COLING 2014 Call for System Demonstrations
The 25th International Conference on Computational Linguistics, August 23 - 29, 2014, Dublin, Ireland

http://www.coling-2014.org

Important dates
19 May 2014: Paper submission deadline
23 June 2014: Author notification
7 July 2014: Camera-ready paper submission deadline


The COLING 2014 Demonstration Programme Committee invites proposals for system demonstrations. The demonstration programme is part of the main conference programme and aims at showcasing working systems that apply a wide range of conference topics. The session will provide opportunities to exchange ideas gained from implementing NLP systems, and to obtain feedback from expert users.

COLING 2014 will be held in Dublin, Ireland from 23-29 August 2014.

The COLING conference has a history that dates back to the 1960s. It is held every two years and regularly attracts more than 700 delegates. The conference has developed into one of the premier Natural Language Processing (NLP) conferences worldwide and is a major international event for the presentation of new research results and for the demonstration of new systems and techniques in the broad field of Computational Linguistics and NLP.

Topics of interest
COLING 2014 solicits demonstrations on original and unpublished research on the following topics, including, but not limited to:
● pragmatics, semantics, syntax, grammars and the lexicon;
● cognitive, mathematical and computational models of language processing;
● models of communication by language;
● lexical semantics and ontologies;
● word segmentation, tagging and chunking;
● parsing, both syntactic and deep;
● generation and summarisation;
● paraphrasing, textual entailment and question answering;
● speech recognition, text-to-speech and spoken language understanding;
● multimodal and natural language interfaces and dialogue systems;
● information retrieval, information extraction and knowledge base linking;
● machine learning for natural language;
● modelling of discourse and dialogue;
● sentiment analysis, opinion mining and social media;
● multilingual processing, machine translation and translation aids;
● applications, tools and language resources;
● system evaluation methodology and metrics.


Submissions
The submissions should address the following questions:
● What is the problem the proposed system addresses?
● Why is the system important and what is its impact?
● What is the novelty of the used approach/technology?
● Who is the target audience?
● How does the system work?
● How does it compare with existing systems?
● How is the system licenced?

The maximum submission length is 4 pages (including references). Papers shall be submitted in English and must conform to the official COLING 2014 style guidelines available on the conference website. The anonymisation of submissions is optional. If authors choose to remain anonymous, it is their responsibility to take every measure to conceal potentially identifying information.

The only accepted format for submissions is PDF. Accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings in a dedicated volume for demonstration systems.
