About the Speaker 講者簡介
Chu-Ren Huang is a research fellow at the Institute of Linguistics, Academia Sinica. He is the vice president of the Linguistic Society of Taiwan. His current roles in international research community include: advisory board member of the Open Language Archives Community (OLAC), and co-chair of the Asian Language Resource Committee.
Huang received his Ph.D. in linguistics from Cornell University in January 1987. Since then, he has played an active role to promote research on Chinese computational and corpus linguistics. He is one of the founding members of ROCLING and served both as its president and executive secretary. He has directed or co-directed the successful construction of the following Chinese language resources: CKIP lexicon, Sinica Corpus, Classical Chinese Corpora, and Sinica Treebank. The focus of his linguistic research has shifted from earlier work on GPSG and LFG to recent emphasis on lexical semantics, which led to the development of the MARVS theory. Both lines of research converge on his current work on developing an integrated Chinese WordNet and ontology. This will be an essential component of the linguistic anchor project under Taiwan's NDAP, as well as an important link in the global LanguageWeb in anticipation of the future Semantic Web.
