1. Foreword to the ALTNLP 2022 Proceedings
The International Conference on Agglutinative Language Technologies as a challenge of Natural
Language Processing (ALTNLP) has established itself as a multidisciplinary conference in
natural language processing and machine learning along with, Computational Optimization.
ALTNLP provides an international online forum for the presentation of original multidisciplinary
research results as well as a platform for the exchange and dissemination of innovative and
practical development. ALTNLP aims to explore and discuss modern issues and approaches
of natural language processing and machine learning to agglutinative languages and other
weakly formalized languages. ALTNLP’s main objective is to provide an opportunity for leading
academic scientists, researchers, engineers, scholars and other professionals from all over the
world to contribute to the development of these fields and exchange new ideas as well as research
outcomes in related fields, in turn, establishing lasting partnerships for future collaboration. The
2022 was the first edition of the conference/workshop, this time only in online edition although
the ALTNLP aims to establish itself as a direct access platform for exchange of research ideas.
   There were 27 papers submitted for peer-review to this workshop. Out of these, 18 papers
were accepted for this volume, 16 as regular papers and 2 as short papers. We were happy to
receive submissions from all across the globe and one of the sweet problems we had to take
into account was the vast difference among local time-zones of the accepted authors.
