Proceedings of the Third Workshop on Computational Approaches to Linguistic Code-Switching

Another component of the workshop is the First Shared Task on Named Entity Recognition (NER) of CS Data. The shared task focused on social media and included two language pairs: Modern Standard Arabic-Dialectal Arabic and English-Spanish. We had a total of 9 participants from which we received 8 submissions on English-Spanish and 6 submissions on Modern Standard Arabic-Dialectal Arabic. We received papers from all these submissions. All shared task systems will be presented during the workshop poster session and two of them will also present a talk. We would like to thank all authors who submitted their contributions to this workshop and all shared task participants for taking on the challenge of NER in code-switched data. We also thank the program committee members for their help in providing meaningful reviews. Lastly,
