   This conference aims to bring together academic researchers and
   industrial practitioners to discuss empirical and corpus-based natural
   language processing through technical paper sessions, invited talks,
   and panel discussions. Topics of interest include (but are not
   limited to):

     * statistical parsing
     * language and dialog models
     * machine translation
     * information retrieval
     * information extraction
     * comparative evaluation of empirical vs. rule- and knowledge-based
       technologies
     * lexical acquisition
     * statistical language understanding
     * phrase identification
     * noun phrase coreference
     * question answering
     * word sense disambiguation
     * word and term segmentation and extraction
     * alignment
     * bilingual lexicon extraction
     * text categorization

   This year, we are especially interested in papers discussing these
   topics in the context of web-oriented applications.
