International Workshop on Semantic Evaluation 2016

SemEval (Semantic Evaluation) is an ongoing series of evaluations of computational semantic analysis systems, organized under the umbrella of SIGLEX, the Special Interest Group on the Lexicon of the Association for Computational Linguistics. SemEval has evolved from the SensEval word sense disambiguation evaluation series. The SemEval wikipedia entry (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SemEval) provides a more detailed historial overview. SemEval-2016 will be the 10th workshop on semantic evaluation and will be collocated with the 15th Annual Conference of the North American Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics: Human Language Technologies.  SemEval will be held in San Diego, California, June 16-17, 2016 at the Sheraton San Diego Hotel & Marina.
