Section: Application Domains

Introduction

Our applicative domains concern natural language processing applications that rely on a deep semantic analysis. For instance, one may cite the following ones:

• textual entailment and inference;

• dialogue systems;

• semantic-oriented query systems;

• content analysis of unstructured documents;

• text transformation and automatic summarization;

• (semi) automatic knowledge acquisition.

However, if the need for semantics seems to be ubiquitous. There is a challenge in finding applications for which a deep semantic analysis results in a real improvement over non semantic-based techniques.
