2013-07-01

We are pleased to announce that eleven papers authored by students and staff in our group have been accepted for presentation at ACL 2013 conference and associated workshops, to be held in Sofia, Bulgaria in August.

Furthermore, one of NaCTeM's submissions (Mihăilă et al.) to the 7th Linguistic Annotation Workshop & Interoperability with Discourse (LAW-VII & ID) has won the LAW Challenge after careful evaluation by the members of the LAW-VII & ID programme committee. Based on their recommendations, the paper has received an award of US $2500 to cover the authors' travel expenses. The workshop is to be held at ACL 2013, August 8-9.
