> Call for papers
>
> The purpose of the conference series International Workshop on
> Computational Linguistics for Uralic Languages is to bring together
> researchers working on computational approaches to working with
> these languages. We accept long and short papers as well as tutorial
> proposals working on the following languages: Finnish, Hungarian,
> Estonian, Võro, the Sámi languages, Komi (Zyrian, Permyak), Mordvin
> (Erzya, Moksha), Mari (Hill, Meadow), Udmurt, Nenets (Tundra,
> Forest), Enets, Nganasan, Selkup, Mansi, Khanty, Veps, Karelian
> (Olonets), Karelian, Ingrian (Izhorian), Votic, Livonian, Ludic,
> and other related languages.
>
> All Uralic languages exhibit rich morphological structure, which
> makes processing them challenging for state-of-the-art
> computational linguistic approaches, the majority also suffer from a
> lack of resources and many are endangered.
>
> Research papers should be original, substantial and unpublished
> research, that can describe work-in-progress systems, frameworks,
> standards and evaluation schemes. Demos and tutorials will present
> systems and standards towards the goal of interoperability and
> unification of different projects, applications and research groups
> Appropriate topics include (but are not limited to):
> * Parsers, analysers and processing pipelines of Uralic languages
> * Lexical databases, electronic dictionaries
> * Finished end-user applications aimed at Uralic languages, such
> as spelling or grammar checkers, machine translation or speech
> processing
> * Evaluation methods and gold standards, tagged corpora,
> treebanks
> * Reports on language-independent or unsupervised methods as
> applied to Uralic languages
> * Surveys and review articles on subjects related to
> computational linguistics for one or more Uralic languages
> * Any work that aims at combining efforts and reducing
> duplication of work
> * How to elicit activity from the language community, agitation
> campaigns, games with a purpose
> * To maximise the possibility of reproducibility, replication and
> reuse, we particularly encourage submissions which present
> free/open-source language resources and make use of
> free/open-source software.
>
> One of the aims of this gathering is to avoid unnecessary
> duplicated work in field of Uralistics by establishing connections and
> interoperability standards between researchers and research groups
> working at different sites. We have also identified a serious lack
> of gold standards and evaluation metrics for all Uralic languages
> including those with national support, any work towards better
> resources in these fields will be greatly appreciated. In this
> year’s edition, we continue our tradition of particularly encouraging
> researchers of minority Uralic languages in Russia to participate.

> Submission of papers
>
> Language of submission: Submissions should be made in English or
> Russian with an obligatory abstract in at least one of the Uralic
> Language(s).
>
> Submission format: There are multiple submission types: long and
> short research papers, and demonstrations and tutorials. Research
> papers should be up to 18 pages in length excluding references, the
> descriptions for demonstrations and tutorials up to 5 pages.
> Submissions should be formatted using LaTeX default article style
> with b5paper option. Citations should be managed with bibtex and
> e.g., unsrt bibliography style. Linguistic glosses should follow
> Leipzig glossing rules and use expex LaTeX package (make sure to
> update expex regularly as it is developed actively). Preferred
> LaTeX version is XeLaTeX and therefore you should use UTF-8 encoded
> Unicode in your sources rather than TeX encoded characters where
> possible. You will find the workshop template here (also in zip
> format templates).
>
> If you do not have access to LaTeX text processing system, please
> contact us for alternative templates and instructions.
>
> Submissions can be made here using the [34]EasyChair conference
> management system.
>
> Publication venue: Proceedings of the workshop will be published
> open-access in ACL anthology, SIG proceedings for SIGUR
>
> Conflicts of interest: The reviewing process will be anonymous
> (double-blind peer review) and authors should state in their
> submission all conflicts of interest with members of the programme
> committee. Members of the programme committee are also expected to
> state their conflicts of interest during review bidding. If the
> programme committee finds themselves unable to review some of the
> submissions, external reviewers may be called.
>
> Double submission: To maximise the impact of work in the field of
> computational linguistics for the Uralic languages we are open to
> the possibility of double submission, or submission of work which has
> been partially published elsewhere. Any double submission should
> however be reported to the programme committee at the time of
> submission. In the advent of double acceptance the authors should
> choose in which venue to publish.
