Presentation
------------
RECITAL 2015, the annual meeting for young researchers associated to the TALN
conference, will take place in Caen (France) on June 22 to 25.
RECITAL provides a venue for young researchers investigating topics in
Computational Linguistics and Natural Language Processing to present their
research, meet potential advisors, and receive feedback from the research
community. Authors must be students (Master or Ph.D.) or young researchers who
recently completed their Ph.d. RECITAL 2015 will include oral and poster
presentations. The official language is French but English presentations and
papers are accepted for non-French-speaking authors.
Building on the success of the previous year, we are encouraging the submission
of research proposals and papers describing preliminary works (state-of-the-art,
first experiments, etc.). RECITAL's main goal is to support the work of young
researchers and facilitate their integration into our community. To this aim
we enhance :
- pedagogic reviews : authors should be able to understand their mistakes and
correct them in order to improve the quality of their work;
- positive reviews : it is never necessary to discourage a young researcher,
watchwords will be encouraging/guiding;
- direct exchange : all the reviews will be signed. Authors and reviewers are
encouraged to discuss together during the conference.
A prize will be awarded to the author(s) of the best paper during the closing
ceremony.
A scholarship program is set up to help authors of accepted papers.
These grants include travel to Caen and conference registration.
They shall be granted after examination on a case-by-case requests and
submitted papers.
