Full Title: TSD 2016 : Text, Speech and Dialogue 

Date: 12-Sep-2016 - 16-Sep-2016
Location: Brno, Czech Republic 
Contact Person: Aleš Horák
Meeting Email: tsd2016 at tsdconference.org
Web Site: http://www.tsdconference.org/tsd2016 

Linguistic Field(s): Computational Linguistics; Discourse Analysis; Text/Corpus Linguistics 

Call Deadline: 22-Mar-2016 

Meeting Description:

TSD 2016 will address the following topics within the field of natural
language processing: 

- Corpora, texts and transcription 
- Speech analysis, recognition and synthesis 
- Their intertwining within NL dialogue systems 

Topics of the TSD 2016 Conference will include (but are not limited to): 

- Corpora and Language Resources (monolingual, multilingual, text and spoken
corpora, large web corpora, disambiguation, specialized lexicons,
dictionaries) 
- Speech Recognition (multilingual, continuous, emotional speech, handicapped
speaker, out-of-vocabulary words, alternative way of feature extraction, new
models for acoustic and language modelling) 
- Tagging, Classification and Parsing of Text and Speech (morphological and
syntactic analysis, synthesis and disambiguation, multilingual processing,
sentiment analysis, credibility analysis, automatic text labeling,
summarization, authorship attribution) 
- Speech and Spoken Language Generation (multilingual, high fidelity speech
synthesis, computer singing) 
- Semantic Processing of Text and Speech (information extraction, information
retrieval, data mining, semantic web, knowledge representation, inference,
ontologies, sense disambiguation, plagiarism detection) 
- Integrating Applications of Text and Speech Processing (natural language
understanding, question-answering strategies, assistive technologies) 
- Machine Translation (statistical, rule-based, example-based, hybrid, text
and speech translation) 
- Automatic Dialogue Systems (self-learning, multilingual, question-answering
systems, dialogue strategies, prosody in dialogues) 
- Multimodal Techniques and Modelling (video processing, facial animation,
visual speech synthesis, user modelling, emotions and personality modelling)

2nd Call for Papers:

Submission Deadlines:

- March 15 2016: Submission of abstracts
- March 22 2016: Submission of full papers

Submission of abstract serves for better organization of the review process
only - for the actual review a full paper submission is necessary.

TSD Series:

TSD series evolved as a prime forum for interaction between researchers in
both spoken and written language processing from all over the world.
Proceedings of TSD form a book published by Springer-Verlag in their Lecture
Notes in Artificial Intelligence (LNAI) series.  TSD Proceedings are regularly
indexed by Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index.  Moreover,
LNAI series are listed in all major citation databases such as DBLP, SCOPUS,
EI, INSPEC or COMPENDEX.

The TSD 2016 conference will be accompanied by a one-day satellite workshop.

Community-based Building of Language Resources, CBBLR

The main topic of the workshop is directed at building new language resources,
especially for languages with no or too little existing
language resources.  The workshop is organized in cooperation with the HaBiT
CZ-NO project Consortium, submissions from other resource development projects
are more than welcomed.  The workshop submissions will undergo two separate
review processes - the best papers which will succeed in both review processes
(by the TSD 2016 Conference PC and CBBLR Workshop 2016 PC) will be published
in the TSD 2016 Springer Proceedings, all other accepted CBBLR workshop papers
will be published in a separate proceedings with ISBN.  The CBBLR workshop
will take place on September 12 2016 in the conference venue.

The TSD 2016 conference will be directly followed by a meeting of the working
groups and management committee of the 

ISCH COST Action IS 1305
European Network of e-Lexicography (ENeL) 
http://www.elexicography.eu/
