EACL 2014 CALL FOR TUTORIAL PROPOSALS

Proposals are invited for the Tutorial Program of the 14th Conference of
the European Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics
(EACL 2014), to be held in Gothenburg, Sweden, from 26 to 30 April
2014. The selected tutorials will be given on the Saturday and Sunday
preceding the main conference (26 and 27 April).

EACL 2014 seeks proposals for tutorials in all areas of computational
linguistics, broadly conceived to include disciplines such as
Linguistics, Speech, Information Retrieval, Psycholinguistics, and
Multimodal Processing. We particularly welcome (1) tutorials which cover
advances in newly emerging areas not previously covered in an *ACL
related tutorial, and (2) tutorials which provide introductions into
related fields which are potentially relevant for the CL community
(e.g. bioinformatics, neuroscience, human language processing, video and
image analysis, machine learning techniques). In order to gather a
widespread audience, the experience and qualifications of the
instructors will also be taken into account.


REMUNERATION

Remuneration for tutorials is regulated by ACL policies:
http://aclweb.org/adminwiki/index.php?title=Policy_on_tutorial_teacher_payment. Please
note that enumeration for tutorial presenters is fixed according to the
above policy and does not cover registration fees for the main
conference.


SUBMISSION DETAILS

Proposals for tutorials should contain:
1. A title and brief description of the tutorial content and its
   relevance to the ACL community (not more than 2 pages).
2. A brief outline of the tutorial structure showing that the tutorial's
   core content can be covered in a three-hour slot (excluding a coffee
   break). In exceptional cases six-hour tutorial slots are available as
   well.
3. The names, postal addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses of
   the tutorial instructors, including a one-paragraph statement of
   their research interests and areas of expertise.
4. A list of previous venues and approximate audience sizes, if the same
   or a similar tutorial has been given elsewhere; otherwise an estimate
   of the audience size.
5. A description of special requirements for technical equipment
   (e.g. internet access).

Proposals should be submitted by electronic mail, in plain ASCII text,
to "tutorials at eacl2014 dot org", no later than 1 November 2013. The
subject line should be: "EACL 2014 Tutorial Proposal". Please note that
only proposals submitted by e-mail will be taken into account.

TUTORIAL SPEAKER RESPONSIBILITIES

Accepted tutorial speakers will be notified by 15 November 2013, and
must then provide abstracts of their tutorials for inclusion in the
conference registration material by 15 December 2013. The description
should be in two formats: an ASCII version that can be included in email
announcements and published on the conference web site, and a PDF
version for inclusion in the electronic proceedings (detailed
instructions to follow).

Tutorial speakers must provide tutorial materials, at least containing
copies of the course slides as well as a bibliography for the material
covered in the tutorial, by 1 February 2014.
