Techno-langue: The French National Initiative for Human Language Technologies (HLT)
Proceedings of the Fifth International Conference on Language Resources and Evaluation (LREC 2006)
Abstract
Techno-langue is the French National Program on HLT supported by the French Ministries in charge of Research, Industry and Culture. It addresses four action lines: creating basic language and software resources, organizing evaluation campaigns, participating in the standardization process and creating a Web Portal for disseminating information and surveys to a large audience. This paper presents the main results of the program and an ongoing initiative for launching a transnational program at the European level on a similar basis.
