Call For Papers

=============================================================
First Call for Papers – COLING 2016
----------------------------------------------

The 26th International Conference on Computational Linguistics
December 11-16, 2016
Osaka, Japan.

http://coling2016.anlp.jp/

The International Committee on Computational Linguistics (ICCL) is pleased to announce the 26th International Conference on Computational Linguistics (COLING 2016), in Osaka, Japan, at the Osaka International Convention Center (OICC) (located in Nakanoshima in the center of Osaka).

COLING 2016 will cover a broad spectrum of technical areas related to natural language and computation. The conference will include full papers (presented as oral presentations or posters), demonstrations, tutorials, and workshops. Oral and poster presentations of full papers will not be distinguished in the proceedings of the conference.

We invite the submission of papers on original and unpublished research on all aspects of computational linguistics.

Topics include, but are not limited to:

- Pragmatics, discourse, semantics, syntax, grammar and the lexicon;
- Lexical semantics and ontologies;
- Word segmentation, tagging and chunking;
- Parsing, syntactic and semantic;
- Semantic role labeling;
- Discourse relations;
- Dialogue and conversational agents;
- Language generation;
- Summarization;
- Question answering;
- Paraphrasing and textual entailment;
- Multilingual processing, machine translation and translation aids;
- Information retrieval, information extraction and knowledge base linking;
- Sentiment analysis, opinion mining and social media;
- Speech recognition, text-to-speech and spoken language understanding;
- Multimodal systems and representations;
- Applications;
- Tools in aid of NLP tasks and applications;
- Corpus development and language resources;
- System evaluation methodology and metrics;
- Machine learning for natural language;
- Cognitive, mathematical and computational models of language processing;
- Models of communication by language.

In all relevant areas, we encourage authors to include analysis of the influence of theories (intuitions, methodologies, insights), to
technologies (computational algorithms, methods, tools, data), and/or contributions of technologies to theory development. In technologically
oriented papers, we encourage in-depth analysis and discussion of errors made in the experiments described, if possible linking them to the
presence or absence of linguistically-motivated features. Contributions that display and rigorously discuss future potential, even if
not (yet) attested in standard evaluation, are welcome.

ABOUT COLING
-­-­-­-­-­-­-­-­-­-­-­-------------

The COLING conference has a history that dates back to the 1960s. The conference is held every two years and regularly attracts more than 700 delegates. The 1st conference was held in New York, 1965. Since then, the conference has developed into one of the premier Natural Language Processing conferences worldwide. The last five conferences were held in Sydney (COLING -­ ACL 2006), Manchester (COLING 2008), Beijing (COLING 2010), Mumbai (COLING 2012), and Dublin (COLING 2014).
