This is a session of the following conference: 3rd International
Natural Language Generation Conference
Meeting Description:
The Third International Natural Language Generation Conference (INLG
2004) will be held on 14th to 16th July 2004 at Carey's Manor in
Brockenhurst in the middle of the New Forest, UK. The Student Session
will take place on Day 2 of INLG 2004. It is now an established
tradition to have a Student Session at INLG conferences. The main
idea is for students to present work in progress in a constructive
atmosphere and to receive helpful feedback from established
researchers in their field. INLG 2004 immediately precedes ACL 2004
which will be held 21st to 26th July in Barcelona, Spain.
Call for Papers for Student Session
Third International Conference
on Natural Language Generation (INLG 2004)
Conference venue: Careys Manor, New Forest, UK
Host institution: ITRI, University of Brighton, UK
The Association for Computational Linguistics Special Interest Group
on Generation (SIGGEN) invites the submission of papers for the
Student Session at INLG 2004. Student papers are invited on the same
topics as the main session, i.e. all aspects of natural language
generation, including, but not limited to:
* Communicative goal and message specification, content selection
* Text planning, discourse models, argumentation strategies
* Sentence realization, formalisms and models of grammar, sentence
aggregation, lexical choice
* Wide coverage generation
* Knowledge acquisition and resources for generation
* Style and stylistic control of generators
* Architecture of generators
* Multimodal and multimedia generation
* Multilingual generation
* Statistical approaches to generation
* Psychological modelling of language production
* Machine learning methods for generation
* Evaluation methodologies for generation
* Generation for speech synthesis
* Applications of generation, including areas such as document and
data summarization, knowledge management, the semantic web and mobile
computing
Student Session
The Student Session is now an established INLG tradition. The main
idea is for students to present work in progress in a constructive
atmosphere and to receive helpful feedback from established
researchers in their field.
Proceedings
Student Papers will be published in the main proceedings of INLG 2004,
to be published by Springer Verlag as part of the Lecture Notes in
Artificial Intelligence (LNAI) Series
(http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/index.html).
Requirements
Papers should describe original work, either completed or in progress,
and should indicate clearly the state of completion of the reported
results. Wherever appropriate, concrete evaluation results should be
included, and directions for future research should be
indicated. Papers can have more than one author, but all authors must
be students. Evidence of student status may be required for accepted
authors. Students may submit more than one paper, provided the set of
authors is different on each paper, and provided each paper will be
presented by a different student.
A paper submitted to INLG 2004 cannot have previously been published,
and once accepted for INLG 2004 should not be submitted to further
conferences or workshops. Papers that are being submitted to other
conferences or workshops must indicate this.
Reviewing
Reviewing of papers will be blind. Reviewing will be managed by an
international Conference Programme Committee. Each submission will be
reviewed by at least three reviewers. Final decisions on the technical
programme will be made by the Conference Programme Committee chairs.
Submission information
Submissions should follow the style instructions specified in the
LNCS/LNAI Instructions for Authors, and should be converted to PDF
format. Papers must not exceed five (5) pages, including references.
Note: The LNCS/LNAI Instructions for Authors provide templates for
both LaTeX and Word. However, for final submission of accepted papers,
we will have a strong practical preference for LaTeX source to allow
us to construct the compiled document. Authors are therefore urged to
use LaTeX to create submissions from the outset wherever possible.
As reviewing will be blind, the paper should not include the authors'
names and affiliations. In the paper, please insert the paper
registration number (see below) instead of of the authors'
names. Furthermore, self-references that reveal the authors' identity,
e.g., ''We previously showed (Smith, 1991) ...'', should be
avoided. Instead, use citations such as ''Smith previously showed
(Smith, 1991) ...''.
Papers that do not conform to these requirements may be rejected
without review.
Submission procedure
Paper submission will be a web-based two-stage process.
Paper registration
You must submit a notification of submission by filling out the form
provided on the INLG04 submission web page. The authors should fill in
the title of the paper, the authors' names, affiliations, and email
addresses, one or two general topic areas, up to 5 keywords specifying
the subject area, and a short summary (up to 200 words). The authors
should also specify whether the paper is under consideration for other
conferences or workshops, and if so, which ones.
Each submission will be assigned an identification number. Please use
it on all correspondence with the programme committee.
Paper submission
All papers must be submitted electronically at the INLG04 submission
web page. The first page of your paper must include the identification
number obtained from paper registration. The paper must be submitted
no later than the deadline. Papers submitted after that time will not
be reviewed. Papers must be in PDF format.
