__Apologies for cross-posting__ The Fifth Workshop on Technologies for Machine Translation of Low Resource Languages (LoResMT 2022) https://sites.google.com/view/loresmt
@ COLING 2022 Gyeongju, Republic of Korea, October 12-17, 2022 SUBMISSION https://www.softconf.com/coling2022/LoResMT_2022/ TIMELINE *Submission Open Until*: *July 30, 2022 (Saturday) at 23:59 (Anywhere on Earth)* *Notification of acceptance: *August 22, 2022 (Monday) *Camera-ready papers due:* September 5, 2022 (Monday) *LoResMT workshop:* October 16, 2022 (online on Sunday at UTC+9) *COLING 2022: *October 12-17, 2022 SCOPE Based on the success of past low-resource machine translation (MT) workshops at AMTA 2018 (https://amtaweb.org/), MT Summit 2019 ( https://www.mtsummit2019.com), AACL-IJCNLP 2020 (http://aacl2020.org/), and AMTA 2021, we introduce the Fifth LoResMT workshop at COLING 2022. The workshop provides a discussion panel for researchers working on MT systems/methods for low-resource and under-represented languages in general. We would like to help review/overview the state of MT for low-resource languages and define the most important directions. We also solicit papers dedicated to supplementary NLP tools that are used in any language and especially in low-resource languages. Overview papers of these NLP tools are very welcome. It will be beneficial if the evaluations of these tools in research papers include their impact on the quality of MT output. TOPICS We are highly interested in (1) original research papers, (2) review/opinion papers, and (3) online systems on the topics below; however, we welcome all novel ideas that cover research on low-resource languages. - COVID-related corpora, their translations and corresponding NLP/MT systems - Neural machine translation for low-resource languages - Work that presents online systems for practical use by native speakers - Word tokenizers/de-tokenizers for specific languages - Word/morpheme segmenters for specific languages - Alignment/Re-ordering tools for specific language pairs - Use of morphology analyzers and/or morpheme segmenters in MT - Multilingual/cross-lingual NLP tools for MT - Corpora creation and curation technologies for low-resource languages - Review of available parallel corpora for low-resource languages - Research and review papers of MT methods for low-resource languages - MT systems/methods (e.g. rule-based, SMT, NMT) for low-resource languages - Pivot MT for low-resource languages - Zero-shot MT for low-resource languages - Fast building of MT systems for low-resource languages - Re-usability of existing MT systems for low-resource languages - Machine translation for language preservation SUBMISSION INFORMATION We are soliciting two types of submissions: (1) research, review, and position papers and (2) system demonstration papers. For research, review and position papers, the length of each paper should be at least four (4) and not exceed eight (8) pages, plus unlimited pages for references. For system demonstration papers, the limit is four (4) pages. Submissions should be formatted according to the official COLING 2022 style templates (LaTeX, Word, Overleaf). Accepted papers will be published online in the COLING 2022 proceedings and will be presented at the conference. Submissions must be anonymized and should be done using the official conference management system ( https://www.softconf.com/coling2022/LoResMT_2022/). Scientific papers that have been or will be submitted to other venues must be declared as such and must be withdrawn from the other venues if accepted and published at LoResMT. The review will be double-blind. We would like to encourage authors to cite papers written in ANY language that are related to the topics, as long as both original bibliographic items and their corresponding English translations are provided. Registration is handled by the main conference ( https://coling2022.org/coling). ORGANIZING COMMITTEE (LISTED ALPHABETICALLY) Atul Kr.
