<>Call for papers

We would like to inform you that the call for papers for the issue 62 of the journal Procesamiento del Lenguaje Natural is open and available at SEPLN website.

Introduction

The aim of the journal Procesamiento del Lenguaje Natural is to provide a forum for the publication of scientific-technical articles in the field of Natural Language Processing (NLP), for both the national and international scientific community. The articles must be unpublished and cannot be simultaneously submitted for publication in other journals or conference proceedings. The journal also aims to promote the development of areas related to NLP, disseminate research carried out, identify future guidelines for basic research, and present software applications in this field. Every year the Sociedad Española de Procesamiento del Lenguaje Natural (SEPLN) (Spanish Society for the Natural Language Processing) publishes two issues of the journal, including original articles, presentations of R&D projects, book reviews and summaries of PhD theses.

The scientific quality of the Journal is supported by the index SNIP (Source Normalized Impact per Paper) with 0,39 points in 2017, and by the index SJR (SCImago Journal Rankings) with 0.21 in 2017. Likewise, the Journal has been added to the Emerging Sources Citation Index by Thomson.

The print edition of the journal is distributed freely to the SEPLN members, but an open access journal is also freely available to all online readers.
