Recent Advances in Natural Language Processing (RANLP) is one of the
best-established
and competitive European NLP conferences. It is held biennially in Bulgaria
and
grew out from the international summer schools "Contemporary topics in
Computational Linguistics" organised for many years in Bulgaria as
international training events. The RANLP conferences in 1995, 1997, 2001,
and 2003 had invited talks by leading names in NLP and accepted papers
of high quality, rigorously reviewed by an international Programme
Committee
of well-known experts. The conferences also featured tutorials on "hot"
NLP topics delivered by leading researchers. RANLP 2005 will be accompanied
for the first time by post-conference workshops. Volumes with selected and
revised papers from the conference are traditionally published by
John Benjamins in the "Current Issues in Linguistic Theories (CILT)"
series.
RANLP-01 and RANLP-03 were partially supported by the European Commission.
RANLP-05 is under negotiation for funding as a Marie Curie large
conference.
RANLP-05 will feature keynote talks by:
Ido Dagan (Bar-Illan University, Israel)
Robert Dale (Macquarie University, Australia)
Anne de Roeck (Open University, UK)
Ralf Grishman (New York University, USA)
Submission deadline: End of April/beginning of May 2005
(the conference web site will have updated
information)
RANLP-05 will be held in the picturesque resort of Borovets. Located in the
Rila mountains, it is one of the best known ski and tourist resorts in
South-East Europe. Hotel Samokov, the conference venue, offers excellent
study and leisure facilities. Borovets is 1 hour by car from Sofia and 2
hours
from Plovdiv with international airports in both cities serving as
arrival/departure points.
