9th International Conference on Natural Language Generation (INLG 2016):
Second Call for Workshop Proposals
For the first time since its inception, the International Conference on Natural Language Generation (INLG) will this year include independently organised workshops. These will take place on September 5 or 6, immediately prior to the conference itself. In view of this happening for the first time, one workshop, the 2nd International Workshop on NLG and the Semantic Web has already been confirmed, following an invitation to the organisers by the SIGGEN committee.
The INLG organisers and SIGGEN invite further proposals for one-day or half-day workshops at INLG 2016, which will be held in Edinburgh. Workshops can focus on any topic that is viewed as relevant to the Natural Language Generation community. We especially invite proposals for workshops in relatively new areas which have recently begun to attract interest in the research community, or topics where greater interaction between the NLG community and another established research community can be beneficial to both fields. Proposals for workshops which form part of an existing series are also welcome.
Proposal submission:
-------------------------------
Workshops at INLG 2016 should be planned as half-day or full one-day events and can take place on September 5th or 6th. Proposals should be approximately two pages long, and should include the following information:
