Slovenskočeský NLP workshop (SloNLP 2019)
5th International Workshop


19th Conference on Information Technologies – Applications and Theory
Hotel Zornička, Donovaly, Slovakia, September 20–24, 2019.


Preface

   SloNLP is a workshop focused on Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Computa-
tional Linguistics. Its primary aim is to promote cooperation among NLP researchers in
Slovakia and the Czech Republic. The topics of the workshop include automatic speech
recognition, automatic natural language analysis and generation (morphology, syntax,
semantics, etc.), dialogue systems, machine translation, information retrieval, practical
applications of NLP technologies, and other topics of computational linguistics.
   To further encourage cooperation and sharing of information among NLP researchers
in Slovakia and Czechia, we offer Open session, an opportunity for anyone to present his
work, without writing a paper.
   As invited speakers, we welcome people that apply NLP in a private sector to contrast
with mainly academic participants. This year, Lukáš Vrábel presents his experiences from
Central Europe AI startup studio.
   This year, 5 papers are accepted for a poster presentation and there is one participant
of the Open Session.
