 ・ Semantics
 ・ Discourse, Dialogue, and Pragmatics
 ・ Language resources
 ・ Summarization and Generation
 ・ NLP-related Machine Learning: theory, methods and algorithms
 ・ Machine Translation
 ・ Information Retrieval and Question Answering
 ・ Information Extraction
 ・ Spoken Language Processing
 ・ Text Mining and Natural Language Processing Applications

 ・ Camera-ready submission: September 16, 2013
 ・ Workshop dates: October 18, 2013
 ・ Main conference dates: October 19-21, 2013

All deadlines are calculated at 11:59pm (UTC/GMT -11 hours)

---- SUBMISSIONS ----

Submissions should describe original, unpublished work. Papers presented at
EMNLP should mainly contain new material that has not been presented at any
other meeting with publicly available proceedings. Papers that have been or
will be submitted to other meetings or publications must disclose this
information at submission time. Please list all other meetings where the
paper
has been submitted in the "other submissions" field on the submission
site (and see below for details of the multiple submission policy).

Each LONG paper submission consists of a paper of up to nine (9) pages of
content and any number of additional pages containing references only,
together with optional supplementary material as described below.

EMNLP 2013 also solicits short papers. Characteristics of short papers
include:

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

SHORT papers will be presented orally or as a poster (at the discretion of
the
programme chairs), and will be given four (4) pages plus 2 pages for
references in the proceedings. While short papers will be distinguished from
long papers in the proceedings, there will be no distinction in the
proceedings between short papers presented orally or as posters. Each short
paper submission will be reviewed by at least two programme committee
members.

Both long and short papers should follow the two-column format of NAACL 2013
proceedings. Please use the official NAACL 2013 style files for the paper
(and
ensure that your paper is Letter size). We reserve the right to reject
submissions if the paper does not conform to these styles, including letter
size and font size restrictions

As reviewing will be blind, the submission should not include the authors'
names and affiliations.  Furthermore, self-references that reveal the
author's
identity, e.g., "We previously showed (Smith, 1991) ...", should be
avoided. Instead, use citations such as "Smith (1991) previously showed
...". Submissions that do not conform to these requirements will be rejected
without review. Separate author identification information is required as
part
of the on-line submission process.

The supplementary material should be supplementary (rather than central) to
the paper. It may include explanations or details of proofs or derivations
that do not fit into the paper, lists of features or feature templates,
sample
inputs and outputs for a system, pseudo-code or source code, and data. The
paper should not rely on the supplementary material: while the paper may
refer
to and cite the supplementary material and the supplementary material will
be
available to reviewers, they will not be asked to review or even download
the
supplementary material.

Submission and reviewing will be on-line, managed by the START system. The
only accepted format for submitted papers is Adobe PDF. The supplementary
material must be in the form of a single .zip or a .tgz archive file with a
maximum size of 10MB; otherwise there are no constraints on its
format. Submissions, together with all supplementary material, must be
uploaded to the START system by the submission deadlines; submissions
submitted after that time will not be reviewed. To minimise network
congestion
we request authors upload their submissions as early as possible (especially
if they contain large supplementary material files).

We are now accepting long and short paper submissions via:

https://www.softconf.com/emnlp2013/papers/

---- MULTIPLE SUBMISSION POLICY ----

Papers that have been or will be submitted to other meetings or publications
must indicate this at submission time. To alleviate review duplication,
multiple submissions are only allowed over a narrow time window, up until
July
12, 2013. By this date, authors of co-submitted papers must notify the PC
Chairs of their decision to either (a) withdraw the paper from EMNLP; or (b)
withdraw the paper from the other venues it was co-submitted to and have it
reviewed for EMNLP only.

There must be at least one registered author at the conference for each
accepted paper, and all accepted papers must be presented at the conference
to
appear in the proceedings. It is not acceptable to submit papers that
overlap
significantly in content or results with work that will be (or has been)
published elsewhere.

Authors submitting more than one paper to EMNLP 2013 must ensure that
submissions do not overlap significantly (> 50%) with each other in content
or
results. Authors should not submit short and long versions of papers with
substantial overlap in their original contributions.
