>
> VarDial 2019: https://sites.google.com/view/vardial2019
>
> Co-located with NAACL 2019 in Minneapolis USA, at VarDial we anticipate
> discussion on computational methods and on language resources for
> closely related languages, language varieties and dialects. Together
> with the VarDial workshop we are organizing the third edition of the
> VarDial Evaluation Campaign with five shared tasks:

>
> Topics
>
> We welcome papers dealing with one or more of the following topics:
>
> - Language resources and tools for similar languages, varieties and
> dialects;
> - Adaptation of tools (taggers, parsers) for similar languages,
> varieties and dialects;
> - Evaluation of language resources and tools when applied to language
> varieties;
> - Reusability of language resources in NLP applications (e.g., for
> machine translation, POS tagging, syntactic parsing, etc.);
> - Corpus-driven studies in dialectology and language variation;
> - Computational approaches to the study of mutual intelligibility
> between dialects and similar languages;
> - Automatic identification of lexical variation;
> - Automatic classification of language varieties;
> - Text similarity and adaptation between language varieties;
> - Linguistic issues in the adaptation of language resources and tools
> (e.g., semantic discrepancies, lexical gaps, false friends);
> - Machine translation between closely related languages, language
> varieties and dialects.
>
> In addition to the topics listed above, we also welcome papers dealing
> with diachronic language variation (e.g. philogenetic methods,
> historical dialects).
>
> Instruction for Authors
