Submissions

We invite submissions on all aspects of TAG and related systems and anticipate holding sessions devoted to:

  • syntactic and semantic theory
  • mathematical properties
  • computational and algorithmic studies of parsing, interpretation and generation
  • psycholinguistic modeling
  • applications to natural language processing

A key goal is thus to deepen knowledge of the formalisms that can be used to describe natural language; the intention is for this workshop to act as a forum for doing this, in the context of an increasing empirical focus in the fields of computational linguistics and natural language processing. Equally, however, it is a goal of the workshop to encourage the connection of formal results to this empirical work.

Anonymous abstracts may be submitted for two sorts of presentations at the workshop: spoken presentations and poster presentations. Poster presentations are particularly appropriate for brief descriptions of specialized implementations, resources under development and work in progress. Regardless of type of submission, abstracts may not exceed two pages in length (not including data, figures and references). All abstracts are to be submitted electronically using the ACL START conference submission system.

The electronic submission website is at http://www.softconf.com/acl/W15-COLINGACL2006/submit.html.

Dates

  • Deadline for submission of abstracts: April 13 2006
  • Notification of acceptance: May 9 2006
  • Deadline for camera-ready submission: June 5 2006
  • Workshop dates: July 15 to 16 2006

Proceedings including full papers for accepted abstracts (including both oral presentations and poster presentations) will be available on-line and at the workshop. In addition, we will explore possibilities for subsequent publication of workshop articles, for example through a special issue of a journal.

Guidelines for camera-ready submission

For papers describing oral presentations, the maximum length of a manuscript is eight (8) pages. If you need more space, please contact us at [...] . For papers of poster presentations, the maximum length of a manuscript is six (6) pages.

Please provide a pdf copy of the final version of your paper. The pdf file must be formatted to be printed on A4 size paper using the style files at http://www.acl2006.mq.edu.au/program/style.

You can upload your camera-ready copy via the final submission website at http://www.softconf.com/acl/W15-COLINGACL2006/final.html.

Please note that the deadline for uploading the final version is JUNE 5 (midnight PDT, GMT-8).
