CLiC-it 2016 - Third Italian Conference on Computational Linguistics ***

Second Call for Papers
5-6 December 2016, Napoli, Italy

http://clic-it2016.dieti.unina.it

co-located with EVALITA 2016 (http://www.evalita.org)

CLiC-it, Italian Conference on Computational Linguistics, is aimed at
establishing a reference forum for research on Computational Linguistics
organized by the recently founded Italian Association of Computational
Linguistics (AILC -www.ai-lc.it). Together with the co-located EVALITA
evaluation campaign specifically devoted to Natural Language Processing
and Speech tools for Italian, the conference is intended to meet the
need for a national and international forum for the promotion and
dissemination of high-level original research in the field of
Computational Linguistics (CL) by the Italian community. CLiC-it covers
all aspects of automatic language understanding, both written and
spoken, and targets state-of-the-art theoretical results, experimental
methodologies, technologies, as well as application perspectives, which
may contribute to advance the field.

The third edition of CLiC-it will be held in Napoli, at the University
Federico II.

The spirit of the Conference is inclusive. In the conviction that the
complexity of language phenomena needs cross-disciplinary competences,
CLiC-it intends to bring together researchers of related disciplines
such as Computational Linguistics, Linguistics, Cognitive Science,
Machine Learning, Computer Science, Knowledge Representation,
Information Retrieval and Digital Humanities. CLiC-it is open to
contributions on all languages, with a particular emphasis on Italian.

CLiC-it 2016 CALL FOR PAPERS

The conference invites the submission of papers on research in all
aspects of automated language processing. Relevant topics for the
conference include, but are not limited to, the thematic areas reported
below (together with the Area Chairs):

Cognitive modeling of language processing and psycholinguistics (D.
Crepaldi, G. Lebani, V. Pirrelli)
NLP for Digital Humanities (M. Passarotti, S. Tonelli)
Information Retrieval and Question Answering (N. Ferro, A. Moschitti)
Information Extraction, Entity Linking and (Linked) Open Data (V.Basile,
R. Navigli)
Linguistic Resources (C. Bosco, M. Monachini, S. Vietri)
Machine Translation and Multilingual Applications (M. Cettolo, J. Monti)
Pragmatics, Creativity and Linguistic Games (M. de Gemmis, M. Gori, M.
Poesio)
Semantics and Knowledge Acquisition (R. Bernardi, A. Gangemi, F.M. Zanzotto)
Spoken Language Processing and Understanding (P. Cosi, A. Origlia)
Morphology and Syntax Processing (A. Lavelli, A. Mazzei)
NLP for Web and Social Media (D. Croce, F. Dell'Orletta)
Linguistic Issues in CL and NLP (A. Lenci, P. Merlo)
Machine Learning for CL and NLP (G. Attardi, R. Basili)

SUBMISSION INFORMATION FOR REGULAR PAPERS

CLiC-it 2016 has the goal of a broad technical program. We invite papers
in the following four broad categories: theoretical computational
linguistics, empirical/data-driven approaches, resources/evaluation,
applications/tools. We also invite papers describing a challenge in the
field, position papers, survey papers, and papers that describe a
negative result.
Papers may consist of up to four (4) pages of content, and two (2)
additional pages of references. Paper can be either in English or
Italian, with the abstract both in English and Italian. Accepted papers
will be published on-line and will be presented at the conference either
orally or as a poster. The deadline for paper submissions is July 15, 2016.
Paper submissions should follow the two-column format. We strongly
recommend the use of LaTeX style files or Microsoft Word style files
according to the ACL format, which will be soon available on the
conference website under "Submissions". Submission must be electronic in
PDF, using the Easychair submission software.
Reviewing will NOT be double blind, so there is no need to remove author
information from manuscripts.

YOUNG AUTHOR BEST PAPER AWARDS

In order to award the work of young researchers, the title of “best
paper” will be attributed to the best papers in different research areas
with a PhD student and/or postDoc among the authors. The awarded authors
will be invited to submit an extended version of their papers to the
Italian Journal of Computational Linguistics (IJCoL).
