[Corpora-List] Special issue of the Computational Intelligence journal on Semantic Analysis in Social Networks

[Chris Fournier]

Title of the Special Issue:****

“Semantic analysis in social networks (SASN)”****

** **

Website http://www.nlptechnologies.ca/News/cintelligencejournal.html****

** **

Scope of the special issue:****

** **

Computational Intelligence is a leading international journal that promotes
and stimulates research in the field of artificial intelligence (AI).
Semantic analysis in social networks (SASN) is important for applications
such as understanding and enabling social networks, natural language
interfaces and human behaviour on the web, e-learning environments, cyber
communities and educational or online shared workspaces. These aspects are
also important in security, privacy and identity protection, opinion
mining, sentiment analysis, and in the larger area of affective computing.**
**

 ****

We invite submission related to text analysis and social networks in the
context of natural language understanding, natural language generation,
automatic categorization, topic detection, and sentiment analysis, as well
as their applications and computational approaches to social networks.
Besides methodologies and techniques for SN analysis, we also encourage the
submission of papers that experiment with and describe applicative contexts
in which analysis and detection of affective aspects are useful and
beneficial. ****

 ****

Topics covered:****

Semantic analysis in sentences and web content from social networks****

Classification of texts by emotion and mood from SN****

Sociology of emotions and influence on inter-personal communications****

Topic detection and clustering in SN****

SN analysis across different languages****

SN analysis from multimedia (text, speech, video)****

Security and privacy issues in SN****

Automatic summarization from multiple sources and multiple languages****

Sentiment and opinion analysis in SN****

Information extraction and indexing****

Applications in which affective aspects are beneficial****

Tools and resources for accessing, representing, and managing social
network data in natural language processing frameworks (e.g., GATE, UIMA)***
*

Other aspects of the computational treatment of SN and affect.****

 ****

We would like to invite researchers to submit their original and
unpublished work to this Special Issue. Each submission will be reviewed by
at least three reviewers. Accepted papers will be published in the Special
Issue of the Computational Intelligence journal. We aim to cover three main
perspectives: government (e.g., security and criminology), industry (e.g.,
marketing), and academic (e.g., theoretical research related to SNs).  ****

 ****

Papers published in related workshops and conferences are welcome if they
contain at least 30% new material. In this case, authors should acknowledge
the previous publication in a footnote in the first page of the paper.****

Computational Intelligence requires that all papers be prepared as LaTeX or
MSWord. The author is required to read and use the Computational
Intelligence instruction files, templates and samples which are available
on the submission process described on the Wiley-Blackwell web site.****

 ****

Submission of a paper to Manuscript Central consists of:****

-The paper in pdf format, with file designation “main document”, AND****

-For the final version, the source files (MSWord or LaTeX). In the case of
LaTeX, upload all the .tex files, the figures, the .bib files and any style
files used as individual files. File designation for the files should be
“Supplementary file not for review”.****

 ****

Detailed formatting instructions are available on the website of
Wiley-Blackwell. LaTeX style files and a LaTeX template complying with the
formatting style are available as a single zip file for download or in a
directory for online review.****
