IberLEF 2024 -- Working Notes and Overviews Instructions

We have prepared a set of instructions to ensure uniformity of working notes for the different tasks. The organizers of each task will send them by email updated with the deadline for the submission of the working notes and with the reference to the overview paper since this information depends on each task. The instructions are as follows:

    • The minimum length of a regular paper should be 5 pages. There is no maximum page limit.

    • Papers must be written in English.

    • The conference command must be changed to \conference{IberLEF 2024, September 2024, Valladolid, Spain}

    • The footer of the first page should be in the following format:

• Eliminate the numbering in the pages of the paper, if there is one, and make sure that there are no headers. On the first page, only the mandatory copyright is allowed as a footnote. You can use footnotes on other pages, but try to keep them at a minimum.

• Authors should be described with their name and their full affiliation (university and country). Names must be complete (no initials), e.g.  “María García” instead of “M. García”.  

• Titles of papers should be in emphatic capital English notation, i.e., "Filling an Author Agreement by Autocompletion" rather than "Filling an author agreement by autocompletion".

• At least one author of each paper must sign the CEUR copyright agreement. The signed form must be sent along with the paper to the task organizers. Important: it must be physically signed with pen on paper. These are the two agreement variants, select the one that fits your case. 

  • • AUTHOR-AGREEMENT (NTP): Authors shall use this form if they included no copyrighted third party material in their paper text (or accompanying sources, datasets). This is the right variant in most cases.

    • AUTHOR-AGREEMENT (TP): Authors shall use this form if they did include copyrighted third party material in their paper or accompanying material. They must then also attach a copy of the permission by the third party to use this material in the signed author agreement!  

• In the field Name and year of the event of the CEUR agreement should be written: IberLEF 2024. In the field Editors of the proceedings (editors), the following names must appear: Salud María Jiménez-Zafra, Luis Chiruzzo, Francisco Rangel, Ulisses B.
