Linguistic Field(s): Computational Linguistics 

Call Deadline: 12-Mar-2017 

Meeting Description:

The exploitation of natural language from social media data is an intriguing
task in the fields of text mining and natural language processing (NLP), with
plenty of applications in social sciences and social media analytics. In this
special session, we call for research papers in the broader field of NLP
techniques for social media analysis. The topics of interest include (but are
not limited to): sentiment analysis in social media and beyond (e.g., stance
identification, sarcasm detection, opinion mining), computational
sociolinguistics (e.g., identification of demographic information such as
gender, age), and NLP tools for social media mining (e.g., topic modeling for
social media data, text categorization and clustering for social media).


Call for Papers: 

Submission of Papers:

Authors are invited to submit a full paper not exceeding 10 pages formatted in
the LNCS style (see below). The authors are asked to submit their papers using
the on-line submission system
(https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=specom2017).

Papers submitted to SPECOM 2017 must not be under review by any other
conference or publication during the SPECOM review cycle, and must not be

The paper format for the review has to be the PDF file with all required fonts
included (http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0).
