This is a joint announcement and call for participation and papers for

and
MT Marathon 2018 (Sept 3-Sept 8; Prague, Czech Republic, EU)
This year, you are again most welcome to take part in one of (or both!)
Machine Translation Marathons. The US edition, this year sponsored by

The EU edition is sponsored by EAMT and organized by the Institute of
Formal and Applied Linguistics (UFAL), Charles University, and takes

Each Machine Translation Marathon is a week long gathering of machine
translation researchers, developers, students and users featuring:
- Summer school: MT Lectures and Labs covering the basics and tutorials.
- Research talks on trending topics.

** Call for papers **
The MT Marathon in Prague will again host an Open Source Convention to
advance the state of the art in machine translation. We invite
developers of open source tools to present their work and submit a paper
of up to 10 pages that describes the underlying methodology and includes
instructions on how to download and use the tools. We are looking for
stand-alone tools and extensions of existing tools, such as the Moses
open source system for PBMT or the many toolkits for NMT. Accepted
papers will be presented during the MT Marathon in Prague and published
in the Prague Bulletin of Mathematical Linguistics
(http://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/pbml).
Deadlines:
Abstract submission: June 26 (one paragraph, to allocate reviewers)
Paper submission: July 10, 2018
Notification: July 27, 2018
Camera-ready deadline: August 3, 2018
