Special Issue on Advances in Natural Language Processing

Co-editors:
Fabio Ciravegna University of Sheffield, UK
Sanda Harabagiu , University of Texas at Dallas, USA
The inherent complexity of processing human language imposes several
challenging difficulties for the integration of the Natural Language
Processing (NLP) technology in current systems. This special issue
intends to present the state-of-the-art in Natural Language Technology
when applied to either text or speech processing. We invite original
and high quality submission reporting on NLP applications or
describing implemented NLP systems either in isolation or as part of
broader systems.
Areas of interest include but are not limited to:
Question answering
Information Extraction
Dialogue
Summarization and generation
Machine translation
In particular we welcome papers focusing on:
Applications involving the use of NLP;
Opportunities for the use of NLP;
Challenges and requirements of current state-of-the-art Natural
Language Processing techniques (e.g. portability, robustness,
efficiency and effectiveness issues);
Novel applications of NLP techniques.
Schedule:
----------
September 15, 2002: Deadline for submission.

5th AUSTRALASIAN NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING WORKSHOP
(ANLP2002)
Second Call for Papers
Workshop: 2nd December 2002
Submissions due: 31st July 2002
Canberra, Australia
http://www.clt.mq.edu.au/Events/Conferences/anlp2002
PURPOSE
A one-day workshop on Natural Language Processing will be held in
conjunction with the Australian AI conference (AI'02) in Canberra:
http://www.cs.adfa.edu.au/~abbass/AI02/index.html
The goals of the workshop are:
* to bring together the growing NLP community in Australia and New
Zealand;
* to provide an opportunity for the broader artificial
intelligence community to become aware of local NLP research;
* to provide a forum for discussion of new research;
* to foster interaction between academic and industrial research.
Our hope is to get as many Australasian NLPers together as possible to
encourage dialogue between those working on similar topics and between
areas with a - perhaps as yet untapped - potential to interact.
The workshop proceedings will be published with an ISBN number.
TOPIC
We invite the submission of papers on substantial, original, and
unpublished research on all aspects of natural language processing,
including, but not limited to:
* speech understanding and generation;
* phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics, and
discourse;
* interpreting and generating spoken and written language;
* linguistic, mathematical, and psychological models of language;
* language-oriented information extraction and retrieval;
* corpus-based and statistical language modeling;
* machine translation and translation aids;
* natural language interfaces and dialogue systems;
* message and narrative understanding systems;
* computational lexicography.
We welcome submissions on any topic that is of interest to the NLP
community, but we particularly encourage submissions that broaden the
scope of our community through the consideration of practical NLP
applications. We especially invite people from industry working on NLP
to send us their submissions and offer an opportunity to discuss and
demonstrate their latest applications in front of an informed
audience.
PROGRAM COMMITTEE
* Diego Molla-Aliod, Macquarie University (Co-chair)
* Sabine Geldof, Macquarie University (Co-chair)
* Dominique Estival, Human Systems Integration Group, DSTO (AU)
* Alistair Knott, University of Otago (NZ)
* Christopher Manning, Stanford University (USA)
* Cecile Paris, CSIRO (AU)
* Jon Patrick, University of Sydney (AU)
* Graeme Ritchie, University of Edinburgh (UK)
* Peter Wallis, University of Melbourne (AU)
* Eric Wehrli, University of Geneva (CH)
SUBMISSION FORMAT
The length of the submissions should not exceed 8 pages, printed
single-spaced in 11 point font. For the camera-ready version of the
papers, please follow the instructions detailed on the workshop's
homepage (instructions for authors).
The first page of your submission should include:
- paper title,
- author name(s) and affiliation,
- complete addresses including email address and fax number,
- keywords,
- abstract.
Only electronic submissions of PDF or PostScript files will be
accepted. If we cannot print your file by the submission date it will
be rejected without being reviewed. Therefore you are encouraged to
send an early version with the typographical complexity of your final
intended version so that we can check it is printable. Electronic
submissions should be sent to anlp-submit at ics.mq.edu.au.
IMPORTANT DATES
Paper submission: Wednesday 31st July 2002
Notification of acceptance: Monday 16th September 2002
Camera-ready copy: Wednesday 16th October 2002
Workshop: 2nd December 2002
