Student Research Workshop associated with the conference ‘Recent Advances in Natural Language Processing’
http://lml.bas.bg/ranlp2015/ranlpStud2015
Further to the previous successful and highly competitive Student Research Workshops associated with the conference ‘Recent Advances in Natural Language Processing’ (RANLP, in 2009, 2011, and 2013), we are pleased to announce the fourth edition of the workshop which will be held during the main RANLP 2015 conference days on 7-9 September 2015.
For the third time the conference and the workshop will take place in Hissar, Bulgaria, which is a location worth visiting.
The International Conference RANLP 2015 would like to invite students at all levels (Bachelor-, Master-, and PhD-students) to present their ongoing work at the Student Research Workshop. The aim of this workshop is to facilitate the exchange of knowledge between young researchers by providing an excellent opportunity to present and discuss their work in progress or completed projects to an international research audience and receive feedback from senior researchers. The research being presented can come from any topic area within Natural Language Processing (NLP) and computational linguistics, including but not limited to the following topic areas: phonetics, phonology and morphology; syntax, semantics, discourse, pragmatics, dialogue and lexicon; mathematical and statistical models and complexity; language resources and corpora; electronic dictionaries, terminologies and ontologies; POS tagging; parsing; semantic role labelling; word-sense disambiguation; textual entailment; anaphora resolution; generation; speech recognition; text-to-speech synthesis; evaluation; multilingual NLP; machine translation, translation memory systems and computer-aided translation tools, machine translation quality estimation, text simplification and readability estimation; knowledge acquisition; information retrieval; event extraction; temporality processing; text categorisation; information extraction; text summarisation; term extraction; question answering; opinion mining; dialogue systems; computer-aided language learning; NLP for biomedical texts; NLP for the Semantic web; NLP for social media; controlled languages; NLP for sublanguages; patents search; NLP for language disorders; and theoretical and application-orientated papers related to NLP.
Papers at the borderline between two sciences (such as Translation Studies, Psycholinguistics, etc.), but bearing contributions to NLP will be also accepted for review. All accepted papers will be presented at the Student Workshop sessions during the main conference days: 7-9 September 2015. The articles will be issued in a special Student Session proceedings and uploaded to the ACL Anthology.
