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

Call Deadline: 25-Jan-2017 

Meeting Description:

In general, we are interested in whatever helps, will help eventually, or
might help computers meaningfully deal with language data.

The conference is intended to encourage exchange of opinions between the
scientists working in different areas of the growing field of computational
linguistics and intelligent text and speech processing. Our idea is to get a
general view of the state of art in computational linguistics and its
applications.

Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, the following topics,
provided that the work is presented in computer-related or formal description
aspects:

Computational linguistics research: 

- Computational linguistic theories and formalisms
- Representation of linguistic knowledge
- Lexical resources
- Morphology, syntax, semantics
- Discourse models
- Ambiguity resolution
- Anaphora resolution
- Word sense disambiguation
- Recognizing textual entailment
- Text generation
- Machine translation
- etc.

Intelligent text and speech processing and their applications:

- Opinion mining, sentiment analysis, social networks
- Speech processing and text-to-speech
- Text categorization and clustering
- Information retrieval, information extraction
- Text mining
- Summarization
- Spell checking
- Detection of plagiarism
- Natural language interfaces
- etc.

Keynote Speakers:

- Marco Baroni
- Iryna Gurevych
- Björn W. Schuller
- Hinrich Schütze

Cultural Program:

Three days of cultural activities: Folk festival, Budapest, Visegrád

Call for Papers:

We welcome works on processing any language (not necessarily English), though
major languages are of more general interest. When discussing phenomena of
languages other than English, please keep your discussion understandable for
people not familiar with this language.

You can have a look at the contents of the proceedings of past CICLing events
to get an idea of our interests. If not sure whether your topic is of
interest, please ask us.

Publication: 

Springer LNCS - Lecture Notes in Computer Science; special issues of journals

Awards:

Tentative: 1000 euro award fund sponsored by Springer for Best paper awards
and Best student paper award. There will also be awards for best presentation,
best poster and best software.

Submission Deadlines: 

January 25: Registration of tentative abstract / title (why not register your
tentative abstract right now?),
February 1: Full text of the registered papers (contact us for late
submissions)
