Linguistic Field(s): General Linguistics 

Call Deadline: 08-Sep-2019 

Meeting Description:

The 28th edition of the Conference of the Student Organisation of Linguistics
in Europe (ConSOLE) will be held between January 29-31 2020 at Universitat
Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona. ConSOLE aims at providing graduate students and
early-career researchers with the opportunity to present their research in
linguistics to an international audience.


Final Call for Papers:

This year the program also includes a satellite event comprised of a tutorial
on Computational Linguistics. All the information regarding this event is
provided at the bottom of this call.

Graduate students and early-career researchers are invited to submit abstracts
for both oral presentations (20 minutes plus additional 10 minutes for
discussion) and poster presentations. We invite papers from both theoretical
and empirical approaches across all linguistic fields, e.g. Syntax, Semantics,
Pragmatics, Morphology, Phonology, Phonetics, and methodologies, e.g, formal,
experimental and/or computational. Thus, although ConSOLE has traditionally
been a forum for generative approaches to natural language study, papers not
included within this approach are highly welcomed.

The deadline for submitting a paper is September 8, 2019, 23:59 CET. We expect
to notify authors in mid November 2019.

Abstract Guidelines:

Submissions are limited to two per author, with at most one paper being
single-authored.

Abstracts are limited to a maximum of 2 pages (including references, examples,
tables, appendices, etc.) and must have 2.5 cm (1 inch) margins on all sides,
with a font no smaller than 12pt set in Times New Roman.

The submission(s) must be anonymous and not reveal the identity of the
author(s) in any way (be sure to remove metadata from the file).

Authors should specify whether they would like to be considered for oral or
poster presentation, or for both.
Abstract must be submitted in PDF format through EasyChair
(https://easychair.org/cfp/ConSOLE2020) by September 8 (23:59 CET), 2019.

Abstracts not complying with these guidelines may be excluded from the
reviewing process.

As usual for ConSOLE editions, accepted authors (both oral and poster
presentations) will have the opportunity to submit to the proceedings of
ConSOLE. Further information about the proceedings will be provided shortly
after the conference.

Tutorials on Computational Linguistics:

The event will be held on January 28 2020, and co-located with the ConSOLE
conference.

Its goal is that of introducing students, and in general researchers in
Linguistics, to computational methods useful for the study of language.

The event will consist of two tutorials, comprising a mix of lecture and
hands-on practice. They will cover basic notions of programming for corpus
analysis, and an introduction to modelling frameworks leveraging large-scale
data (Distributional Semantics and in general machine learning). The tutorials
will cover the basic technical aspects of these methods, as well as their
motivations and applications. No prior knowledge of programming or computer
science will be assumed. Attendees are required to bring a laptop to the
tutorials, or alternatively work in small groups with at least one laptop.
