🎉 Review time for the CL Journal: "Computational Linguistics maintains a rigorous yet efficient editorial process. As of 2025, the average time to first decision is 16.5 days (including desk rejections) and 55.0 days (excluding desk rejections)." So it is less than 2 months!

❓Without looking at the CL journal website, can you guess how long does it take now for a submission to our journal to be reviewed?

For those interested in grammars, esp. weak generative capacity, this squib has some novel insights. It demonstrates that the proofs given in prominent and well-established weak generative capacity arguments for natural language are flawed: https://t.co/DBmJ2iCmmj #CLJournal #NLP

Squibs have their own editor in charge of them. The current editor is Prof. Michael White (https://t.co/4ueq5IiG7U) #CLJournal #NLProc (3/3)

[Computational Linguistics Journal @CompLingJournal]

Squibs should possess at least one of the following attributes: (1) unexpectedness; (2) genuine novelty; and (3) being targeted to a large segment of our readership. #CLJournal #NLProc (2/3)

CL journal has long accepted some articles as "squib". In absolute terms, an squib is "A short, witty, or satirical piece of writing". That is almost what we expect Squibs is reserved for very short articles that constitute more than programmatic versions of regular papers.(1/3)

Have you wondered if personally identifiable information removal techniques truly protect privacy in real-world scenarios? The authors of this article suspect that reported success of these attacks is largely overestimated. Read what they find here: https://t.co/m12neeqGsu

Real-world tasks often involve complex, multi-step instructions that remain challenging for current NLP systems. This article provides a comprehensive survey that systematically analyses the landscape of complex instruction understanding & processing: https://t.co/smPIB4BZBZ

How do LLMs compare against other semantic measure algorithms in assessing semantic relation (SR) strength? Are LLMs’ evaluations of SRs influenced by exposure to datasets during training? Answers in: https://t.co/D5uyXTYLiX #CLJournal

Mis-and disinformation continue to propagate online & cause significant harm due to the rapid evolution of such content. Out-of-Distribution generalisation datasets can be very difficult to build & this is the major focus of this paper:https://t.co/AqPDnIEdxe #CLJournal @verhivo

Have you noticed that preference datasets in reinforcement learning/DPO are not fully utilised? This article proposes a framework called Vote-based Preference Optimisation to address that: https://t.co/gGmnSSNxoO #NLProc #CLjournal

Do you know what Multimodal OXYmorons are? If you're curious, read this research, which introduces this concept by constructing and communicating meaning through the interplay of multiple modalities: https://t.co/mXZbqDghte #CLjournal #NLProc @elaiza1996 @FraMasini_ @FersiniE
