AACL-IJCNLP2022 Author Response Period has started: (1) The response deadline is extended to August 28 to ensure the late reviews can be chased / ad-hoc reviews can be completed. (2) We added a new function to allow authors to submit revised version during the response period.

📣 The #EACL2023 call for papers is now up: 2023.eacl.org/calls/papers/ - Abstract & anonymity deadline: 13 Oct 2022 - Direct paper submission deadline: 20 Oct 2022 - Submission deadline for ARR papers: 8 Jan 2023 - Notifications: 20 Jan 2023 Please help spread the word! #NLProc

We're very excited to announce that #EACL2023 will be a hybrid conference, to be physically held in Dubrovnik, Croatia from 2-6 May 2023. We thank the #NLProc community for their patience while this plan was put into place on a much reduced timescale.

#EACL2023 was to be held in Kyiv, but the ongoing war made this impossible. We decided on a different location as we believe a hybrid rather than an online conference will better serve the #NLProc community. EACL's goal remains to strengthen ties with the Ukrainian community.

Congrats to the new ACL fellows: Hinrich Schutze, Marti Hearst, Claire Gardent, James Allen, Owen Rambow, Yejin Choi, Maosong Sun, Tomek Strzalkowski, for their groundbreaking work in syntax, semantics, dialog, generation, commonsense, neural NLP. 🎉👏 aclweb.org/portal/content…
