Report by David Chiang

NAACL HLT 2010 was held at the Millennium Biltmore Hotel in downtown Los
Angeles, June 1-6, 2010, with the banquet at the nearby Maguire Gardens
in front of the central library. The local arrangements committee was
based at USC Information Sciences Institute. Nearly 700 people were in
attendance.

The main program consisted of 85 long papers, 25 short papers, 34
posters, and 12 demos. This year, there was a special focus on research
with noisy data, including data from informal communications (such as
Twitter, blogs, e-mail, SMS) and processed data (such as speech, OCR,
historical data, and machine translation). It incorporated for the first
time a "one-minute madness" session to raise awareness and excitement
about the poster and demo presentations. Also for the first time, the
proceedings were distributed on a USB memory stick, unaccompanied by a
hardcopy volume.

The conference website (naaclhlt2010.isi.edu) has been viewed over
60,000 times from more than 100 countries. In keeping with the
conference's theme, we also note that #naacl2010 was the subject of
hundreds of tweets on Twitter.
