Dear SEELANGers,

Every once in awhile someone who is not a list member wishes to bring
something to the attention of the list without having to subscribe
himself/herself.  Instead, they send a message to me, and I pass it on
to you.  This is such a post.  Please do NOT reply to this message by

Dear Slavicists,

Please find enclosed below an announcement of a new Open Access journal.
As witnessed by the number of Slavicists and Slavic speakers, the
Journal of Language Modelling is particularly open to contributions
concerned with Slavic languages.

Best regards,

Adam P.

P.S. With apologies for cross-posting.

===================================================================


It is our pleasure to announce a new open-access electronic
periodical: the Journal of Language Modelling (JLM). The journal is
free for authors and readers alike.  All articles will be published
under a Creative Commons licence.

JLM is a peer-reviewed journal which aims to bridge the gap between
theoretical, formal and computational linguistics. Although a typical
article will present linguistic generalisations – either their
application in natural language processing or their discovery in
language corpora – acceptable topics range from linguistic analyses
sufficiently precise to be readily implemented to mathematical models
of aspects of language, and further to computational systems making
non-trivial use of linguistic insights.

We understand the discipline of language modelling very broadly. It
includes, naturally, statistical language modelling, as construed in
speech recognition or statistical machine translation, but it also
covers formal linguistic descriptions of phonological, morphological,
syntactic, semantic and pragmatic language phenomena; corpus
linguistics as a tool for modelling language; and so on.

Papers are reviewed within less than three months of their receipt,
and they appear on-line as soon as they have been accepted. There are
no delays typical of traditional paper journals. Accepted articles are
then collected in half-yearly issues and yearly volumes, with
continuous page numbering, and are made available as hard copies via
print on demand, at a nominal fee. On the other hand, Journal of
Language Modelling has a fully traditional view of quality: all papers
are carefully refereed by at least three reviewers, including at least
one member of the Editorial Board, and they are only accepted if they
adhere to the highest scientific, typographic and stylistic standards.

Articles can be submitted at:
