NAACL-HLT 2018 - Call for Long and Short Paper Submissions

NAACL-HLT 2018 invites the submission of long and short papers on substantial,
original, and unpublished research in all aspects of computational
linguistics. NAACL-HLT 2018 has a goal of a broad technical program. 

Relevant topics for the conference include, but are not limited to, the
following areas (in alphabetical order):

- Cognitive modeling / Psycholinguistics
- Dialog and interactive systems
- Discourse and pragmatics
- Generation
- Information Extraction
- Machine Learning for NLP
- Machine Translation
- NLP Applications
- Phonology, Morphology and word segmentation
- Question Answering
- Resources and evaluation
- Semantics
- Sentiment Analysis
- Social Media
- Speech
- Summarization
- Tagging, chunking, syntax and parsing
- Text Mining
- Vision, robots, and other grounding

As in recent years, some of the presentations at the conference will be of
papers accepted by the Transactions of the ACL. Also, separate CFPs will be
forthcoming for demo papers and for submissions to the industry track.

Important Dates:

Submission Deadline (Long Papers): December 15, 2017
Submission Deadline (Short Papers): January 10, 2018
Long Paper Author Response Period:  January 25~28, 2018
Notification of Acceptance (Long Papers): February 14, 2018
Notification of Acceptance (Short Papers): February 28, 2018
Camera Ready Due - March 20, 2018

(All deadlines are 11:59PM GMT -12, anywhere in the world.)

Long Papers:

Long paper submissions must describe substantial, original, completed and
unpublished work. Wherever appropriate, concrete evaluation and analysis
should be included. 

Long paper submissions may consist of up to eight (8) pages of content, plus
unlimited references.

Short Papers:

Short paper submissions must describe original and unpublished work. Please
note that a short paper is not a shortened long paper. Instead short papers
should have a point that can be made in a few pages. Some kinds of short
papers are:

- A small, focused contribution
- Work in progress
- A negative result
- An opinion piece
- An interesting application nugget

Short paper submissions may consist of up to four (4) pages of content, plus
unlimited references.

Submission Guideline:

Submissions should be original. The content of submissions to NAACL-HLT 2018
(the ideas, the findings, the results and the words) should be original; that
is, should not have been published (or be accepted for publication) in another
refereed, archival form (such as a book, a journal, or a conference
proceedings). 

Authors may present preliminary versions of their work in other venues that
are not refereed and/or not archival (e.g. course reports, theses,
non-archival workshops, or on preprint servers such as arXiv.org). Authors
should list all such previous presentations in the submission form. This will
help the area chairs if questions of originality arise. 

Papers that have been or will be submitted to other venues must indicate this
at submission time, and must be withdrawn from the other venues if accepted to
NAACL-HLT 2018. 

Authors submitting more than one paper to NAACL-HLT 2018 must ensure that the
submissions do not overlap significantly (>25%) with each other.

template files for submissions visit http://naacl2018.org/call_for_paper.html
