Instructions for Camera-Ready versions of manuscripts

The DEADLINE is February 28th, 2022 by 23:59:59 (UTC-12, “anywhere on earth”).

Submissions must use the ACL stylesheet and templates. You may use either the Microsoft Word template or the LaTeX template.

When submitting your final camera-ready version (due April 22, 2022), please note that in doing so you agree with and consent to the following:

Transfer of copyright/Permission for publication

  1. By submitting a camera-ready version of a submission that has been accepted for presentation as a paper, you agree that copyright to the work (including, without limitation, the right to publish the work in whole or in part in any and all forms and media, now or hereafter known) is transferred to the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL). For details and exceptions, see the complete copyright form.
  2. By submitting the camera-ready version of a submission that has been accepted for presentation as either a paper or an extended abstract, you agree to permit the Organizing Committee of the ComputEL-5 workshop to publish the work (in whole or in part in any and all forms and media, now or hereafter known).

All camera-ready final manuscripts shall follow the style and formatting guidelines provided in the CompuEL-5 Style Files, with template files above. For final, camera ready, submissions:

  • If using the LaTeX template, please remove the ‘review’ parameter on line 8 in \usepackage[review]{acl}
  • If using the Word template, please deanonymize your paper and remove the running line numbers (Layout > line numbers > None)

Please also adhere to the page length limits determined by what format your submission was accepted in: Submissions accepted as full long papers and for presentation will be allowed one additional page beyond the original length of the manuscript (i.e max. 5-9 pages), excluding references. Submissions of any length accepted as extended abstracts for presentation will be allowed max. 5 pages, excluding references.

Please note that ALL final manuscripts MUST follow the style and formatting guidelines indicated above, regardless of whether the manuscript has been accepted as a paper or as an extended abstract, or whether the original manuscript followed the style and formatting guidelines or not.

Please also note that the final versions of the manuscripts shall be revised and improved versions of the material content that was submitted for, and which has undergone review. Extensions should concern responses to reviewer comments and the addition of further relevant details and relevant clarification, but not entirely new, unreviewed content. The Organizing Committee reserves the final right to approve a manuscript for inclusion in the archived proceedings or the workshop extended abstract collection.

If you have any issues in turning your manuscript into the final format as specified in the templates, please do not hesitate to contact the organizers at: computel.workshop@gmail.com.
