GF has hundreds of users all over the world. -</p> -<p> -The GF Resource Grammar Library (RGL) implements the morphology (inflection) and basic syntax -(phrase structure) of some 26 languages: - -Bulgarian, -Catalan, -Chinese, -Danish, -Dutch, -English, -Finnish, -French, -German, -Hindi, -Interlingua, -Japanese, -Italian, -Latvian, -Nepali, -Norwegian bokmål, -Persian, -Polish, -Punjabi, -Romanian, -Russian, -Sindhi, -Spanish, -Swedish, -Thai, and -Urdu. - -These resources are freely available as open-source software. More languages are under construction, -in both in-house and external projects (Greek and Maltese forthcoming by the summer school). -</p> -<p> -We are constantly welcoming new languages, especially from new language families, as well as -EU languages not yet covered by the Resource Grammar Library -(Estonian, Lithuanian, Irish, Czech, Slovak, Hungarian, Slovene, and Portuguese). -Learn more at the <a href="http://www.grammaticalframework.org/lib/doc/status.html">RGL status page</a>. The Summer School is an excellent place to get started with a new language. -</p> -<p> -This year's special theme of “Scaling up Grammar Resources” means -extending the existing resource grammars with the ultimate goal of -dealing with any text in the supported languages. Lexicon extension is -an obvious part of this work, but also new grammatical constructions -are of interest. Porting resources from other open-source approaches, -such as WordNets and Apertium, is one method of doing this. And -reciprocally, we want to make GF resources easily reusable in other -approaches. -</p> -<!-- p> -The Summer School also has tracks for those interesting in applications (e.g. web and -mobile applications, and embedded grammars in C, C++, Haskell, Java, JavaScript, Python), as -well as a theory track (parsing, grammar compilation, statistical GF models). -</p --> - -<h2 id="schedule">Schedule</h2> - -<h3>First week (18-23 August):<br/>Introduction to GF and multilingual grammar programming</h3> -<ul> - <li>Tutorial on using the GF resource grammar library for small applications</li> - <li>Tutorial on the GF programming language</li> - <li>Tutorial on how to write a miniature resource grammar (morphology, paradigms, syntax)</li> - <li>Tutorial on complexity aspects, grammar compilation, portable grammar format</li> - <li>Tutorial on using new GF-tools like Eclipse IDE and GF Cloud</li> -</ul> - -<p> -Tutorials will be given in morning sessions; supervised exercises in the -afternoon will make the attendants familiar with programming in GF. -</p> - -<h3>Second week (25-30 August):<br/>Advanced work in specialized tracks</h3> -<ul> - <li>Resource Grammar track: large-scale grammar implementation for a new language</li> - <li>Application track: web applications, ontologies</li> - <li>Theory track: type theory, parsing, compiler issues</li> - <li>Hybrid systems: connection with statistical methods</li> -</ul> - -<p> -In the mornings, each day is dedicated to a special track, with plenary -talks attended by all participants. -For the afternoons we want to organize group work on the various tracks, -and have the participants choose which group they join.
