This document is the preface of the Computational Linguistics Workshop of the 7th International Conference on Computational Linguistics and Intelligent Systems (CoLInS 2023), April 20-21, 2023, held in Kharkiv, Ukraine. The main purpose of the Computational Linguistics Workshop is a discussion of the recent research results in all areas of Technology for Natural Language Processing and Intelligent Systems Development. The conference is soliciting literature review, survey and research papers comments including, whilst not limited to, the following areas of interest: 1.1. Natural Language Processing • Machine translation; • Text summarization; • Named-entity recognition; • Information retrieval; • Text classification; • Sentiment analysis; • Automated speech recognition; • Question answering system; • Topic modeling; • Text generation; • Text understanding; • Text simplification; • Spam filtering technology; • Error correction; • Chatbots and conversational agents. • Voice cloning, voice encoders, voice readers, voice output communication aids. 1.2. Corpus Technologies, Ontologies and Computer Lexicography • Corpus creation; • Corpus annotation; • Corpus-based translation; • Collocation identification and extraction;
• Thesauri, ontologies, ontology building; • Ontology models and ontological graphs; • Lexicographic systems. • Digital learner’s dictionaries; • General and special purpose digital dictionaries; • Digital dictionary-based research; • Virtual lexicographic laboratories; • Dictionary-writing systems; 1.3. Computer-Based Discourse Analysis and Social Media Analysis • Discourse organization; • Critical discourse analysis; • Sarcasm detection; • Opinion mining and emotion detection; • Essay grading; • Unambiguity / wordplay identification; • Computer-mediated communication; • Digital multimodal text creation; • Statistical text analysis; • Conceptualization; • Fake news detection; • Text authorship identification; • Good/evil character traits identification.
The language of Computational Linguistics Workshop is English.
The Computational Linguistics Workshop took the form of oral presentation by peer-reviewed individual papers. The papers were distributed among 93 external reviewers from France, Germany, The Netherlands, United States, United Kingdom, India, Moldova, Czech Republic, Poland, Bulgaria, Portugal, Serbia, Slovenia, Finland and Ukraine. The total number of reviews is 157. To take more correct decision regarding the acceptance or rejection the papers got 3-7 reviews. The peer review statistics is as follows: 23 papers (3 reviews), 7 paper (4 reviews), 3 paper (5 reviews), 4 papers (6 reviews), and 3 paper (7 reviews).
This year Organizing Committee received 69 submissions, out of which 40 were accepted for presentation as a regular papers. These papers and extended abstracts were published in this Volume II of 7th International Conference on Computational Linguistics and Intelligent Systems (CoLInS 2023) proceedings.
