Introduction to the Special Issue: Selected papers from LREC 2018.

Broux et al. focus on evaluation, evaluating human corrections in a computer-assisted speaker diarization system and introduce a metric to evaluate correction cost, and Woli'nski et al. discuss how using three interrelated linguistic resources (parser, treebank, valency dictionary) for Polish enabled corrections in each. The papers included in this special issue demonstrate that the types of resources of interest in the field as well as methods for their construction continue to evolve. Thirty-nine papers were invited to the special issue; of those, nine full-length journal papers and three project notes are included here. [Extracted from the article]
