CALL FOR PAPERS

The forthcoming International Conference on Arabic Computational Linguistics (ACLing2017)will take place in Dubai on 5 and 6 November 2017 (http://www.Acling2017.org)

Introduction
The Third International Conference on Arabic Computational Linguistic (ACLing2017) will be held in Dubai in November, 2017. ACLing2017 aims to bring together leading academicians, scientists, researchers and practitioners from all over the world to exchange new ideas and the latest results in Arabic Computational Linguistics and NLP. The field has become increasingly important, as more and more Arabic information is now available through the Web, Social Media and Intranet services. We invite you to participate in ACLing2017 and we are confident that you will find the program enriching, enlightening and rewarding.

Conference topics
ACLing2017 invites researchers from academia and industry to submit their papers on recent, unpublished research that addresses theoretical aspects, algorithms, and architectures of Arabic Natural Language Processing systems. Papers describing the creation of resources, as well as survey and discussion papers, are also welcomed.

We encourage submissions dealing with the following topics:
Information Retrieval and Question Answering
Linguistic Theories and Resources
Machine Learning
Machine Translation
Multilinguality and Cross-linguality
NLP Applications
Segmentation, Tagging, and Parsing
Semantics
Sentiment Analysis and Opinion Mining
 Web, Social Media and Computational Social Science
Spoken Language Processing
Summarization
Text Categorization and Topic Modeling
Text Mining
Language and Vision

Keynote Speakers

Submission and Publication
The conference invites submissions reporting original unpublished work that is not currently under review for any other conference or journal. All the accepted papers will be published in the Procedia Computer Science (https://www.journals.elsevier.com/procedia-computer-science) by ELSEVIER. Every peer-reviewed research article appearing in Procedia Computer Science will be published open access and will have a DOI assigned. Procedia Computer Science (ISSN: 1877-0509) of this series is indexed by ISI Proceedings, EI-Compendex, DBLP, SCOPUS, and Google Scholar.

ACLing2017 invites two types of submissions which should be structured as technical papers:

Long papers: these manuscripts will not be exceeding 8 pages including including figures, tables and references. The accepted regular papers will be published in the Procedia Computer Science by ELSEVIER which will be available online at the time of the conference.

Short papers: these manuscripts will not be exceeding 4 pages including including figures, tables and references. The accepted regular papers will be published in the same Procedia Computer Science by ELSEVIER which will be available online at the time of the conference.

The conference will not consider the submission and evaluation of abstracts only.

All manuscripts will be reviewed by at least 3 reviewers who will be either members of the Programme Committee or reviewers proposed by Programme Committee members. Each manuscript and will be judged on correctness, originality, technical strength, significance, quality of presentation, and interest and relevance to the conference attendees. Submissions received after the due date, exceeding length limit, or not appropriately structured may also not be considered. Authors may contact the conference PC Chair for more information.
