Call for demos

SUBMISSIONS

NoDaLiDa addresses all aspects of speech recognition and synthesis, natural language processing, and computational linguistics, including work in closely related neighbouring disciplines (such as, for example, linguistics or psychology) that is sufficiently formalized or applied to bear relevance to speech and language technologies.

We invite submissions for software or resource demonstrations, e.g. of systems, interfaces, infrastructures, data collections, or annotations. Demonstration submissions should outline the nature and scope of what will be demonstrated, including sufficient detail to allow evaluation of its validity, quality, and relevance to the NoDaLiDa community and topics of interest (see above).

Demonstration papers accepted for presentation at the conference will be included in the NoDaLiDa 2015 proceedings, and published as part of the NEALT Proceedings Series by Linköping University Electronic Press. The proceedings will be publicly available in the ACL Anthology: http://aclweb.org/anthology-new/

As part of the main conference, demonstrations will be presented parallel to the poster session(s), where each demonstration will have available (at least) a table and large screen, as well as space for an overview poster. In case there are technical needs beyond power and (wireless) network access, these must be specified as part of the submission.
