LRE Journal Special Issue: Computational Semantic
Analysis of Language - SemEval-2014 and beyond

Second Call for Papers

(apologies for multiple postings)

http://alt.qcri.org/semeval2014/index.php?id=lre-special-
issue

We invite submissions of articles describing in-depth
evaluation
exercises on computational semantics of text. A natural
candidate is
an extended "task description" paper from SemEval-2014,
which includes
a broad description of the problem, resources used,
system comparison,
analysis of results, and novel conclusions.

However, we do not limit the contributions to SemEval-
related works.
Instead, other works presenting substantial experimental
evaluation on
natural language semantics are also welcome.

Finally, papers describing concrete NLP
systems/approaches on one of
those semantic tasks are welcome too, provided they
present relevant
evaluation on the task at hand and highlight important
properties of
the problem, resources, etc.

Out of scope are system description papers which do not
add insights
on the specific problem they tackled in SemEval.


SUBMISSION:

Please submit your articles at
http://www.editorialmanager.com/lrev/default.asp
Make sure to select “S.I. : SemEval-2014” when asked to
provide the
article type.
You may either submit full articles that should not
exceed 25 pages or
shorter “project notes” that are 10 pages long.
