JohnCarroll:

SIGPARSE is ACL's special interest group on natural language parsing. The main purposes of the SIG are: to promote interest in the parsing of natural languages; to provide a means of disseminating information about natural language parsing; to ensure the continuity of the biennial 'International Conferences on Parsing Technologies' (IWPT); and to endorse relevant meetings and workshops.

The next IWPT will be the 14th in the series, and will be held in Bilbao, Spain, 22-24 July 2015. The local arrangements committee is based at the University of the Basque Country, and is chaired by Koldo Gojenola. John Carroll (Sussex) is general chair for the conference, and the program chair is Stephan Oepen (Oslo). The conference has two invited speakers, Slav Petrov (Google) and Mirella Lapata (Edinburgh), and 15 papers have been accepted for presentation. The conference is co-located with the 6th Workshop on Statistical Parsing of Morphologically Rich Languages (SPMRL 2015).

In the past year, the SIG has endorsed the Joint Workshop on Statistical Parsing of Morphologically Rich Languages and Syntactic Analysis of Non-Canonical Languages, in August 2014.

The current SIGPARSE officers are: John Carroll (Sussex - President), Eric Villemonte de la Clergerie (INRIA - Secretary), Yuji Matsumoto (NAIST - Information Officer), and Kenji Sagae (USC - Information Officer). The next SIGPARSE elections will be held in late 2015, with the new SIG officers taking up their positions in January 2016.

SIGPARSE maintains a website that contains information about the SIG, upcoming activities, and instructions for joining the membership and the mailing list. Approximately 220 people are on the mailing list. The website address is http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~sigparse/

SIGPARSE is ACL's special interest group on natural language parsing. The main purposes of the SIG are: to promote interest in the parsing of natural languages; to provide a means of disseminating information about natural language parsing; to ensure the continuity of the biennial 'International Conferences on Parsing Technologies' (IWPT); and to endorse relevant meetings and workshops.

The most recent IWPT was the 13th in the series, and was held in Nara, Japan, in November 2013. The local arrangements committee was based at Nara Institute of Science and Technology, and was chaired by Yuji Matsumoto. Harry Bunt (Tilburg) was general chair for the conference, and the program co-chairs were Khalil Sima'an (Amsterdam) and Liang Huang (CUNY, New York). The conference was a success, with a rich programme of activities including: around 20 paper and poster presentations, two invited talks, a banquet, and an excursion to nearby industrial and academic research institutes.

In the past year, the SIG has endorsed the Workshop on Statistical Parsing of Morphologically Rich Languages in October 2013, and the Joint Workshop on Statistical Parsing of Morphologically Rich Languages and Syntactic Analysis of Non-Canonical Languages to be held in August 2014.

The next IWPT will take place in late 2015, and the SIG officers are currently assessing candidate locations and dates, and selecting program co-chairs.

SIGPARSE 2013 Annual Report

SIGPARSE is ACL's special interest group on natural language parsing. The main purposes of the SIG are: to promote interest in the parsing of natural languages; to provide a means of disseminating information about natural language parsing; to ensure the continuity of the biennial 'International Conferences on Parsing Technologies' (IWPT); and to sponsor relevant meetings and workshops.

In early 2013, the SIG held an election for its officers for the next 3-year term of office, 2013-15. The results of the election are as follows: John Carroll (president), Eric De La Clergerie (secretary), Yuji Matsumoto (information officer), and Kenji Sagae (information officer).

The last IWPT was the 12th in the series, and was held in Dublin, Ireland in October 2011. In recent months, the main focus of the SIG has been on preparations for the the next conference in the series. IWPT 2013, the 13th International Conference on Parsing Technologies, will be held in Nara, Japan, November 27-29, 2013. The local arrangements committee is based at Nara Institute of Science and Technology, and is chaired by Yuji Matsumoto. Harry Bunt (Tilburg) is general chair for the conference, and the program co-chairs are Khalil Sima'an (Amsterdam) and Liang Huang (CUNY, New York).

SIGPARSE maintains a website that contains information about the SIG, upcoming activities, and instructions for joining the membership and the mailing list. The website address is: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~sigparse/
