The Second Midwest Computational Linguistics Colloquium (MCLC-2005)
Call for Papers
Abstract Deadline: April 10, 2005 (extended)
The Computational Linguistics and
Language Technologies Group of the Departments of Linguistics and Computer Science and Engineering at The Ohio State University are pleased
to sponsor the second meeting of the Midwest Computational Linguistics
Colloquium (MCLC). This colloquium offers a less formal forum for
computational linguistics researchers to get together and present
ideas and work. It is intended to be primarily for researchers from the
Midwest region, but applications from all regions are welcome. The
first meeting of MCLC was successfully held at University of Indiana Bloomington in 2004, and with this second installment it is on
its way to becoming an annual event.
The Organizing Committee invites submission of extended abstracts
addressing any aspect of computational linguistics. As MCLC is
intended to provide a forum for presentation of original research
ideas that may benefit from peer review and discussion, both completed
work and work-in-progress are welcome. Submissions from faculty,
graduate students, and other researchers are all encouraged.
Invited Speaker
Richard Sproat, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
Submission Guidelines
- Interested researchers should submit a 2-page extended abstract
(including references) using the ACL style files.
- Abstracts should be submitted by email to jianguo AT ling.osu.edu or
xflu AT ling.osu.edu. The abstract should be attached as a .pdf (preferred) or .doc file. The name of the file should be the first
word of the title plus underscore plus your last name (e.g., Firstword_Lastname.pdf). The subject of the email should be "MCLC
submission".
-
The abstracts should be anonymous. In the body of the email, include
the following: name(s) of author(s); affiliation(s) of author(s);
the address, phone number, and email address at which the author(s)
would like to be notified; the title of the paper; the name of the
file attached; a note indicating your equipment requirements; and
any additional comments.
Review
Each abstract will be reviewed by at least two reviewers. The major criteria of evaluation will be the
originality, soundness, and clarity of the research idea presented and
the relevance of the topic to the colloquium.
Publication
Authors of accepted abstracts will be invited (but not required) to
submit a 4-8 page full paper using the ACL style files for the
proceedings, which will be distributed in a CD. Copyright of a
submitted paper remains with the author(s).
Registration
Registration will be free, but there will be a small fee for the CD
proceedings.
