Italy) and FracTAL 1997 (Besançon, 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 is organised and hosted by the Institute of Computer
Science of the Polish Academy of Sciences.

language and speech processing, including, but not limited to:

- word segmentation, tagging and chunking,
- syntax, parsing and grammar formalisms,
- lexical semantics and word sense disambiguation,
- compositional semantics and semantic parsing,
- distributional and model-theoretic approaches to semantics,
- pragmatics, discourse and dialogue,
- linguistic, psychological and mathematical models of language,
- language resources and tools,
- lexicon, lexical databases and ontologies,

- information retrieval, question answering and information extraction,
- generation and summarisation,
- machine translation, translation aids and multilingual systems,
- dialogue systems and multimodal systems,

as well as:

- phonetics, phonology and morphology,
- speech recognition and speech synthesis,

SUBMISSIONS:

We welcome submissions both from the academia and the industry on any
topic that is of interest to the NLP community, particularly encouraging
research emphasising multidisciplinary and linguistic aspects of
Computational Linguistics.

All submissions will be reviewed by at least three programme committee
members. The submissions will be judged on relevance, originality,
technical quality and presentation. Papers can be submitted in two

  and preliminary results.

At the conference, full papers will be presented as talks and short
papers will be presented as posters.
