* Second Call for Papers: EACL 2024

The 18th Conference of the European Chapter of the Association for 
Computational Linguistics (EACL 2024) invites the submission of long and short 
papers on substantial, original, and unpublished research on Natural Language 
Processing. EACL 2024 will be held at the Hotel Radisson Blu, St. Julians, in 
Malta on 17th-22nd March 2024, with online attendance possible.
Papers must be submitted to EACL 2024 via the ACL Rolling Review (ARR) system. 
As in recent years, some of the presentations at the conference will be for 
papers accepted by the Transactions of the ACL (TACL) and Computational 
Linguistics (CL) journals.

- NLP Applications
- Phonology, Morphology, and Word Segmentation
- Question Answering
- Resources and Evaluation
- Semantics: Lexical
- Semantics: Sentence-level Semantics, Textual Inference and other areas

- Speech and Multimodality
- Summarization
- Syntax: Tagging, Chunking and Parsing

* Long Papers

Long paper submissions must describe substantial, original, completed and 
unpublished work. Wherever appropriate, concrete evaluation and analysis should 
be included. Long papers may consist of up to 8 pages of content, plus 
unlimited pages for references and appendices. Upon acceptance, long papers 
will be given one additional page of content (i.e. up to 9 pages) in the 
proceedings so that reviewers’ comments can be taken into account.

* Short Papers

Short paper submissions must describe original and unpublished work. Please 
note that a short paper is not a shortened long paper. Instead, short papers 
should have a point that can be made in a few pages. Short papers may consist 
of up to 4 pages of content, plus unlimited references and appendices. Upon 
acceptance, short papers will be given one additional page of content (i.e. up 
to 5 pages) in the proceedings so that reviewers’ comments can be taken into 
account.

* Findings of the ACL

Papers submitted to EACL 2024, but not selected for the main conference, will 
also automatically be considered for publication in the Findings of the 
Association of Computational Linguistics. Acceptance notifications for the main 
track and Findings will come out simultaneously.

* Presentation Mode

Long and short papers will be presented orally or as posters, as determined by 
the programme committee based on the nature rather than the quality of the 
work. While short papers will be distinguished from long papers in the 
proceedings, there will be no distinction in the proceedings between papers 
presented orally and as posters. Papers accepted to the Findings of the ACL may 
present a poster.

* Presentation Requirements

All accepted papers must be presented at the conference—either online or 
in-person—in order to appear in the proceedings. Authors of papers accepted for 
presentation at EACL 2024 must notify the program chairs by the withdrawal 
deadline if they wish to withdraw the paper. At least one author of each 
accepted paper must register for EACL 2024 by the early registration deadline.

* Paper Submission and Anonymity

Following standard ACL and ARR policy, submitted papers must be prepared for 
two-way anonymized review, and no deanonymized preprint may be posted in the 
month prior to submission. Please see the ARR CfP for more detail.

* Policies on Authorship, Citation and Ethics

EACL 2024 follows the ARR policies on authorship, citation and comparison and 
ethics - please see the ARR CfP.

* Multiple Submission Policy

EACL 2024 follows the ARR policy on multiple submission: we will not consider 
any paper that is under review in a journal or another conference at the time 
of submission, and submitted papers must not be submitted elsewhere during the 
review period. See the ARR CfP for more detail. Please note that the EACL 2024 
submission deadline is currently timed to come after EMNLP 2023 decisions have 
been announced, and that EACL 2024 acceptance decisions will be announced 
before the likely submission deadline for ACL 2024, although after that for 
NAACL 2024.

* Mandatory Discussion of Limitations

We believe that it is also important to discuss the limitations of your work, 
in addition to its strengths. Following EACL 2023, EACL 2024 requires all 
papers to have a clear discussion of limitations, in a dedicated section titled 
“Limitations”. This section will appear at the end of the paper, after the 
discussion/conclusions section and before the references, and will not count 
towards the page limit. Papers without a limitations section will be 
automatically rejected without review. Papers resubmitted from previous ARR 
review rounds that did not include a limitations section must ensure that such 
a section is included in the EACL 2024 version.
While we are open to different types of limitations, just mentioning that a set 
of results have been shown for English only probably does not reflect what we 
expect. Mentioning that the method works mostly for languages with limited 
morphology, like English, is a much better alternative. In addition, 
limitations such as low scalability to long text, the requirement of large GPU 
resources, or other things that inspire further investigation are welcome.
