Objective
The ELSNET Networks has the objective of providing a framework to coordinate European research and post-graduate training activities wich promote the development of speech and natural language (NL) technology. The long-term goal which motivates the Networks is the construction of integrated multilingual speech and natural language systems with unrestricted coverage of both spoken and written language. The problem of integrating techniques from speech and natural language processing is particularly central, as is the aim of reconciling the opposed methodological positions which tend to hinder fruitful interdisciplinary cooperation between the two research communities.
The project has the objective of providing a framework to coordinate European research and postgraduate training activities which promote the development of speech and natural language (NL) technology. The problem of integrating techniques from speech and natural language processing is particularly central, as is the aim of reconciling the opposed methodological positions which tend to hinder fruitful interdisciplinary cooperation between the 2 research communities. The project represents an extensive pool of expertise and research experience, ranging from advanced techniques in speech analysis and production through language modelling and robust parsing to sophisticated dialogue and discourse representation.
ELSNET represent an extensive pool of expertise and research experience, ranging from advanced techniques in speech analysis and production through language modeling and robust parsing to sophisticated dialogue and discourse representation. During the first year of its life , it has begun to be recognized as an important actor in scientific, infrastructure and research planning initiatives within Europe and has established valuable links with corresponding actors in countris outside Europe.
The Network's main activities are organised around four Task Groups concerned with Research Coordination, Training and Mobility, Linguistic and Speech Resources and Industrial Links: more information about these can be obtained from the coordinator. In addition to the 38 Associate Nodes and 47 Industrial Affiliates, there are 9 Managing Nodes with particular responsibility for their respective countries, and these also provide important access points to the Networks.
The Networks encourages participation from teams in academic and industrial research laboratories in both EC and EFTA countries.
ELSNET is continuing as ELSNET (6295)
Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)
CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: The European Science Vocabulary.

Funding Scheme
Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.
