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, such as SPMRL
(Statistical Parsing of Morphologically Rich Languages).

The last IWPT (15th in the serie) was successfully held on Pisa, Italy
(September 20-22, 2017), in conjunction with DepLing
(http://depling.org) and the EPE shared task (Extrinsic Parser
Evaluation, http://epe.nlpl.eu). The local arrangements committee was
handled by the University of Pisa and ILC-CNR, by Giuseppe Attardi,
Felice Dell’Orletta, Alessandro Lenci, Simonetta Montemagni, and Maria
Simi. Kenji Sagae (UC Davis, USA) was general chair for the conference
and Yusuke Miyao (National Institute of Informatics, Japan) was
program chair.

The next edition of IWPT will take place in 2019.

The current SIGPARSE officers are:
*Eric Villemonte de la Clergerie (INRIA, President)
*Stephan Oepen (Univ. of Oslo, Secretary)
*Yuji Matsumoto (NAIST - Information Officer),
*Kenji Sagae (USC - Information Officer)
*Anders Søgaard (Univ. Copenhagen - Information Officer).

The next election should be organized in January 2019.

SIGPARSE maintains a website (http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~./sigparse/) that
contains information about the SIG, upcoming activities, and
instructions for joining the membership and the mailing list. There
are 256 members of SIGPARSE. Membership count is based on the sigparse
mailing list, which automatically purges invalid addresses, and to
which anyone is free to subscribe.
