Call for Submission of Extended Abstracts CLARIN Annual Conference 2023
CLARIN ERIC is pleased to announce the CLARIN Annual Conference 2023 [1]
and calls for the submission of extended abstracts. CLARIN is the
European research infrastructure that makes digital language resources
available to scholars, researchers, students and citizen-scientists from
a wide range of disciplines, coordinates the collection of language
resources and tools, and offers advanced tools to explore, exploit,
annotate, analyse or combine such datasets, regardless of their
location.
Submission deadline: 14 April 2023
Location
After the successful hybrid edition of 2022, we plan to repeat the same
format in 2023. The CLARIN Conference 2023 will be a face-to-face event,
which will also be fully accessible virtually. The conference will take
place in the historic city of Leuven, Belgium, at the heritage campus of
the Irish College [2]. The event will be hosted and organised by CLARIN
ERIC, in collaboration with KU Leuven, [3]CLARIN-BE [4]and the
Instituut voor Nederlandse Taal [5].

plans for future developments. The programme will cover a range of
topics, including the design, construction and operation of the CLARIN
infrastructure, the data, tools and services that it contains or should
contain, its actual use by researchers, teachers or interested parties,
its relation to other infrastructures and projects, and the CLARIN
Knowledge Infrastructure.

* User assistance (help desks, user manuals, FAQs)
* CLARIN portals and outreach to users
* Videos, screencasts, recorded lectures
* Researcher training activities, hackathons
* Knowledge infrastructure centres.
CLARIN vis-à-vis other Infrastructures and Initiatives:

the collaboration under the umbrella of the SSH Open Cluster [8], etc.
* Generic infrastructural initiatives, such asEOSC [9], Europeana
[10], Language Data Space, etc.
* Projects such as EOSC Future [11], FAIRCORE4EOSC [12] and TRIPLE
[13]
* National and regional initiatives
Format of the Programme Sessions
The programme of the conference will include oral presentations and
posters, and may also include demos. Papers are allocated a presentation
format based on the suitability of the paper for the type of session
(i.e. more or less interactive), not based on their quality or other
factors. Authors of accepted submissions will be offered the opportunity
to demo their work in addition to their presentation.
Submissions
The language of the conference is English and presentations will be made
in English. Proposals for oral, poster or demo presentations must be
submitted as extended abstracts (length: 3 to 4 pages A4, including
references) in PDF format, in accordance with the template (ZIP-archive
[14], Overleaf template [15]). Authors can choose whether to submit on
an anonymous or non-anonymous basis.
Extended abstracts should address one or more topics that are relevant
to CLARIN's activities, resources, tools or services. This relevance
should be explicitly articulated in the submission, as well as in the
presentation at the conference. Contributions addressing desiderata for
the CLARIN infrastructure that are currently not in place are also
eligible. It is not required for authors to be or have been directly
involved in national or cross-national CLARIN projects.
Extended abstracts must be submitted through the EasyChair submission
system [16] and will be reviewed by the Programme Committee. All
proposals will be reviewed on the basis of the following criteria:
* Appropriateness: The contribution must pertain to the CLARIN
infrastructure or be relevant for it (e.g. its use, design,
construction, operation, exploitation, illustration of possible
applications, etc.), and this relevance should be explicitly articulated
in the submission.
* Soundness and correctness: The content must be technically and
factually correct and methods must be scientifically sound, according to
best practice, and preferably evaluated.
* Meaningful comparison: The abstract must indicate that the author is
aware of alternative approaches, if any, and highlight relevant
differences.
* Substance: Concrete work and experiences will be given preference
over ideas and plans.
* Impact: Contributions with a higher impact on the research community
and society more broadly will be given preference over papers with lower
impact.
* Clarity: The abstract should be clearly written and well structured.
* Timeliness and novelty: The work must convey relevant new knowledge
to the audience at this event.
Attendance
For each accepted abstract, one author will be granted reimbursement of
travel costs up to 220 Euros, free accommodation and meals (conditional
on the event taking place face-to-face; this does not apply if the
conference needs to shift to a virtual format due to epidemiological
reasons).Proceedings
Accepted submissions will be published in the online conference Book of
Extended Abstracts, ISSN: 2773-2177. After the conference, the author(s)
of accepted submissions will be invited to submit full papers (10-12
pages) to be reviewed according to the same criteria as the abstracts.
Accepted full papers will be published in a digital conference
proceedings volume after the conference: Linköping Electronic Conference
