FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS

HLT/NAACL 2004 Student Research Workshop
  at
The Human Language Technology Conference of the
North American Chapter of the Association for
Computational Linguistics 2004,(HLT/NAACL 2004).
www.hlt-naacl04.org

May 2nd-7th, 2004,
Boston, Massachusetts, USA.

Paper submission deadline: January 30th, 2004.

Note: The exact dates of the workshop have not been firmly established yet.
The workshop will take place anytime between the 2nd and 7th of May, 2004.
The exact dates will be posted on the workshop website,
http://inismor.ucd.ie/~nstokes/hlt-naacl04-student/, once confirmed by the
main HLT/NAACL 2004 Conference Program Committee.

1. General Invitation for Submissions

Student researchers are invited to submit their work to the upcoming
HLT/NAACL 2004 Student Workshop. The main mission of the workshop is to
provide feedback for students' work in progress. Original and unpublished
research is invited on all aspects of speech, information retrieval, and
computational linguistics, but we encourage research that is in the
intersection of two or three of these areas.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following areas.

Speech processing, including:
- Speech recognition,
- Speech generation,
- Speech dialogue systems,
- Speech understanding,
- Multilingual issues in speech processing.

Natural language processing, including:
- Text summarization,
- Question answering,
- Information extraction,
- Machine translation of speech and text,
- Parsing,
- Discourse analysis,
- Sense disambiguation,
- Natural language generation,
- Development of language resources e.g. lexicons, ontologies, treebanks,
proposition banks, and frame banks,
- Computational analysis of phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax,
semantics, pragmatics, discourse, style,
- Linguistic, mathematical and psychological models of language,
- Understanding of human communication e.g. natural language interfaces,
  dialogue structure and dialogue systems, message and narrative
  understanding systems,
- HLT system evaluation.

Information Retrieval, including:
- Statistical NLP and machine learning for IR,
- NLP for IR,
- Cross-lingual and multilingual IR,
- Language modeling for IR,
- Text representation and indexing,
- Text classification (categorization or clustering),
- TDT and TREC tasks: novelty detection, filtering, topic tracking,
  event clustering, story segmentation,
- Interfaces, visualization, interactive IR,
- IR evaluation, experimental design and metrics.

The conference will also feature tutorials, workshops and demos. See the
main HLT/NAACL 2004 page at www.hlt-naacl04.org for more information.

2. Submission Requirements

Papers should describe original work in progress. The main purpose of
presenting at the workshop is to exchange ideas with other researchers and
to receive helpful feedback for further development of the work. Papers
should clearly indicate directions for future research wherever appropriate.
The papers can have more than one author; however, all authors MUST be
students. A paper accepted for presentation at the Student Workshop cannot
be presented or have been presented at any other meeting with publicly
available published proceedings. In addition, a student who has already
presented at an ACL/EACL/NAACL student session will not be allowed to
present again at the student session at any of these conferences, but
instead, is encouraged to submit to the main conference.

3. Submission Procedure

Paper submissions to the workshop will be accepted via e-mail attachments to
[log in to unmask] Submitted papers should be in PDF
format and sent by January 30th, 2004. Please contact the co-chairs if an
electronic submission will pose a significant degree of hardship. Authors
are encouraged to send an email by January 26th, 2004 indicating their
intention to submit. Authors are also asked to contact the co-chairs if
their paper has been selected for publication elsewhere and they wish to
withdraw from the Student Workshop. This is in agreement with the workshop
submission requirement that states that accepted papers cannot be presented
or published at any other meeting with published proceedings.

List of Items to be Submitted by:

I Optional (January 26th, 2004)
An identification page, to be included in the text of an email, containing
the following information:
- Paper title,
- Author name(s), affiliation(s) and e-mail address(es),
- Keywords: Up to 5 keywords specifying the subject area of your paper.
  A list of keywords can be found at
  http://inismor.ucd.ie/~nstokes/hlt-naacl04-student/submission.htm
- Under consideration for other conferences? (if yes, specify),
- An abstract: short summary (up to 5 lines).

II (January 30th, 2004: midnight EST (hard deadline))
The paper (6 pages max) in PDF format, following the two-column format of
the ACL proceedings. ACL style guidelines, and latex and Microsoft Word
style files are available for download at
http://inismor.ucd.ie/~nstokes/hlt-naacl04-student/formatting.htm.

III  (January 30th, 2004: midnight EST (hard deadline))
A statement of eligibility for the Student Workshop, to be included in the
text of your email, indicating that you meet the following submission
requirements:
- All authors are students.
- This paper has not been presented at any other meeting with publicly
available published proceedings.
- None of the authors have previously presented any paper at an
ACL/EACL/NAACL
  student session.
NB: If the identification page (Item I) is not sent to the co-chairs by
January 26th, then it should be included with the statement of eligibility
in the main text of the paper submission email.

4. Reviewing Procedure

Reviewing of papers submitted to the Student Workshop will be managed by
Student Workshop co-chairs, each of whom will have the assistance of a team
of reviewers. Each submission will be matched with a mixed panel of student
and senior researchers for review. The final acceptance decision will be
made based on the results of the review. Note that reviewing of papers will
be blind. The name(s) and affiliation(s) of the author(s) should not appear
on the title page.  No self-identifying information should appear in the
body of the paper submitted for review; for example, “Smith previously
showed (Smith, 1991)” should be used instead of “we showed previously
(Smith, 1991)”. Papers that do not conform to the requirements above are
subject to be rejected without review.

5. Schedule

Submissions must be received by January 30th, 2004. Late submissions will be
automatically disqualified. The Student Workshop committee is not
responsible for postal delays or other mailing problems. Acknowledgement
will be emailed soon after receipt. Notification of acceptance will be sent
to authors (by email) on March 1st, 2004. Detailed formatting guidelines for
the preparation of the final camera-ready copy will be provided to authors
with their acceptance notice.
