SUBMISSIONS

Long papers

EMNLP 2015 submissions must describe substantial, original, completed
and unpublished work. Wherever appropriate, concrete evaluation and
analysis should be included. Each submission will be reviewed by at
least three program committee members.

Each long paper submission consists of a paper of up to eight (8)
pages of content, plus two pages for references. Final versions of
long papers will be given one additional page (up to 9 pages with 2
pages for references) so that reviewers’ comments can be taken into
account.

Short papers

EMNLP 2015 also solicits short papers. Short paper submissions must
describe original and unpublished work. While a short paper is not a
shortened long paper, the characteristics of short papers include:

- A small, focused contributiond
- Work in progress
- A negative result
- An opinion piece
- An interesting application nugget

Each short paper submission consists of up to four (4) pages of
content, plus 2 pages for references. Upon acceptance, short papers
will be given five (5) pages in the proceedings and 2 pages for
references. Final versions of short papers will also be given one
additional page (up to 5 pages with 2 pages for references), so that
reviewers’ comments can be taken into account.

Both long and short papers

Papers may be accompanied by the resources (software and/or data)
described in the papers. Papers that are submitted with accompanying
software/data may receive additional credit toward the overall
evaluation score, and the potential impact of the software and data
will be taken into account when making the acceptance/rejection
decisions.

Accepted papers will be presented orally or as a poster (at the
discretion of the program chairs). There will be no distinction in the
proceedings between papers presented orally or as posters.


Formatting

Both long and short papers should follow the two-column format to be
provided at the conference site:

http://www.emnlp2015.org/submissions.html

We reserve the right to reject submissions if the paper does not
conform to these styles, including paper size and font size
restrictions.

As the reviewing will be blind, papers should not include the authors'
names and affiliations. Furthermore, self-references that reveal the
author's identity, e.g., “We previously showed (Smith, 1991) ...”,
should be avoided. Instead, use citations such as “Smith (1991)
previously showed ...”. Submissions that do not conform to these
requirements will be rejected without review. Separate author
identification information is required as part of the on-line
submission process.

We are now accepting long and short paper submissions on SoftConf:

https://www.softconf.com/emnlp2015/papers

To minimize network congestion we request authors upload their
submissions as early as possible.

EMNLP multiple submission policy

Papers that have been or will be submitted to other meetings or
publications must indicate this at submission time, and must be
withdrawn from the other venues if accepted by EMNLP 2015. We will
not accept for publication or presentation papers that overlap
significantly in content or results with papers that will be (or have
been) published elsewhere.

Authors submitting more than one paper to EMNLP 2015 must ensure that
submissions do not overlap significantly ()25%) with each other in
content or results.

Preprint servers such as arXiv.org and ACL-related workshops that do
not have published proceedings in the ACL Anthology are not considered
archival for purposes of submission. Authors must state in the online
submission form the name of the workshop or preprint server and title
of the non-archival version. The submitted version should be suitably
anonymized and not contain references to the prior non-archival
version. Reviewers will be told: "The author(s) have notified us that
there exists a non-archival previous version of this paper with
significantly overlapping text. We have approved submission under
these circumstances, but to preserve the spirit of blind review, the
current submission does not reference the non-archival version."
Reviewers are free to do what they like with this information.

PRESENTATION REQUIREMENT

All accepted papers must be presented at the conference to appear in
the proceedings. At least one author of each accepted paper must
register for EMNLP 2015.
