Meeting Description:

We are pleased to announce that the 12th biennial RANLP conference will take
place in September 2019 at the Black Sea city of Varna. In addition to the
conference programme of competitively peer-reviewed papers reporting on the
recent advances of a wide range of NLP topics, the RANLP conference will
feature 5-6 keynote speeches. There will be also poster and demo sessions. The
conference will be preceded by two days of Summer School on Deep Learning in
NLP (29-30 August, 2019) and two days of tutorials (31 August-1 September,
2019). Post-conference workshops will be held on 5-6 September 2019. A Student
Research Workshop will run in parallel to the main conference. The Student
Research Workshop, now in its sixth edition, is a vibrant discussion forum for
young researchers. Moreover, the 3rd edition of the two-day conference
“Biographical Data in Digital World 2019” will be co-located with RANLP and
will take place on 5-6 September 2019.

As from RANLP 2009, the papers accepted at RANLP and the associated workshops
will be included in the ACL Anthology. The RANLP proceedings are also indexed
by SCOPUS and DBLP.


Call for Papers:

Topics:

We invite papers reporting recent advances in all aspects of Natural Language
Processing (NLP). We encourage contributions from a broad range of areas
including, but not limited to, the following topics: phonetics, phonology, and
morphology; syntax, semantics, discourse, pragmatics, dialogue, and lexicon;
complexity; mathematical, statistical, machine learning and deep learning
models; language resources and corpora; electronic dictionaries, terminologies
and ontologies; linked data; POS tagging; parsing; semantic role labelling;
word sense disambiguation; multiword expressions; textual entailment; anaphora
resolution; language generation; speech recognition; text-to-speech synthesis;
multilingual NLP; machine translation, translation memory systems and
computer-aided translation tools, text simplification and readability
estimation; knowledge acquisition; information retrieval; text categorisation;
information extraction; text summarisation; terminology extraction; question
answering; opinion mining and sentiment analysis; fact-checking; stance
detection; author profiling; dialogue systems; computer-aided language
learning; NLP for biomedical texts; NLP for the Semantic Web; theoretical and
application-orientated papers related to NLP.

Submission of Papers, Posters, Demos:

The submissions will be maintained by the conference management system START.
For further instructions, please follow the submission information at the
conference on this website. The reviewing process will be anonymous. Double
submission is acceptable, but authors will be asked to declare it at the time
of submission. The submissions will be reviewed by at least three members of
the Programme Committee. The authors of accepted papers will receive
guidelines regarding how to produce camera-ready versions of their papers for
inclusion in the proceedings. The full conference proceedings will be uploaded
on the ACL Anthology, and each accepted paper will have a DOI number. A
printed version will be made available at the conference if ordered in advance
(cost: 40-45 EUR).

This year, RANLP aims to provide early notification of acceptance to authors
and presenters who need visa to enter Bulgaria. Thus, we invite early
submissions including author names and paper abstracts, in order to facilitate
a faster review process. Access to the conference management software will be
available on 1 April 2019.
