- Semantic Role Labelling evaluated at Senseval-3
- Textual Entailment evaluated at the PASCAL Challenge
- Web FAQ mining and retrieval: a demo of our question answering system that finds answers in FAQ web pages; the FAQ data is available here
- Information access in Wikipedia: we organized the WiQA pilot at CLEF 2006
