Scope
The 7th International Conference on NLP & Information Retrieval (NLPI 2026) invites high quality research contributions from academia, industry, and government. NLPI has established itself as a global forum for presenting cutting edge advances in natural language processing, information retrieval, and the rapidly evolving landscape of AI driven language technologies.
As NLP and IR continue to transform communication, knowledge access, and intelligent systems, NLPI 2026 aims to bring together researchers, practitioners, and innovators to exchange ideas, explore emerging challenges, and shape the future of language centric AI. We welcome original, unpublished work that advances theory, algorithms, systems, and applications. All submissions will undergo rigorous peer review, and accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings.
NLPI 2026 covers a broad range of topics in NLP, IR, and AI driven language technologies. We especially encourage submissions that address modern challenges such as large language models, retrieval augmented generation, multimodal systems, and responsible AI.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following
Core NLP Tasks & Linguistic Foundations
- Tokenization, POS tagging, chunking, and shallow parsing
- Parsing, grammatical formalisms, and syntactic analysis
