FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS
NAACL-HLT 2010 Workshop on Computational Approaches to Analysis and Generation of Emotion in Text June 5 or 6, Los Angeles, CA http://www.site.uottawa.ca/~diana/naacl2010_EmotionWorkshop.html Submission Deadline: March 01, 2010 The automatic detection of emotions in texts and the generation of texts that express emotions is important for applications such as natural language interfaces, e-learning environments, and educational or entertainment games. These aspects are also important in opinion mining and sentiment analysis, and in the larger area of affective computing. This workshop will provide a forum for discussion between leading names and researchers involved in processing emotions in the context of natural language understanding, natural language generation, or applications in which computational approaches to the processing of emotions are useful. Besides methodologies and techniques for emotion analysis and generation, we also encourage the submission of papers that experiment with and describe applicative contexts in which analysis and detection of affective aspects are useful and beneficial. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - emotion analysis in sentences and documents; - classification of texts by emotion and mood; - the generation of sentences that express emotions; - emotion processing across different languages; - the analysis of sentiment and opinion that contains emotional aspects; - argumentation that includes emotions and opinions; - emotion analysis in automatic speech transcripts; - applications in which affective aspects are beneficial; - other aspects of the computational treatment of emotion and affect. IMPORTANT DATES Mar 1, 2010 Deadline for workshop papers Mar 30, 2010 Notification of acceptance Apr 12, 2010 Camera-ready papers due Jun 5 or 6, 2010 Workshop date Submission instructions: Authors are invited to submit full papers on original, unpublished work in the topic area of this workshop. Submissions should be formatted using the NAACL 2010 stylefiles, with blind review and not exceeding 8 pages plus an extra page for references. The stylefiles are available at http://naaclhlt2010.isi.edu/authors.html The PDF files will be submitted electronically through the NAACL submission system, the link will be available later.
