SHARED TASK DESCRIPTION
We are excited to organize the first shared task in Native Language Identification (NLI) which is the task of identifying the native language (L1) of a writer based solely on a sample of their writing. The task is framed as a classification problem where the set of L1s is known a priori. Most work has focused on identifying the native language of writers learning English as a second language. This problem has been growing in popularity and has motivated several ACL, NAACL and EMNLP papers, as well as a master's and doctorate thesis.

Part of Generation Challenges 2011
Endorsed by SIGGEN and SIGSEM
We invite you to participate in the next edition of the Challenges on Generating Instructions in Virtual Environments (GIVE) by submitting an NLG system for the GIVE scenario. In this scenario, a human user performs a "treasure hunt" task in a virtual 3D environment. The NLG system's job is to generate, in real time, a sequence of natural-language instructions that will help the user perform this task.
