The eighteenth International Conference on Natural Language Processing
(ICON-2021) will be held at NIT Silchar, India during December 16-19, 2021.
The ICON Conference series is a forum for promoting interaction among
researchers in the field of Natural Language Processing (NLP) and
Computational linguistics (CL) in India and abroad. The main conference is
on December 17-18, 2021. This will be preceded by one day of pre-conference
tutorials on December 16, 2021 and one day of post conference workshops on
December 19, 2021.

Papers in ICON proceedings will be indexed in ACL Anthology. ACL Anthology
is a digital archive of research papers in Computational Linguistics for
major international conferences under Association for Computational
Linguistics (ACL), which is one of the most well-known associations for NLP
and CL.

content, description of the proposers and their qualifications relating to
the tutorial/workshop content.


4. *CALL FOR DOCTORAL CONSORTIUM *



The ICON organising Committee is pleased to call for papers for the 3rd
Doctoral Consortium. This event extends an opportunity for doctoral
candidates to present and discuss their research with a panel of experts.
The discussion would include feedback on the evolution and progress of
their research. It also helps them to identify the roadmap and additional
studies, which could help refine the shape of their doctoral thesis.

The doctoral consortium will be a one-day or half day event being organised
on December 16, 2021, as part of the ICON-2021 conference at the National
Institute of Technology Silchar (NIT Silchar). The applicants are required
to submit a two-page extended abstract of their PhD research work. The
shortlisted candidates would be invited to the consortium where they are
required to present a summary of their research. Each candidate will be
given 30 minutes for the presentation, which will be followed by a
discussion of 15 minutes, led by a panel of experts. Prospective doctoral
students from language technologies related disciplines are invited to
apply. The selection of participants will be based on the submitted
abstracts.

*Guidelines*

The invitation is open to all participants of ICON 2021. The applicants are
required to submit an extended two-page abstract on their ongoing doctoral
research. The submission can be extended to a maximum of two pages
including all text, figures and tables, plus an additional third page
exclusively for references. The submissions must follow the ICON template
provided in the author's kit.The abstracts may incorporate published and
in-progress work from the authors. Submissions are expected to present a
fair picture of the research undertaken towards the thesis. Participants
are advised to refrain from submitting a shorter version of their
conference papers. Submissions must have the participant as the sole
author. Acknowledgements to their supervisors, supporting agencies/bodies,
and contributors to the work, can be made in a separate section.


The submission must highlight the following: The motivation of the
research; Key issues identified/addressed; Major contributions;
Methodologies, Experiments; Discussion of results; Future plans and Roadmap
for the thesis.
