日本データベース学会のみなさま、

お茶の水女子大学の小林です。

2019年10月29日ー11月2日に、東京お台場にある日本科学未来館でアジア圏で初となる
International Conference on Natural Language Generation (INLG) 2019
が開催されます。

近年、自然言語生成は、深層学習モデルの発展によりとても注目される技術となってきて
います。INLGは世界中の自然言語生成の研究者が一同に介する会議です。

投稿の〆切まで、まだ一ヶ月後ほどございます。どうぞたくさんのご投稿ならびにご参加を
お待ちしております。

INLG 2019 Second Call for papers
Updates:
- The submission deadline was changed to allow the submission of the same
paper to BOTH INLG 2019 and EMNLP 2019 (following EMNLP’s assurance that 9
July will be regarded as the end of their reviewing period.)
- Partial list of invited speakers announced

=======================================

12th International Conference on Natural Language Generation
Tokyo, Japan, October 29 - November 1, 2019

Website: www.inlg2019.com [1]
Contact: info [at] inlg2019.com [2]

=======================================

The 12th International Conference on Natural Language Generation (INLG 2019)
will be held at the National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation
(Miraikan) in Tokyo, Japan, October 29 - November 1, 2019. The conference
takes place immediately prior to EMNLP-IJNLP 2019, which will be held in Hong
Kong starting November 3.

We invite the submission of long and short papers, as well as system
demonstrations, related to all aspects of Natural Language Generation (NLG),
including data-to-text, concept-to-text, text-to-text and vision-to-text
approaches. Accepted papers will be presented as oral talks or posters.

The event is organised under the auspices of the Special Interest Group on
Natural Language Generation (SIGGEN) of the Association for Computational
Linguistics (ACL).

- Applications for people with disabilities
- Cognitive modelling of language production
- Content and text planning
- Corpora and resources for NLG
- Deep learning models for NLG
- Ethical considerations of NLG
- Evaluation of NLG systems
- Generalizability of NLG systems
- Grounded language generation
- Lexicalisation
- Multimedia and multimodality in generation
- Natural language understanding techniques for NLG
- NLG and accessibility
- NLG and speech synthesis
- NLG in dialogue
- NLG for embodied agents and robots
- NLG for real-world applications
- Paraphrasing, summarization and translation
- Personalisation and variation in text
- Referring expression generation
- Storytelling and narrative generation
- Surface realisation
- Systems architecture

A separate call for workshops will be released soon.

=======================================

Submissions &amp; Format

Submissions should follow the new ACL Author Guidelines and policies for
submission, review and citation, and be anonymised for double blind
reviewing. ACL 2019 offers both LaTeX style files and Microsoft Word
templates.  Papers should be submitted electronically through the START
conference management system (to be opened in due course).

Three kinds of papers can be submitted:

- Long papers are most appropriate for presenting substantial research
results and must not exceed eight (8) pages of content, with up to two
additional pages for references.

- Short papers are more appropriate for presenting an ongoing research effort
and must not exceed four (4) pages, with up to one extra page for references.

- Demo papers should be no more than two (2) pages in length, including
references, and should describe implemented systems which are of relevance to
the NLG community. Authors of demo papers should be willing to present a demo
of their system during INLG 2019.

All accepted papers will be published in the INLG 2019 proceedings and
included in the ACL anthology. A paper accepted for presentation at INLG 2019
must not have been presented at any other meeting with publicly available
proceedings. Dual submission to other conferences is permitted, provided that
authors clearly indicate this in the &quot;Acknowledgements&quot;
section of the paper
when submitted. If the paper is accepted at both venues, the authors will
need to choose which venue to present at, since they can not present the same
paper twice.

=======================================

Program Co-Chairs:

Kees van Deemter (Utrecht University, Netherlands)
Chenghua Lin (University of Aberdeen, UK)
Hiroya Takamura (Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan)
