Second Call for Papers: NAACL HLT 2010 Student Research Workshop

June 1-6, 2010, Los Angeles, CA

http://naaclhlt2010.isi.edu/srw.html

Submission deadline: February 15, 2010

1. General Invitation for Submissions

The Student Research Workshop (SRW) is an established tradition at ACL
conferences. The workshop provides a venue for student researchers
investigating topics in computational linguistics and natural language
processing to present their work and receive feedback from a general
audience as well as from panelists. The panelists are experienced
researchers who will prepare in-depth comments and questions in
advance of the presentation.

We invite student researchers to submit their work to this workshop.
Since the SRW is an excellent testing ground for your ideas before an
international audience of experts, the emphasis of the workshop will
be on work in progress. Admissible research can derive from any topic
area within computational linguistics and can be applicable to either
speech or text. A list of topic areas is provided in the Call for
Papers for the NAACL HLT 2010 Conference and is available at:

http://naaclhlt2010.isi.edu/cfp.html

We invite the submission of both full (6 pages) and short (4 pages)
papers. The short papers will only be considered for poster
presentations.


2. Submission Requirements

The emphasis of the workshop is original and unpublished research. The
papers should describe original work in progress. Students who have
decided on their thesis direction but still have significant research
left to do are particularly encouraged to submit papers.

Since the main purpose of presenting at the workshop is to exchange
ideas with other researchers and to receive helpful feedback for
further development of the work, papers should clearly indicate
directions for future research wherever appropriate.  All authors of
multi-author papers MUST be students. Papers submitted for this
workshop are eligible only if they have not been presented at any
other meeting with publicly available published proceedings. Students
who have already presented at an ACL/EACL/NAACL Student Research
Workshop may not submit to this workshop. These students should submit
their papers to the main conference instead.


3. Submission Procedure

Submission will be electronic using the paper submission web page below:

https://www.softconf.com/naaclhlt2010/srw/

Submissions should follow the two-column format of ACL proceedings and
should not exceed 6 pages (4 pages for short papers), including
references. We strongly recommend the use of ACL LaTeX style files or
Microsoft Word style files tailored for this year's conference. These
files are available at:

http://naaclhlt2010.isi.edu/authors.html

A description of the format is available there in case you are unable
to use these style files directly. All submissions must be electronic:
please use the submission website above to submit your paper.


4. Reviewing Procedure

The review procedure of papers submitted to the Student Workshop will
be managed by the Student Research Workshop Co-Chairs, with the
assistance of a team of reviewers. Each submission will be matched
with a mixed panel of student and senior researchers for review. The
final acceptance decision will be based on the results of these
reviews. The review process is double-blind; therefore, please ensure
that your paper shows the title, but no other information that can
identify the author(s).  For example, rather than this: ''We showed
previously (Smith, 2001), ...'', use citations such as: ''Smith (2001)
previously showed ...''.


5. Schedule

The papers must be submitted no later than 11:59 EST, February 15,
2010. No papers received after this deadline will be accepted.
Acknowledgment will be emailed soon after receipt. Notification of
acceptance will be sent to authors (by email) on March 30, 2010.
Detailed formatting guidelines for the preparation of the final
camera-ready copy will be provided to authors with their acceptance
notice.

Important Dates:

  * Papers due: February 15, 2010
  * Notification of acceptance: March 30, 2010
  * Camera ready papers due: April 12, 2010
  * Conference date: June 1-6, 2010

The Student Research Workshop will be held during the NAACL HLT 2010 conference.
