国际计算语言学协会 (ACL，The Association for Computational Linguistics)，是世界上影响力最大、最具活力的国际学术组织之一，其会员遍布世界各地。

国际计算语言学协会（ACL）第 55 届年会将在加拿大温哥华举行。这一次会议将于 2017 年 7 月 30 日至 8 月 4 日在温哥华市中心的威斯汀湾海岸酒店（Westin Bayshore Hotel）举办。

ACL 2017 除了主要会议之外，还如同其他顶级会议一样包含研讨会、专题报告、研习会和演示等。ACL 会议是计算语言学领域的首要会议，广泛涉及自然语言的计算方法及其各类研究领域。

下面列出了 ACL 2017 所接收的长篇论文、短篇论文和软件展示，所有论文或展示采取分类无序排列。

恭喜作者们！

在我们详细了解这些论文和作者之前，可以通过可视化看一看 ACL 2017 接收论文的标题特点与分布。

该可视化的项目地址：

首先如下图所示，我们可以了解短篇论文和长篇论文标题的不同之处。端到端建模、联合建模、对抗性学习和阅读理解在长篇论文标题中较为普遍。案例研究、社交媒体和多语言分析在短篇论文中更为流行。学习、神经和翻译在两组论文中都很常见。

下图展示了 TACL 与长篇论文的区别。有趣的是没有 TACL 使用「网络」这一单词，但长篇论文很多都使用了。

下面几张可视化图表展示了 ACL 2017 接收论文的一些描述性统计学数据，并能了解论文类别的变化。

其中我们可以发现绝大多数论文都是长篇论文。机器翻译、语义学和总结性的更多是长篇论文，而机器学习、社交媒体和多学科论文更多是短篇论文。

下面是具体的 ACL 2017 接收论文和软件展示等名单（由于篇幅限制，以下只展示了部分接收的长篇论文，完整名单请点击「阅读原文」查阅）。
