The workshop presentations will take place in Zoom on 2nd and 3rd September. We will release the final program on Tuesday, August 31.
All papers must be submitted in .pdf format through the conference management system at https://www.softconf.com/ranlp2021/ranlp2021stud/. The papers should follow the format of the main conference, described at the main RANLP website, Instructions for Authors Section. Papers should be authored or co-authored by students and in case of co-authorships, only papers whose first author is a student, will be considered. The submissions must specify the type of submission (Full or Short).
Full Papers must describe original unpublished work of the student in any topic area of the workshop. Full papers are limited to 8 pages for content, with an unlimited number of additional pages for references.
Short Papers may describe either work in progress or a research proposal for future work. They may also be in the style of a position paper that surveys and criticises existing literature. Short papers must include clear directions for future research. Submissions of this type are limited to 6 pages for content, with an unlimited number of additional pages for references.
We do not allow additional pages for appendices, which go over the above-mentioned limits. If you have supplementary material, which is not essential to the paper, such as:
link to the software or data,
pre-processing decisions, model parameters, and other details which allow replication of the experiments,
guidelines, pseudo-code,
proofs or explanations,
lists of features, etc.
these could be submitted additionally as a zip of supplementary materials. The paper submission should not rely on such materials and should be understandable without them. The reviewers will not be obliged to read these additional materials.
Authors may submit the same paper at several conferences. In this case, they must notify the organizers by filling in the corresponding information in the submission form, as well as notifying the contact organizer by e-mail.
Each submission will be reviewed by at least 2 reviewers from the Programme Committee, which features experienced researchers from all areas of NLP. The final decisions will be made based on their reviews.
