- (Netherlands) Information and Language Processing Systems group, Amsterdam
- Formerly part of the Institute for Logic, Language and Computation (ILLC), Maarten de Rijke's group is now part of the Informatics institute, still at the University of Amsterdam. Research within the ILPS group is aimed at intelligent information access, especially in the face of massive amounts of information. Addressing this task requires synergy between IR techniques, AI research, and language technology.

- (Spain) UNED NLP Group, Madrid
- Natural Language Group at the Spanish National Distance University (UNED). Research on natural language processing applied to information access, evaluation of information access systems, and acquisition and representation of lexical and grammatical knowledge.
- 243
- (Spain) Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya's Natural Language Processing Research Group
- Main research fields are related to the use of multilingual lexical resources, information extraction from documents, design of NL interfaces, basic NLP techniques (tagging, parsing, sense disambiguation), NL understanding and Knowledge Representation. Tools and demos available.

- 247
- (UK) Natural Language Generation Group at the Open University
- The NLG Group at the Open University is a research team focusing on Flexible Information Presentation, Conceptual Authoring and other approaches related to Natural Language Generation. The group is led by Donia Scott (formerly director of ITRI) and was established in mid-2005. Former research results of group members include WYSIWYM and RAGS.
