Call for Papers:

We invite submissions to the second biennial conference on Language, Data and
Knowledge (LDK 2019), which will be held in Leipzig, Germany in May 2019. This
conference aims at bringing together researchers from across disciplines
concerned with the acquisition, curation and use of language data in the
context of data science and knowledge-based applications. This builds upon the
success of the inaugural event held in Galway, Ireland in 2017.

We welcome submission of relevance to the topics listed below. Submissions can
be in the form of long research papers, short research papers, or short
scientific abstracts on use cases or position papers.

Submission is double-blind and hence all submissions should be suitably
anonymized by omitting author names in the header and citing previous own work
in the third person (not ''as we showed in …'' but ''as Smith (2017) showed
…'').

Papers should be submitted to EasyChair at the following address:
