Call for Papers 

SLTC is inviting submissions of extended abstracts on any NLP-related topic. We offer an opportunity to present your completed or ongoing work to colleague at other Swedish and Nordic universities.

Deadlines

Submission deadline: September 6

Notification of Acceptance: October 12

Camera-Ready Abstracts: October 25

All deadlines are 23:59 CEST.

Content

Papers are invited on all theoretical, practical and applied aspects of language technology, including natural language processing, computational linguistics, speech technology, and neighboring areas. Submissions may describe completed or ongoing research, as well as practical applications, and system demonstrations are welcome as a separate track. We welcome work on any language.

Submission

We invite two different types of submissions through OpenReview (If you do not have an OpenReview account yet, make sure to create it well in advance of the deadline). Submissions should use the style files of the ACL conferences (available on GitHub and on Overleaf).

Submission Type 1: Extended abstracts

We invite extended abstracts of 2 to 4 pages (excluding references). Appendices of any length may be included. The reviewing process for extended abstracts will be double-blind.

The conference does not publish any proceedings, but the extended abstracts accepted will be made available on the conference web page. Hence, it is possible to submit abstracts related to work that has been (or will be) published elsewhere, as long as this is compatible with the conditions of the respective publication channels.

Submission Type 2: Demonstrations

We invite short papers of up to 4 pages describing practical applications and system demonstrations. Appendices of any length may be included. These short papers are also encouraged to be accompanied by GitHub repositories, and other similar sources, and thus need not be anonymized.

Presentation Format

Type 1 submissions will be presented at the conference as posters, or oral presentations, while Type 2 submissions will be presented as demonstrations.
