Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Special Issue “Machine learning and Natural Language Processing (ML & NLP)” is dedicated to the modelization of predictive tasks and classification tasks on different types of texts.
The Special Issue is concerned with textmining and natural language processing, which comprises, among other things:
- Ontology, embeddings (static), transformers (contextual embeddings), NER (named entities recognition), text classification, text generation (GAN), text summarization, word clustering, sentiment analysis, pattern recognition, tagging/annotations, document summarization, entity extraction, etc.
The Special Issue is dedicated to the modelization (statistical models) applied to texts, such as supervised and non-supervised models, and algorithms that help to identify patterns in texts.
A special focus could be placed on explainable artificial intelligence (XAI), i.e., neural networks applied to texts in order to determine words and sentences that contribute to the prediction/classification made by the neural network.
Applications to all kinds of texts is welcome, and in this respect many fields may be covered: health, biomedical research, law, jurimetrics, economics, finance, etc.
This research is funded by the French National Research Agency: ANR LAWBOT ANR-20-CE38-0013.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Stats is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
