Policies worth checking twice
- Submissions must be from current LTI students.
- Prior acceptance or presentation at other conferences is not necessary.
- Papers should follow official ACL style templates, but original styles from non-ACL conferences (e.g., ICML, NeurIPS) are acceptable.
- All accepted papers are encouraged to include a poster presentation.
- Posters may be in landscape or portrait orientation; special arrangements can be made for wide posters or demos.
