              Semantic Web and Natural Language Processing
                   Starting date: As soon as possible

         ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Research Group in Computational Linguistics, Synalp/LORIA [1] in
Nancy (France) is looking to fill a two-year researcher position
starting as soon as possible.

The position is available in the EU funded ModelWriter project [2] and
is concerned with exploring connections between the semantic web and
natural language processing. The successful candidate will work on
semantic parsing (mapping text to e.g., RDF data) and natural language
generation (mapping e.g., RDF data to text). For more details, see
http://www.loria.fr/~gardent/job-add.html

Prerequisite is a PhD degree or a Master in computational linguistics,
computer science, or a related field. Candidates are expected to have
some knowledge of natural language processing and solid programming
skills. Knowledge of English is mandatory and prior experience in
machine learning or in semantic web technologies is a plus. There are no
teaching obligations.

Please send applications (a single PDF file containing a motivation
letter, CV, list of publications and research statement) by email to
Claire Gardent [3] (claire.gardent@loria.fr). Applications received by
April 15, 2015 will receive full consideration. The position is open
until filled. For further information, send an email to Claire Gardent
(claire.gardent@loria.fr).
