of COVID-19, the venue and format of conference presentation will be announced in due course. COVID19 Pandemic Please note that given the current global pandemic and the uncertainty surrounding international travel in January 2021, the organisers are also preparing a virtual conference as contingency. A final announcement as to the format of GWC2021 will be made in October 2020. Should the conference be hosted as a virtual event, a combination of the approaches successfully implemented by RAIL2020 and LREC2020 will be used as roadmap – authors will be asked to prerecord their presentations which will be streamed during a live virtual event with opportunity for questions and discussions after each presentation; proceedings will also be published and a reduced registration fee will be applicable. Conference Topics Contributions are invited on all aspects of wordnets, including but not limited to: Lexical semantics and meaning representation Critical analysis and applications of lexical and semantic relations Proposed new relations Definitions, semantic components, co-occurrence and frequency statistics Word and Sense Embeddings Necessity and completeness issues Ontology and wordnet Other lexicographical and lexicological questions pertaining to wordnet-style meaning representation Wordnets and Linked Open Data (LOD) Architecture of lexical databases Language independent and language dependent components Integration of multi-wordnets in research infrastructures (like CLARIN) and LT networks (like META-NET) Tools and Methods for wordnet development User and Data entry interfaces Methods for constructing, extending and enriching wordnets Applications of wordnet Word sense disambiguation Machine translation Information extraction and retrieval Document structuring and categorisation Automatic hyperlinking Language pedagogy Psycholinguistic applications Standardization, distribution and availability of wordnets and wordnet tools.
