The SIGSEM board

The current board is composed of:

  • Johan Bos (President);
  • Katrin Erk (Secretary);
  • Marco Baroni (Information Officer);
  • Gemma Boleda (Information Officer);
  • Alexander Koller (Information Officer);
  • Matthew Purver (Information Officer).

Some of contact addresses have changed -- please look here for the latest updates.

Past Elections

Elections were held in October 2013, as planned. Three new information officiers joined the board.

Members

The current SIGSEM membership counts 876 members. We have started cleaning up the database with members, by removing registered members whose email addresses aren't valid anymore after a couple of email bounces, of people who we can't reach otherwise. There is a reasonably active, moderated mailinglist. See SIGSEM.

Major SIGSEM Events: IWCS and *SEM

The major SIGSEM/SIGLEX event in 2014 will be *SEM-2014, which will take place in Dublin, collocated with COLING (formally organized as a two-day COLING workshop). *SEM-2013 received 90 submissions of which 14 long and 8 short were accepted (acceptance rate: 24%). IWCS-2015 will take place at Queen Mary University of London.
