- Paper submissions
CoNLL 2018 long paper submissions must describe substantial, original,
completed and unpublished work. Wherever appropriate, concrete evaluation and
analysis should be included. Each submission will be reviewed by at least
three program committee members. Each long paper submission consists of a
paper of up to eight (8) pages of content, plus unlimited pages for
references. Final versions of long papers will be given one additional page
(up to nine pages with unlimited pages for references) so that reviewers
comments can be taken into account.
- Important: New submission guidelines
CoNLL 2018 adopts ACL's new policies for submission, review, and citation.
Submissions that violate any of these policies will be rejected without
review. Most importantly, the policies refer to the anonymity period, which
starts on May 1, 2018 for CoNLL 2018.
The details are described in the ACL 2018 Author Guidelines, which we follow.
- Optional Supplementary Materials: Appendices, Software and Data
Each CoNLL 2018 submission can be accompanied by a single PDF appendix, one
.tgz or .zip archive containing software, and one .tgz or .zip archive
containing data.
- Formatting Requirements
Long papers must follow the EMNLP 2018 two-column format, using the LaTeX
style files or Word template to be provided on the the EMNLP 2018 website.
- Double-Blind Review Instructions
As the reviewing will be blind, submissions and supplementary materials must
not include or imply the authors' names and affiliations.
- Multiple Submission Policy
Papers that have been or will be submitted to other meetings or publications
must indicate this at submission time, and must be withdrawn from the other
venues if accepted by CoNLL 2018. However, submission to both CoNLL 2018 and
EMNLP 2018 is not permitted.
- Submission
We will be accepting submissions online via Softconf
(https://www.softconf.com/emnlp2018/conll/).
