WORKSHOP OVERVIEW AND SCOPE
The ACL BioNLP workshop associated with the SIGBIOMED special interest group has established itself as the primary venue for presenting foundational research in language processing for the biological and medical domains. The workshop serves as both a venue for bringing together researchers in bio- and clinical NLP and exposing these researchers to the mainstream ACL research, and a venue for informing the mainstream ACL researchers about the fast growing and important domain. The workshop will continue presenting work on a broad and interesting range of topics in NLP.
The active areas of research include, but are not limited to:
- Entity identification and normalization (linking) for a broad range of semantic categories
- Extraction of complex relations and events
- Discourse analysis
- Anaphora/coreference resolution
- Text mining / Literature based discovery
- Summarization
- Question Answering
- Resources and novel strategies for system testing and evaluation
- Infrastructures for biomedical text mining / Processing and annotation platforms
- Translating NLP research to practice
- Explainable models for biomedical NLP
- Multi-modal models for biomedical NLP
- Getting reproducible results
- BioNLP research in languages other than English
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
Two types of submissions are invited: full papers and short papers.
Full papers should not exceed eight (8) pages of text, plus unlimited references. Final versions of full papers will be given one additional page of content (up to 9 pages) so that reviewers' comments can be taken into account. Full papers are intended to be reports of original research. BioNLP aims to be the forum for interesting, innovative, and promising work involving biomedicine and language technology, whether or not yielding high performance at the moment. This by no means precludes our interest in and preference for mature results, strong performance, and thorough evaluation. Both types of research and combinations thereof are encouraged.
Short papers may consist of up to four (4) pages of content, plus unlimited references. Upon acceptance, short papers will still be given up to five (5) content pages in the proceedings. Appropriate short paper topics include preliminary results, application notes, descriptions of work in progress, etc.
Please see https://acl2020.org/calls/papers/ for templates.
Dual submission policy
Papers may NOT be submitted to the BioNLP 2020 workshop if they are or will be concurrently submitted to another meeting or publication.
