=================================

15th International Conference on Computational Semantics (IWCS)

Université de Lorraine, Nancy, France

20-23th June 2023

      http://iwcs2023.loria.fr/


IWCS is the biennial meeting of SIGSEM [1], the ACL special interest
group on semantics [2]; this year's edition is organized in person by the
Loria [3] and IDMC [4] of the Université de Lorraine.

The aim of the IWCS conference is to bring together researchers
interested in any aspects of the computation, annotation, extraction,
representation and neuralisation of meaning in natural language,
whether this is from a lexical or structural semantic perspective.
IWCS embraces both symbolic and machine learning approaches to
computational semantics, and everything in between. The conference
and workshops will take place 20-23 June 2023.


=== TOPICS OF INTEREST ===

We invite paper submissions in all areas of computational semantics, in
other words all computational aspects of meaning of natural language within
written, spoken, signed, or multi-modal communication.

Presentations will be oral and posters.

Submissions are invited on these closely related areas, including the
following:

* design of meaning representations
* syntax-semantics interface
* representing and resolving semantic ambiguity
* shallow and deep semantic processing and reasoning
* hybrid symbolic and statistical approaches to semantics
* distributional semantics
* alternative approaches to compositional semantics
* inference methods for computational semantics
* recognising textual entailment
* learning by reading
* methodologies and practices for semantic annotation
* machine learning of semantic structures
* probabilistic computational semantics
* neural semantic parsing
* computational aspects of lexical semantics
* semantics and ontologies
* semantic web and natural language processing
* semantic aspects of language generation
* generating from meaning representations
* semantic relations in discourse and dialogue
* semantics and pragmatics of dialogue acts
* multimodal and grounded approaches to computing meaning
* semantics-pragmatics interface
* applications of computational semantics


=== SUBMISSION INFORMATION ===


Two types of submission are solicited: long papers and short papers. Both
types should be submitted not later than 3 March (anywhere on earth).

Long papers should describe original research and must not exceed 8 pages
(not counting acknowledgements and references).
Short papers (typically system or project descriptions, or ongoing research)
must not exceed 4 pages (not counting acknowledgements and references).

Both types will be published in the conference proceedings and in the ACL
Anthology. Accepted papers get an extra page in the camera-ready version.

Style-files:

IWCS papers should be formatted following the common two-column structure
as used by ACL. Please use our specific style-files or the Overleaf template, taken
from ACL 2021. Similar to ACL 2021, initial submissions should be fully anonymous
to ensure double-blind reviewing.

Submitting:

Papers should be submitted in PDF format via Softconf:

https://softconf.com/iwcs2023/papers

Please make sure that you select the right track when submitting your paper.
Contact the organisers if you have problems using Softconf.

No anonymity period

IWCS 2023 does not have an anonymity period. However, we ask you to be
reasonable and not publicly advertise your preprint during (or right before) review.


=== IMPORTANT DATES ===

15 March 2023 (anywhere on earth) Paper submissions

17 April 2023 Decisions sent to authors

15 May 2023 Camera-ready papers due
