International Conference on Computational Linguistics and Intelligent Text Processing
CICLing (International Conference on Computational Linguistics and Intelligent Text Processing; before 2017 known under the name International Conference on Intelligent Text Processing and Computational Linguistics) is an annual conference on computational linguistics (CL) and natural language processing (NLP). The first CICLing conference was held in 2000 in Mexico City. The conference is attended by one to two hundred of NLP and CL researchers and students every year. As of 2017, it is ranked within top 20 sources (conferences and journals) on computational linguistics by Google Scholar.[1] Past CICLing conferences have been held in Mexico, Korea, Israel, Romania, Japan, India, Greece, Nepal, Egypt, Turkey, Hungary, and Vietnam; the 2019 event was held in France.

Overview
CICLing is a series of annual international conferences devoted to computational linguistics (CL), natural language processing (NLP), human language technologies (HLT), natural-language human-computer interaction (HCI), as well as speech processing and speech recognition (SR).
Their topics of interest include, but are not limited to: text processing, computational morphology, tagging, stemming, syntactic analysis, parsing and shallow parsing, chunking, recognizing textual entailment, ambiguity resolution, semantic analysis, pragmatics, lexicon, lexical resources, dictionaries and machine-readable dictionaries (MRD), grammar, anaphora resolution, word sense disambiguation (WSD), machine translation (MT), information retrieval (IR), information extraction (IE), document handling, document classification and text classification, text summarization, text mining (TM), opinion mining, sentiment analysis, plagiarism detection, and spell checking (spelling).
CICLing series was founded in 2000 by Alexander Gelbukh.[2] The acronym "CICLing" refers to "Conference on Intelligent text processing and Computational Linguistics", the name used before 2017.[2]
Almost all CICLing events have been endorsed by the Association for Computational Linguistics.
Unlike some other conferences on computational linguistics and natural language processing, such as those run by the Association for Computational Linguistics, CICLing does not release its main proceedings as Open Access, publishing them instead with Springer; however, most of its complementary proceedings, published as special issues of journals, are released as Open Access; in addition, Springer allows the authors to make their papers available via their own webpages.
