Swiss Track
=========
The goal of the Swiss Track is to bring together experts from Swiss industry and academia. For this track, we are looking for presentations with a certain “Swissness” factor:
-
Your company or university is located in Switzerland
-
You provide a text analytics solution for one (or more) of the languages of Switzerland (including Swiss dialects);
-
Your product focuses primarily on the Swiss market;
-
or any other factor that connects your presentation to Switzerland.
Presentations can be
-
Showcases
-
Demos
-
Applications
-
Resources
-
Research results
-
or any other contribution that is interesting to the audience.
In this track, we also welcome scientific contributions that were already published in other conferences or journals - as long as they have a Swissness factor.
For this track, only a short abstract (up to 1500 characters) has to be submitted, along with a CV of the presenter (max 500 chars) and the intended audience ( e.g. developers, decision makers, project managers, max. 300 chars). All data is entered online via EasyChair.
Note: If you intend to publish a full scientific paper with a Swiss-related topic, please submit it to the Scientific Track.
Scientific Track
============
SwissText has the goal to feature a profound technical program. We invite submissions of scientific papers in all areas in the fields of Natural Language Processing (NLP), Computational Linguistics (CL), and Machine Learning/Data Science with a focus on Text Analytics.

Anonymize: The review process will be double blind; we ask authors to anonymize their submission reasonably. Instead of e.g. “We previously showed (Smith, 1991) …“, write “Smith previously showed (Smith, 1991) …“
-
Manuscripts must describe original work that has neither been published before, nor is currently under review elsewhere.
-
Submission will be made through EasyChair
