Call for Papers:

56th Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics

The ACL 2018 conference invites the submission of long and short papers on
substantial, original, and unpublished research in all aspects of
Computational Linguistics and Natural Language Processing. As in recent years,
some of the presentations at the conference will be of papers accepted by the
Transactions of the ACL journal.

Important Dates:

- Submission deadline (long & short papers): Feb. 22
- Author response period: Mar. 26-28
- Notification of acceptance: Apr. 20
- Camera-ready due: May 11

Note: All deadlines are 11:59PM UTC-12:00 (''anywhere on Earth'').

Submissions:

ACL 2018 has the goal of a broad technical program. Relevant topics for the
conference include, but are not limited to, the following areas (in
alphabetical order):

- Dialogue and Interactive Systems
- Discourse and Pragmatics
- Document Analysis
- Generation
- Information Extraction and Text Mining
- Linguistic Theories, Cognitive Modeling and Psycholinguistics
- Machine Learning
- Machine Translation
- Multidisciplinary
- Multilinguality
- Phonology, Morphology and Word Segmentation
- Question Answering
- Resources and Evaluation
- Sentence-level semantics
- Sentiment Analysis and Argument Mining
- Social Media
- Summarization
- Tagging, Chunking, Syntax and Parsing
- Textual Inference and Other Areas of Semantics
- Vision, Robotics, Multimodal, Grounding and Speech
- Word-level Semantics

Long Papers:

Long ACL 2018 submissions must describe substantial, original, completed and
unpublished work. Wherever appropriate, concrete evaluation and analysis
should be included. Review forms will be made available prior to the
deadlines.

Long papers may consist of up to eight (8) pages of content, plus unlimited
references; final versions of long papers will be given one additional page of
content (up to 9 pages) so that reviewers' comments can be taken into account.

Long papers will be presented orally or as posters as determined by the
program committee. The decisions as to which papers will be presented orally
and which as poster presentations will be based on the nature rather than the
quality of the work. There will be no distinction in the proceedings between
long papers presented orally and as posters.

Short Papers

ACL 2018 also solicits short papers. Short paper submissions must describe
original and unpublished work. Please note that a short paper is not a
shortened long paper. Instead short papers should have a point that can be
made in a few pages. Some kinds of short papers are:

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

Short papers may consist of up to four (4) pages of content, plus unlimited
references. Upon acceptance, short papers will be given five (5) content pages
in the proceedings. Authors are encouraged to use this additional page to
address reviewers' comments in their final versions.

- General chair: Claire Cardie (Cornell University)
- Program co-chairs: Iryna Gurevych (Technische Universit„t Darmstadt) and
