    Introduction

    Computational Linguistics UK (CLUK) aims to provide a forum for the
    Computational Linguistics community in the UK. The Annual CLUK Colloquium
    offers PhD students in Natural Language Processing and related disciplines
    an opportunity to present and discuss their work with members of the wider
    research community. The colloquium is organised as a mini-conference.
    Presentations are held in conference-style sessions, to which senior
    established researchers are invited, and there will be opportunities for
    general discussion. Papers on any topic within the area of Computational
    Linguistics, NLP and Language Engineering are welcome.
