Paper Types and Formats
LREC-COLING 2024 sincerely invites high-quality English submissions. We will consider the following three forms of dissertation :
A. Regular Long Papers – up to 8 pages * presenting substantive, original, completed and unpublished work.
B. Short paper - up to four pages * , describing a small focused contribution, negative results, system demonstration, etc.
C. Position papers - up to 8 pages * , discussing key issues, challenges and open problems, and the intersection between computational linguistics and other disciplines.
* Excludes references, ethical considerations, conflicts of interest, and data and code availability statements.
Upon acceptance, the final version of a long paper will be increased by one page - up to nine pages plus unlimited acknowledgments and references. Final versions of short papers can be up to five pages, plus unlimited acknowledgments and references. All figures and tables that are part of the main text, whether long or short, must fit within these page limits.
In addition, appendices or supplementary material are only allowed in the final, ready-to-publish version, but not at submission, as papers are reviewed without reference to any supplementary material.
Language examples (if any) should be presented in the original language, but should also be embellished in English to make them accessible to a wider audience.
Note that the paper type is a decision made in conjunction with the final final presentation format (ie oral vs. poster).
Papers and Templates for Submission
Papers are submitted electronically using the Softconf START conference management system, accessed through the link :
https://softconf.com/lrec-coling2024/papers/
Both long and short papers must follow the LREC-COLING 2024 two-column format and use the official format files provided. These templates can be downloaded from the style files and formats pages available on the website. Please do not modify these style files, nor should you use templates designed for other conferences. Submissions that do not meet the required style ( including paper size, margin width, and font size restrictions ) will be rejected without review.
Author's Responsibility
Papers must be original, previously unpublished work. Papers must be anonymous to support double-blind review. Therefore, submissions cannot include the author's name and affiliation. Submitted code should also avoid linking to non-anonymous repositories : code should be submitted as supplementary material to the final version of the paper, or as a link to an anonymous repository ( eg, Anonymous GitHub or Anonymous Share) . Papers that do not meet these requirements will be rejected without review.
If the paper is a preprint, this must be noted on the submission form, not on the paper itself. Additionally, LREC-COLING 2024 will follow the same policy as ACL conferences, establishing an anonymity period during which non-anonymous posting of preprints will not be permitted.
More specifically, non -anonymous submissions directly to LREC - COLING 2024 cannot be made online ( e.g. via pre- print server ) .
The policy also includes asking reviewers not to score papers for not citing a recent preprint. Authors are asked to cite published papers, rather than preprints, where possible.
Papers that have been or will be concurrently considered in other venues must be declared at the time of submission. If a paper is accepted for publication at LREC-COLING 2024 , it must be withdrawn from other conferences immediately. If a paper reviewed at LREC-COLING 2024 is accepted elsewhere, and authors intend to continue there, the LREC-COLING 2024 committee must be notified immediately.
ethics statement
We encourage all authors submitting to LREC-COLING 2024 to include an explicit ethics statement after the conclusions but before the references, addressing the wider implications of their work, or other ethical considerations. Ethical statements do not count towards the page limit ( 8 pages for long papers and 4 pages for short papers ) .
Speech Requirements
All papers accepted by the main conference must be submitted at the conference to appear in the proceedings, and at least one author must be registered in LREC-COLING2024 . Papers will be presented either orally or as a poster. The specific presentation method of the paper will be determined according to its content, and there will be no difference in quality. Papers that include a presentation section will be presented as posters.
All accepted papers for the main conference will be required to submit a presentation video. Conferences will be hybrid, with an emphasis on encouraging interaction between online and in-person formats, so presentations can be live as well as online.
