conference – ColloCaid

Keynote at the iCETiC 2020 – Emerging Technologies in Computing 2020

Jonathan Roberts — Fri, 09 Oct 2020 14:02:17 +0000

Professor Jonathan C. Roberts gave a keynote at the 3rd International Conference on Emerging Technologies in Computing 2020 (iCETiC ’20). The conference took place on the 19-20 August, 2020. It was originally planned to take place at London Metropolitan University, London, UK, but due to Covid-19 it was moved online. The conference was organised by the International Association of Educators and Researchers (IAER), and is technically co-sponsored by the IEEE UKRI Section, IEEE UKRI ComSoc Chapter, IEEE Bahrain Section, IEEE Bahrain ComSoc Section and the Chester and North wales Branch of the British Computer Society.

Professor Roberts’ keynote was titled “The data visualisation iceberg”. His presentation featured Collocaid as a case study. What the user sees is only part of the whole: they see an interactive user interface with several visualisations, but underneath is a complex carefully-curated database of over 30,000 collocations.

Professor Jonathan C. Roberts gave a keynote at the 3rd IEEE International Conference on Computing, Electronics & Communications Engineering (IEEE iCCECE conference 2020 ’20). The conference was held on the 17 and 18th August, 2020. Originally it was planned to take place at the University of Essex, Southend Campus, UK, but due to Covid-19 the conference went online. His talk titled “Data-visualisation iceberg”, featured ColloCaid. Using our ColloCaid project as a worked case study he explained that the there is a huge quantity of data that underpins ColloCaid that has been carefully curated, and together with the created visualisations represent the data-visualisation iceberg.

ColloCaid at 28th Society for Editors and Proofreaders Conference

Geraint — Mon, 18 Sep 2017 10:44:48 +0000

Collocaid investigator Ana Frankenberg-Garcia presented the seminar “Corpora for Editors” at the 28th Society for Editors and Proofreaders Conference, Wyboston Lakes, 16-18 September 2017. A considerable share of editing and proofreading work is devoted to polishing academic papers, dissertations and theses. Editors and proofreaders can contribute to the development of ColloCaid by reporting the miscollocations they come across with in their day-to-day work. ColloCaid will help editors and proofreaders detect collocation problems in the texts they revise and supply better collocation solutions.
