Following the success of the previous workshops on Patent and Scientific 
Literature Translation, we are organizing the 9th Workshop on Patent and 
Scientific Literature Translation (PSLT 2021) held in conjunction with MT 
Summit 2021.
Due to continuing COVID restrictions on travel, we have decided to hold PSLT 
2021 online on 16 August, 2021.
Machine translation of patent information  and different types of scientific 
literature is in high demand, while there still remain open problems to make 
the machine translation results more sophisticated. The workshop covers a wide 
range of topics related to the unique features of scientific literature 
including patents, scientific papers, and technical reports. The workshop, 
which consists of invited talks, presentation of submitted papers, and free 
discussion will be an opportunity for researchers and practitioners to get 
together and exchange their ideas and experiences.


* Invited Speakers
  TBD

* Topics of Interests
  We solicit original research papers as well as survey papers and user 
reports. Topics of interests include but not limited to:
  - Machine translation of patents and scientific literature
  - Domain adaptation of MT systems
  - Translation aids for patents and scientific literature
  - Language resources for patent and scientific literature translation
  - Evaluation techniques for patent and scientific literature translation
  - Controlled languages and machine translation
  - Multilingual retrieval and classification of patents and scientific 
literature

* Important Dates
#  - Wednesday, 23 June: Paper submission deadline
#  - Sunday, 4 July: Notifications to authors
#  - Sunday, 11 July: Camera-ready versions due

* Submission Instructions
The format for papers is the same as for regular MT Summit 2021 style guide.

Papers should not be longer than 10 pages of content (for references, unlimited 
number of pages is allowed). The papers must be submitted in PDF format and 
adhere to one of the following style guides: PDF version, LaTeX version, MS 
Word version. To allow for blind reviewing, please do not include author names 
and affiliations within the paper and avoid obvious self-references. Papers 
must represent new work that has not been previously published (pre-prints 
posted online on servers such as arXiv do not count as published papers, and 
thus are allowed to be submitted; we do not require a 1-month anonymity period 
for previous submissions on arXiv). Authors submitting a similar paper to 
another conference or workshop must specify this at submission time; if the 
paper is accepted to multiple venues, the author must choose which one to 
present at.

Papers must be submitted to the following website by 11:59 pm Anywhere on Earth 
(UTC-12), 23 June, 2021. Choose the track of "Workshop - Patent And Scientific 
Literature Translation" when creating new submission.
