====First Announcement of JapTAL 2012====

JapTAL2012, the 8th International Conference on Natural Language
Processing,
Kanazawa, Japan - 22-24 October 2012
http://lang.cs.tut.ac.jp/JapTAL2012/ (will appear)

We are pleased to invite participation in JapTAL2012 organised by the
Toyohashi University of Technology (TUT).

OVERVIEW

The conference will take place in the city of Kanazawa, a leading
tourist city where 7 million tourists visit every year. It was a great
castle town ruled by an influential leader from the 17th century to the
second half of the 19th century.  Kanazawa has not suffered from any war
devastation or big natural disaster up to now. Therefore, Kanazawa
maintains rows of historical houses and inherits traditional handicrafts
and traditional performing arts.

JapTAL is the eighth in the series of the TAL conferences, following
IceTAL 2010 (Reykjavik, Iceland), GoTAL 2008 (Gothenburg, Sweden),
FinTAL 2006 (Turku, Finland), EsTAL 2004 (Alicante, Spain), PorTAL 2002
(Faro, Portugal), VexTAL 1999 (Venice, Italy) and FracTAL 1997
(Besancon, France).

The main purpose of the TAL conference series is to bring together
scientists representing linguistics, computer science and related
fields, sharing a common interest in the advancement of computational
linguistics and natural language processing.

The conference will consist of keynote talks, oral and poster
presentations, invited sessions and workshops, on the applications and
theory of natural language processing and related areas. It will provide
excellent opportunities for the presentation of interesting new research
results and discussion about them, leading to knowledge transfer and the
generation of new ideas.

CALL FOR PAPERS

Papers are invited on recent, substantial, original and unpublished
research on all aspects of computational linguistics and natural
language and speech processing.

We welcome submissions both from academia and the industry on any topic
that is of interest to the NLP community, encouraging research
emphasizing multidisciplinary aspects of NLP and the interplay between
linguistics, computer science and application domains such as
biomedicine, communication systems, public services, and educational
