Final Call for Papers: 4th Workshop on Computational Linguistics for Political and Social Sciences  (CPSS 2024)

0 Veröffentlicht von Ines Rehbein am

Co-located with KONVENS-2024 in Vienna, Austria.

Workshop description

Recent years have seen more and more applications of computational methods to the analysis of political texts. This has led to the emergence of different communities (one with a background in political / social science and the other in the areas of NLP/computer science) which struggle to get awareness of the relevant work taking place in the respective other community.

The main goal of this workshop is to bridge this gap and bring together researchers and ideas from the different communities, to foster collaboration and catalyze further interdisciplinary research efforts.

Submissions

We welcome submissions of long and short papers, posters, and demonstrations relating to any aspect of Political Text Analysis using computational methods. Our workshop will accept two types of submissions:

  • archival papers describing original and unpublished work
  • non-archival papers (abstracts) that present already published research or ongoing work. 

The availability of both submission formats will meet the different needs of researchers from different communities, allowing them to come together and exchange ideas in an „get to know each other“ environment which is likely to foster future collaborations.

Submissions should report original and unpublished research on topics of interest to the workshop. Accepted papers are expected to be presented at the workshop. Archival papers will be published in the workshop proceedings. They should emphasize obtained results rather than intended work, and should indicate clearly the state of completion of the reported results.

An archival paper accepted for presentation at the workshop must not be or have been presented at any other meeting with publicly available proceedings.

Submission is electronic, using the EASYCHAIR conference management system, which can be found at this address: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cpss2024 

Long/short archival paper submissions must use the official KONVENS 2024 style templates (https://github.com/acl-org/acl-style-files). Non-archival papers (abstracts) can use any style template and must be submitted as pdf. Long papers must not exceed nine (8) pages of content. Short papers and demonstration papers must not exceed four (4) pages of content. Non-archival abstracts must not exceed one (1) page. References do not count against these limits.

Note: Supplementary material does not count towards page limit and should be included in the appendix.

Reviewing

Reviewing of papers will be double-blind. Therefore, the paper must not include the authors‘ names and affiliations or self-references that reveal the authors’ identity – e.g., „We previously showed (Smith, 1991) …“ should be replaced with citations such as „Smith (1991) previously showed …“. Papers that do not conform to these requirements will be rejected without review.

Dual Submission Policy: Dual submissions of papers are allowed. Authors of archival papers that have been or will be submitted to other meetings or publications must provide this information to the workshop co-chairs. In your message, please list the names and dates of the conferences, workshops or meetings where you have submitted or plan to submit your paper in addition to CPSS. Authors of accepted papers must notify the program chairs within 10 days of acceptance if the paper is withdrawn for any reason.
