We are excited to announce that the 35th annual Conference on Computational Linguistics and Speech Processing (ROCLING 2023) will be held in Soochow University, Waishuanghsi Campus, Taipei city, Taiwan from October 20-21, 2023. Sponsored by the Association for Computational Linguistics and Chinese Language Processing (ACLCLP), ROCLING 2023 aims to provide an international forum for researchers and industry practitioners to exchange ideas, present original research findings and share practical development experiences from all areas of language and speech research. ROCLING 2023 will feature a range of activities, including oral papers, posters, tutorials, special sessions and shared tasks. The conference covers all language and speech research areas, such as computational linguistics, information understanding and signal processing, and focuses on two scientific tracks: natural language processing (NLP) and speech processing (Speech). The conference is open to papers written in both Chinese and English and encourages researchers and practitioners from around the world to submit their work. The ROCLING conference series was initiated in 1988 by ACLCLP with the aim of providing a platform for researchers and professionals to share their experiences related to natural language processing and speech processing. Since then, the conference has become an important annual event for the computational linguistics and speech processing community.

Submission Guidelines

Each submission will be reviewed based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and relevance to the conference. Accepted papers will be presented orally or as poster presentations. Both oral and poster presentations will be published in the ROCLING 2023 conference proceedings and included in the ACL Anthology. A number of papers will be selected and invited for extension into journal versions and publication in a special issue of the International Journal of Computational Linguistics and Chinese Language Processing (IJCLCLP).
