Message from the Program Chairs
Welcome to the Joint Conference of the 59th Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational
Linguistics and the 11th International Joint Conference on Natural Language Processing (ACL-IJCNLP
2021)! ACL-IJCNLP 2021 has a special historical significance as this is a particularly exciting period:
our field has grown dramatically, NLP research is now ubiquitous in products, and the barrier to entry to
the field has lowered considerably. Like ACL 2020, ACL-IJCNLP 2021 is held as a virtual conference
again due to the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic which has lasted for more than one year. We are very
grateful for all of your support and contributions during this difficult time, which make this conference
special and memorable.
Abstract and Full-paper Submissions: To synchronize with NAACL 2021, our conference’s review
cycle was about three weeks shorter than that of ACL 2020. To make the short review cycle work, we
introduced an abstract submission step, which required authors to submit an abstract by Jan 25, 2021,
one week before the full-paper submission deadline on Feb 1, 2021. This extra step gave NAACL 2021
authors an opportunity to withdraw their papers from NAACL 2021 and submit them to ACL-IJCNLP
2021 based on feedback from NAACL 2021’s rebuttal period. In total, we received 4, 266 abstract
submissions and 3, 350 full paper submissions.
Tracks: The submissions were assigned to one of 24 topic tracks. The tracks were similar to those used
in previous conferences but with a few changes:
1. Based on the number of submissions in previous conferences, we followed NAACL 2021 and
combined two tracks (“Semantics: Sentence Level” and “Semantics: Textual Inference and Other
Areas of Semantics”) into a single track “Semantics: Sentence-level Semantics, Textual Inference
and Other areas”.
2. To accommodate a wider and more diverse area, we changed the name of the “Computational
Social Science and Social Media” track to “Computational Social Science and Cultural Analytics”.
3. Following NAACL 2021, we combined the “Theory and Formalism” with the “Cognitive
Modeling and Psycholinguistics” areas into “Linguistic theories, Cognitive Modeling and
Psycholinguistics”. This track is designed to encourage submissions targeted to theoretical
underpinning of NLP models which had little/small presence in the past ACL conferences.
4. We introduced a new theme: “NLP for Social Good (NLP4SG)”. The application of AI to provide
positive social impact has been an important topic in recent years. However, to date, this has not
been a topic highlighted at the ACL main conference. This track is designed to invite submissions
that can provide insights for the ACL-IJCNLP community on the topic of NLP for Social Good as
well as how NLP could potentially cause or be used for social harm.
Program Committee: To meet the reviewer demands of a growing conference without compromising
review quality, we started recruiting Senior Area Chairs (SACs) and Area Chairs in early fall 2020. Then
we initiated a large-scale reviewer recruiting effort in Nov 2020. We compiled a big list of reviewers from
previous conferences, and sent out invitations to more than 9, 000 candidates, asking the ones who were
willing to serve to fill out a Microsoft reviewer form. About 4, 400 of the invitees filled out the form. We
then worked with SACs and ACs in selecting reviewers and assigning them to appropriate tracks. The
whole process of forming the program committee was very complex and took several months to complete
and, at the end, we have the largest ever program committee in the history of ACL with 60 SACs, 323
ACs, and 3, 685 primary reviewers.
v
Reviewer Mentoring Program: Review quality is crucial for the success of a large conference like
ACL. Thus, it is of central importance for our community to mentor and train new reviewers in order to
keep up with the community’s rapid growth, both in terms of submissions and in terms of new members
of the community. Therefore, this year we continued the reviewer mentoring program launched with
ACL 2020. Ultimately, the goal of this program is to provide long-needed mentoring to new reviewers.
We formed a reviewer mentoring committee. Collaborating with them and SACs, we paired Area Chairs
(mentors) with first-time ACL reviewers (mentees, often Ph.D. students or junior researchers) during
the paper assignment process. The mentees would submit reviews early for the mentors to provide
feedback, and the mentees would then revise their reviews based on the feedback. In addition, to help
all the reviewers, the reviewer mentoring committee created several videos including the presentation
of the mentoring program, a general reviewing tutorial, information about the review form used for this
conference, and guidelines on how to consider ethical issues reproducibility in submissions.
Ethical review: The ethical impact and potential applications of our research should be an important
consideration for research design, and as artificial intelligence is becoming more mainstream, these issues
are increasingly pertinent. To address the potential ethical concerns, we allowed authors to include
a broader impact statement or other discussion of ethics in the paper, which does not count towards
the page limit. We formed an Ethics Advisory Committee (EAC) with three co-chairs and 57 EAC
reviewers. During the review process, reviewers were asked to flag submissions with ethical concerns.
The EAC then reviewed all the flagged papers to determine whether the papers should be (a) accepted
as is, (b) conditional accepted (with specification of what must be addressed in the camera-ready version
in order for the condition to be removed), or (c) rejected on ethical grounds (with explanation of the
reject decision). Based on their decisions and the SAC recommendations, we made the accept/reject
decisions and sent out acceptance notifications on May 6, 2021. The whole process was explained in a
blog posted to the conference website on May 10, 2021. The camera-ready version of the conditionally
accepted papers were checked by the EAC again. The EAC informed us that all these papers had made
satisfactory revisions and thus we removed the condition on the papers. The whole process was very
complex, and we were grateful for the hard work of the EAC and the authors.
Acceptance to Main Conference: After the review process, out of the 3, 350 full submissions, 710
papers (139 short, 571 long) were accepted into the main conference. With an acceptance rate of 21.2%,
ACL-IJCNLP 2021 continues to be a highly competitive conference. Based on the nominations from
Senior Area Chairs, we selected 28 papers as candidates for the Best Paper awards. We formed a Best
Paper Award Committee, who went over all the candidates and selected one best paper, one best theme
paper and six outstanding papers.
Findings: To continue the success of Findings at EMNLP 2020, we decided to introduce Findings
papers, which are papers that are not accepted for publication in the main conference, but nonetheless
have been assessed by the Program Committee as solid work with sufficient substance, quality and
novelty. Out of the 3, 350 full submissions, 493 papers were invited to be included in the Findings.
Thirty-six papers declined the offer, leading to 457 papers (118 short and 339 long) to be published in the
Findings of ACL: ACL-IJCNLP 2021. To increase the visibility of the Finding papers, the authors of such
papers can choose to make a 3-minute video to be included in the virtual conference site. Our workshop
chairs also helped to pair Findings papers with ACL-IJCNLP 2021 workshops for the possibility of
Finding papers to be presented at those workshops.
TACL and CL papers: Continuing the tradition, ACL-IJCNLP 2021 will also feature 27 papers that
were published at Transactions of the Association for Computational Linguistics (TACL) and 5 papers
from the journal of Computational Linguistics (CL).
Keynote speakers: Another highlight of our program is three exciting keynote talks, given by Prof.
Christopher Potts (Stanford University), Prof. Helen Meng (Chinese University of Hong Kong), and Dr.
Alejandrina Cristia (École Normale Supérieure).

ACL-IJCNLP 2021 would not be possible without the support from the community. There are many
people we would like to thank for their significant contributions! First, we would like to thank our
Program Committee, whose names are included in the Program Committee pages in the proceedings:
• Our awesome 60 Senior Area Chairs who were instrumental in every aspect of the review process
(e.g., AC/reviewer selection, paper assignment, recommendation for paper acceptance, nomination
of best papers and outstanding reviewers). For many of them, the scope of their responsibilities was
equivalent to chairing a small conference. The 323 Area Chairs who led paper review discussions,
wrote meta-reviews, and mentored junior reviewers. In addition, they have helped SACs with
reviewer selection, paper assignment, and many other tasks.
• Our 3, 685 primary reviewers and 262 secondary reviewers who provided valuable feedback
to the authors. Special thanks to those who stepped in at the last minute to serve as emergency
reviewers.
Second, we would like to thank many ACL-IJCNLP 2021 committees that we have worked with,
including:
• Our Best Paper Selection Committee, Bonnie Webber, Tim Baldwin and Ellen Riloff for selecting
best papers and outstanding papers under a very tight schedule.
• Our Ethics Advisory Committee, chaired by Min-Yen Kan, Malvina Nissim, and Xanda
Schofield, for their hard work to ensure that all the accepted papers have addressed the ethical
issues appropriately.
• Our Reviewer Mentoring Committee, Jing Huang, Antoine Bosselut and Christophe Gravier, for
preparing mentoring materials and providing review support to first-time reviewers.
• Our Publication Co-Chairs, Jing-Shin Chang, Yuki Arase, and Yvette Graham, for their
tremendous effort in making the proceedings.
• Our Social Media Committee, chaired by Luciana Benotti, Lidong Bing, Zhumin Chen, Mark
Seligman, and Rachele Sprugnoli, for effectively communicating conference updates and other
urgent information on social media platforms.
• The Workshop Chairs, Kentaro Inui and Michael Strube, for connecting Findings paper authors
with individual workshops for possible presentations.
• The Website & Conference App Chairs, Chutima Beokhaimook and Witchaworn Mankhong, for
making numerous updates to the conference website.
Third, we would like to thank many people who help us with various software used for the conference:
• Rich Gerber at SoftConf, who is always quick to respond to our emails and resolve difficulties we
encountered with the START system.
• C. M. Downey at the University of Washington, who helped us to extend and run the external paper
assignment system developed by Graham Neubig.
• Caterina Lacerra and Rocco Tripodi at the Sapienza University of Rome, who helped us in the
creation of internal spreadsheets and processing scripts.
• The whole Underline team (Sol Rosenberg, Fun Lee, Jordan Young, Daniel Luise) who created a
virtual site for the conference.
vii
As Program chairs, we were in charge of several dozen tasks and many of them were new to us. We
would not be able to complete the tasks without the advice from our colleagues, including:
• Our General Chair Chengqing Zong, who has been very supportive throughout the whole process,
giving us the flexibility to innovate while providing an invaluable sounding board.
• The Program Co-Chairs of ACL 2020, Joyce Chai, Natalie Schluter and Joel Tetreault; the
Program Co-Chairs of EMNLP 2020, Trevor Cohn, Yulan He and Yang Liu; the Program
Co-Chairs of NAACL 2021, Anna Rumshisky, Luke Zettlemoyer and Dilek Hakkani-Tur, for
generously sharing their experience, documentation, and advice in organizing ACL conferences
and for answering our questions, often on short notice.
• ACL Executive Committee, especially Rada Mihalcea (the ACL President) and Hinrich Schütze
(the ACL Past President), Shiqi Zhao (Secretary), Priscilla Rasmussen (Business Manager),
Nitin Madnani (Member-at-large), to help us sort through various issues.
• TACL Editors-in-Chief Ani Nenkova and Brian Roark, TACL Editorial Assistant Cindy
Robinson, and CL Editor-in-Chief Hwee Tou Ng for coordinating TACL and CL presentations at
the conference.
We would also like to thank all the authors (8, 757 in total) who submitted their work to the conference.
Although we were only able to accept a small percentage of the submissions, your hard work makes this
conference exciting and our community strong.
Last, but not least, we thank our students, interns, postdocs, colleagues, and families for being so
understanding and supportive when we were swamped by countless conference deadlines and meetings.
Our deepest gratitude is to all of you. We hope you will enjoy the conference.

Keynote Talk: Advancing Technological Equity in Speech and
Language Processing
Helen Meng
The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK)
Abstract: Accelerating advances in AI and deep neural networks have powered the proliferation of
speech and language technologies in applications such as virtual assistants, smart speakers, reading
machines, etc. The technologies have performed impressively well, achieving human parity in speech
recognition accuracies and speech synthesis naturalness. As these technologies continue to permeate
our daily lives, they need to support diverse users and usage contexts with inputs that deviate from the
mainstream. Examples include non-native speakers, code-switching, speech carrying myriad emotions
and styles, and speakers with impairments and disorders. Under such contexts, existing technologies
often suffer performance degradations and fail to fulfill the needs of the users. The crux of the problem
lies in data scarcity and data sparsity, which are exacerbated by high data variability.
This talk presents an overview of some of the approaches we have used to address the challenges of data
shortage, positioned at various stages along the processing pipeline. They include: data augmentation
based on speech signal perturbations, use of pre-trained representations, learning speech representation
disentanglement, knowledge distillation architectures, meta-learned model re-initialization, as well as
adversarially trained models. The effectiveness of these approaches are demonstrated through a variety
of applications, including accented speech recognition, dysarthric speech recognition, code-switched
speech synthesis, disordered speech reconstruction, one-shot voice conversion and exemplar-based
emotive speech synthesis. These efforts strive to develop speech and language technologies that can
gracefully adapt and accommodate a diversity of user needs and usage contexts, in order to achieve
technological equity in our society.

Keynote Talk: Learning and Processing Language from Wearables:
Opportunities and Challenges
Alejandrina Cristia
Laboratoire de Sciences Cognitives et de Psycholinguistique,
Département d’études cognitives, ENS, EHESS, CNRS, PSL University
Abstract: Recent years have seen tremendous improvement in the ease with which we can collect
naturalistic language samples via devices worn over long periods of time. These allow unprecedented
access to ego-centered experiences in language perceived and produced, including by young children.
For example, in a newly-formed consortium, we pulled together over 40k hours of audio, collected from
1, 001 children growing up in industrialized or hunter-horticulturalist populations, located in one of 12
countries. Such data are interesting for many purposes, including as 1. fodder for unsupervised language
learning models aimed at mimicking what the child does; 2. indices of early language development
that can be used to assess the impact of behavioral and pharmacological interventions; and 3. samples
of the natural use of language(s) in low-resource and multilingual settings. The technology allowing to
carve out interesting information from these large datasets, however, is lagging behind – but this may
not be such a bad thing after all, since the ethical, technical, and legal handling of such data also need
some work to increase the chances that the net impact of research based on this technique is positive.
In this talk, I draw from cutting-edge research building on long-form recordings from wearables and a
framework for doing the most good we can (effective altruism) to highlight surprising findings in early
language acquisition, and delineate key priorities for future work.
Bio: Alejandrina Cristia is a senior researcher at the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique
(CNRS), leader of the Language Acquisition Across Cultures team, and director of the Laboratoire
de Sciences Cognitives et Psycholinguistique (LSCP) cohosted by the Ecole Normale Supérieure,
EHESS, and PSL. In 2021, she is an invited researcher in the Foundations of Learning Program
of the Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab (J-PAL), and a guest researcher at the Max Planck
Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology. Her long-term aim is to answer the following questions:
What are the linguistic representations that infants and adults have? Why and how are they formed?
How may learnability biases shape the world’s languages? To answer these questions, she combines
multiple methodologies including spoken corpora analyses, behavioral studies, neuroimaging (NIRS),
and computational modeling. This interdisciplinary approach has resulted in over 100 publications in
pscyhology, linguistics, and development journals as well as IEEE and similar conferences. With an
interest in cumulative, collaborative, and transparent science, she contributed to the creation of the
first meta-meta-analysis platform (metalab.stanford.edu) and several international networks, including
saliently the LangVIEW consortium that is leading /L+/, the First truly global summer/winter school
on language acquisition.1 She received the 2017 John S. McDonnell Scholar Award in Understanding
Human Cognition, the 2020 Médaille de Bronze CNRS Section Linguistique, and an ERC Consolidator
Award (2021-2026) for the ExELang2 project.

Keynote Talk: Reliable Characterizations of NLP Systems
as a Social Responsibility
Christopher Potts
Stanford University
Abstract: This is an incredible moment for NLP. We all routinely work with models whose capabilities
would have seemed like science fiction just two decades ago, powerful organizations eagerly await our
latest results, and NLP technologies are playing an increasingly large role in shaping our society. As
a result, all of us in the NLP community are likely to participate in research that will contribute (to
varying degrees and perhaps only indirectly) to technologies that will impact many people’s lives, with
both positive and negative consequences – for example, technologies that broaden accessibility, enhance
creative self-expression, heighten surveillance, and create propaganda. What can we do to fulfill the
social responsibility that this brings? As a (very) partial answer to this question, I will review a number
of important recent developments, spanning many research groups, concerning dataset creation, model
introspection, and system assessment. Taken together, these ideas can help us more reliably characterize
how NLP systems will behave, and more reliably communicate this information to a wider range of
potential users. In this way, they can help us meet our obligations to the people whose lives are impacted
by the results of our research.
Bio: Christopher Potts is Professor and Chair of Linguistics and Professor (by courtesy) of Computer
Science at Stanford, and a faculty member in the Stanford NLP Group and the Stanford AI Lab. His
group uses computational methods to explore how emotion is expressed in language and how linguistic
production and interpretation are influenced by the context of utterance. This research combines methods
from linguistics, cognitive psychology, and computer science, in the service of both scientific discovery
and technology development. He was previously Chief Scientist at Roam Analytics, a start-up focused
on applying NLP in healthcare and the life sciences (now Parexel AI Labs). He is a long-time Action
Editor at TACL, a frequent Area Chair at ACL conferences, and currently an Ethics Committee co-chair
for EMNLP 2021.
