The Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL) is the primary international organization for computational linguistics and natural language processing. It also is one of the primary application areas for researchers in machine learning and artificial intelligence. The proceedings of its annual meeting provide the foundation of the field; it is the most cited and most respected publication in computational linguistics. Thus, it is also the most important gathering of researchers in computational linguistics and natural language processing. ACL has a twenty-year history of including a Student Research Workshop, which helps create a new generation of researchers with a more thorough understanding of their field, with connections and collaborations across institutions, and with innovative and exciting research programs. This contributes to America's pool of researchers with the needed scientific and engineering knowledge and skills. The workshop encourages a spirit of collaborative research and builds a supportive environment for a new generation of computational linguists. To this end, the grant will subsidize travel, registration and accommodation expenses for student participants and organizers traveling from the US to the ACL in Beijing.The student research workshop will be a part of the 2015 meeting of the ACL held in Beijing, China from July 27 to July 29. The workshop will solicit submissions in two categories: (1) thesis proposals for advanced students who have decided on a thesis topic and wish to receive feedback and (2) research papers describing completed work or work in progress with significant preliminary results. Each accepted paper will be assigned an established research mentor who will meet with the student during the conference to provide individual feedback. Both paper types will be presented in the poster session of the main conference. The Student Research Workshop enriches the intellectual life of the participating students. Each student is mentored by an experienced researcher; this not only shapes the student's specific project but helps build the student's awareness of the field. The students gain exposure by presenting their work earlier than they would otherwise (i.e., in a form not yet ready for the main conference). This is particularly valuable for researchers from smaller institutions and undergraduate students. The student organizers also benefit from the organization of the workshop, gaining experience with the full process from soliciting reviewers, to managing the review process, producing the proceedings, and running the event. They also build connections with the senior researchers who participate as mentors in the event. This grant will subsidize the travel, conference registration and lodging for both student participants and student organizers.

计算语言学协会（ACL）是计算语言学和自然语言处理的主要国际组织。 它也是机器学习和人工智能研究人员的主要应用领域之一。 它的年度会议记录提供了该领域的基础;它是计算语言学中引用最多和最受尊敬的出版物。 因此，它也是计算语言学和自然语言处理研究人员最重要的聚会。 ACL拥有20年的历史，包括学生研究研讨会，这有助于创造新一代的研究人员，他们对自己的领域有更深入的了解，跨机构的联系和合作，以及创新和令人兴奋的研究项目。 这有助于美国拥有所需的科学和工程知识和技能的研究人员。该研讨会鼓励合作研究的精神，并为新一代计算语言学家建立一个支持性的环境。为此，该笔赠款将资助学生参与者和组织者从美国前往北京的ACL的旅行，注册和住宿费用。学生研究研讨会将成为7月27日至7月29日在中国北京举行的ACL 2015年会议的一部分。 研讨会将征求两类意见书：（1）已决定论文主题并希望获得反馈的高级学生的论文提案，以及（2）描述已完成工作或正在进行的工作的研究论文，具有重要的初步成果。 每一篇被接受的论文将被分配一个既定的研究导师谁将在会议期间与学生见面，提供个人反馈。 这两种类型的论文将在主要会议的海报会议上展示。 学生研究工作坊丰富了参与学生的智力生活。 每个学生都由一位经验丰富的研究人员指导;这不仅塑造了学生的具体项目，而且有助于建立学生对该领域的认识。 学生们通过提前展示他们的作品来获得曝光率（即，形式尚未为主要会议准备好）。 这对于来自较小机构的研究人员和本科生特别有价值。学生组织者也从研讨会的组织中受益，从征求评审员到管理评审过程，制作会议记录和运行活动的全过程获得经验。 他们还与作为导师参加活动的高级研究人员建立联系。 这笔赠款将资助学生与会者和学生组织者的旅费、会议登记费和住宿费。
