Reseña del editor

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Colloquium on Grammatical Inference, ICGI 2008, held in Saint-Malo, France, in September 2008. The 21 revised full papers and 8 revised short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 36 submissions. The topics of the papers presented vary from theoretical results of learning algorithms to innovative applications of grammatical inference, and from learning several interesting classes of formal grammars to applications to natural language processing.

Reseña del editor

The 9th International Colloquium on Grammatical Inference (ICGI 2008) was held at the Palaisdu Grand Large, Saint Malo, France during September 22–24, 2006. ICGI 2008 was the ninth in a series of successful biennial international conferences in the area of grammatical inference. Previous meetings were held in Essex, UK; Alicante, Spain; Montpellier, France; Ames, Iowa, USA; Lisbon, Portugal; Amsterdam, The Netherlands; Athens, Greece; Tokyo, Japan. This series of conferences seeks to provide a forum for presentation and discussion of original research papers on all aspects of grammatical inference. Grammatical inference, the study of learning grammars from data, is an - tablished research?eld in arti?cialintelligence,dating backto the 1960sandhas been extensively addressed by researchersin automata theory, language acqui- tion, computational linguistics, machine learning, pattern recognition,compu- tional learning theory and neural networks. ICGI 2008 particularly emphasized themulti-disciplinarynatureoftheresearch?eldandthediversedomainsinwhich grammaticalinferenceisbeingapplied,suchasnaturallanguageacquisition,c- putationalbiology,structuralpatternrecognition,informationretrieval,Webm- ing,text processing,data compressionandadaptiveintelligentagents. We received 36 high-quality papers from 15 countries around the world. The papers were reviewed by three reviewers. Based on the positive comments of the reviewers, 21 full papers were accepted. In addition, we decided to accept eight short papers for poster presentation. Short papers appear as extended abstracts in a separate section of this volume. The topics of the accepted papers vary from theoretical results of learning algorithms to innovative applications of grammatical inference, and from learning several interesting classes of formal grammars to applications to natural language processing.
