Submission deadline | April 15, 2022 |
Computational Linguistics in Bulgaria (CLIB) is an international conference that aims at exploring novel approaches and methods in computational linguistics and natural language processing (NLP), especially with a view to their application to small and less-resourced languages such as Bulgarian and the bridging of the discrepancies between big and small languages with respect to language technologies. In addition, the Conference is dedicated to fostering the NLP community and furthering the cooperation between Bulgarian and foreign researchers and teams around the world through sharing high-quality scientific results in all areas of computational linguistics and NLP.
CLIB 2022 is organised by the Department of Computational Linguistics at the Institute for Bulgarian Language Prof. Lyubomir Andreychin and the Institute of Information and Communication Technologies, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences.

List of Topics
CLIB invites contributions on original research, including, but not limited to the following topics:
-
semantics, syntax, grammar and the lexicon;
-
cognitive, mathematical and computational models of language processing;
-
lexical semantics and ontologies, linked open data;
-
linguistic annotation – POS tagging, syntactic and semantic parsing, evaluation, etc.;
-
word sense disambiguation, word/sentence/text embeddings;
-
MWE recognition;
-
information extraction and retrieval, question answering;
-
text analysis and summarisation;
-
NLP methods and applications (such as machine translation, text-to-speech and speech-to-text generation, eLearning, etc.);
-
corpus linguistics;
-
NLP tools and their evaluation;
-
multilingual processing and applications, machine translation and translation aids.
SPECIAL SESSION ON WORDNETS, FRAMENETS AND ONTOLOGIES
A special session on wordnets, framenets and ontologies will be held during the Conference. The special session brings together researchers interested in the principles, theory, practice and applications of wordnets, ontologies, related linguistic resources and their interoperability and seeks to establish a dedicated community and to foster joint initiatives in this particular field.
Submission Guidelines
There will be two categories of research papers: oral and poster presentations. All accepted papers will be included in the Conference proceedings. Papers must be submitted in English.
On submission, please indicate whether you submit a paper to the main Conference or to the Special Session on wordnets, framenets and ontologies.
Reviewing will be double blind. Each submission will be reviewed by at least two anonymous reviewers.
Additional information and CLIB 2022 style guidelines are available at the Conference site: http://dcl.bas.bg/clib/instructions-for-authors/.
