[Apologies for cross posting]
The first annual WeCNLP Summit is an opportunity to foster discussion and collaboration between NLP researchers in academia and industry. The event will include talks from research leaders on the latest advances in NLP technologies. The day will conclude with a happy hour and poster session where attendees can learn from each other in an informal setting. We invite submissions in areas of NLP related, but not limited to, the following topics: * dialog systems * biomedical text processing * multilingual NLP (translation, cross-lingual representations) * building NLP in a responsible way (ethics, model understanding, etc.) We encourage NLP researchers to submit an abstract describing new, previously, or concurrently published research. We welcome abstract submissions, in theory, methodology, as well as applications. Abstracts may describe completed research or work-in-progress. We also welcome abstract submissions on negative results as well as challenges faced in industrial or academic applications. Authors of accepted abstracts will be asked to present their work in a poster session. Submissions will be peer-reviewed in a double-blind setting. *Applications close August 28, 2018, 11:59 PST*. More details and instructions on how to apply are available at https://wecnlpsummit18.splashthat.com/ RSVP is available at https://wecnlpsummit2018rsvp.splashthat.com Note that in order to make sure we get an equitable distribution of people from various institutions, signing up on the website will add people to a waitlist. We will follow up with an official confirmation via email for those who make it off the waitlist. Please send email to juancarab...@fb.com or cmogh...@fb.com for further questions.
