Call for Abstracts - North American Research Network in Historical Sociolinguistics - Fifth Annual Meeting (NARNiHS 2023)
by Lauersdorf, Mark R. 24 Jul '22

24 Jul '22

***** Call for Abstracts ***** NARNiHS 2023 ***** North American Research Network in Historical Sociolinguistics ***** Fifth Annual Meeting Despite the recent relaxation of global pandemic travel policies, travel concerns remain for many communities as of the summer of 2022. In light of these concerns, and in response to the positive feedback we have received concerning our recent all-online events, our NARNiHS 2023 Annual Meeting will once again be taking place as a **free, entirely online event**. This presents a great opportunity for scholars in historical sociolinguistics from all over the world to participate as presenters and/or attendees without the limitations imposed by international travel. We encourage our fellow historical sociolinguists and scholars from related fields from our global scholarly community (in addition to North America) to join us online for our Fifth Annual Meeting. ==> Abstract submission deadline: Monday, 19 September 2022, 11:59 PM US Eastern Time. Please see our call for abstracts below and send us your latest work in historical sociolinguistics! ----- Call for Abstracts -----. The North American Research Network in Historical Sociolinguistics (NARNiHS) is accepting abstracts for its Fifth Annual Meeting (NARNiHS 2023), to take place Wednesday, January 4 - Sunday, January 8, 2023. Since NARNiHS is a Sister Society of the Linguistic Society of America (LSA), NARNiHS 2023 will partially overlap with the LSA 2023 Annual Meeting. The NARNiHS 2023 Annual Meeting, however, will be organized independently from the LSA Annual Meeting. ==> Deadline for receipt of abstracts: Monday, 19 September 2022, 11:59 PM US Eastern Time. * Late abstracts will not be considered *. NARNiHS welcomes abstracts in all areas of historical sociolinguistics, which is understood as the application/development of sociolinguistic theories, models, and methods for the study of historical language variation and change over time, or more broadly, the study of the interaction of language and society in historical periods and from historical perspectives. Thus, a wide range of linguistic areas, subdisciplines, and methodologies easily find their place within the field, and we encourage submission of abstracts that reflect this broad scope. Abstracts will be accepted for 20-minute presentations to be delivered "live" through an online video-conferencing platform. *** Abstracts will be evaluated on the following criteria ***. - explicit discussion of which theoretical frameworks, methodological protocols, and analytical strategies are being applied or critiqued; - sufficient (if brief) presentation of data sources and examples to allow reviewers a clear understanding of the scope and claims of the research; - clear articulation of how the research advances knowledge in the field of historical sociolinguistics. Abstracts should also be anonymized to allow for blind peer review. Failure to adhere to these criteria will increase the likelihood of non-acceptance. *** General Requirements ***. 1) Abstracts must be submitted electronically, using the following link: http://linguistlist.org/easyabs/5THnarnihs2023 . 2) Authors may submit a maximum of two abstracts: one single-author abstract and one co-authored abstract. 3) After an abstract has been submitted, no changes of author, title, or wording of the abstract, other than those due to typographical errors, are permitted. If accepted, authors will be contacted for a final version for the abstract booklet. 4) Papers must be delivered as projected in the abstract or represent bona fide developments of the same research. 5) Authors are expected to attend the conference and present their own papers. 6) Presentations will be delivered via a video-conferencing platform, most likely Zoom. Technical details and instructions regarding the platform for our NARNiHS Annual Meeting will be sent to authors in due time. 7) After acceptance, authors will be given an option to have their live presentation recorded during the meeting and archived for future online viewing. *** Abstract Format Guidelines ***. 1) Abstracts must be submitted in PDF format. 2) Abstracts must fit on one standard 8.5x11 inch page, with margins no smaller than 1 inch and a font style and size no smaller than Times New Roman 12 point. All additional content (visualizations, trees, tables, figures, captions, examples, and references) must fit on a single (1) additional page. No exceptions to these requirements are allowed. 3) Anonymize your abstract. We realize that sometimes it is not possible to attain complete anonymity, but there is a difference between "inability to anonymize completely" (due to the nature of the research) and "careless non-anonymizing" (for example: "In Jones 2021, I describe..."). In addition, be sure to anonymize your PDF file (you may do so in Adobe Acrobat Reader by clicking on "File", then "Properties", removing your name if it appears in the "Author" line of the "Description" tab, and re-saving before submitting it). Please be aware that abstract file names might not be automatically anonymized by the system; do not use your name (e.g. Smith_Abstract.pdf) when saving your abstract in PDF format, rather, use non-identifying information (e.g. HistSoc4Lyfe_NARNiHS.pdf). Your name should only appear in the online form accompanying your abstract submission. Papers that are not sufficiently anonymized wherever possible (whether in the text of the abstract or in the metadata of the digital file) risk being rejected. Contact us at NARNiHistSoc(a)gmail.com with any questions.

3rd CODI workshop: Deadline extension to July 28, 2022
by Chloé Braud 22 Jul '22

22 Jul '22

** apologies for cross-postings ** CODI, 3rd Workshop on Computational Approaches to Discourse Gyeongju, Republic of Korea ** Submission deadline: Extension to July 28, 2022 ** * Important information: The CODI workshop will be a hybrid workshop following COLING’s format. The workshop will take place on October 16-17, 2022. * Aims and scope The last ten years have seen a dramatic improvement in the ability of NLP systems to understand and produce words and sentences. This development has created a renewed interest in discourse problems as researchers move towards the processing of long-form text and conversations. There is a surge of activity in discourse parsing, coherence models, text summarization, corpora for discourse level reading comprehension, and discourse related/aided representation learning, to name a few. At this juncture, we have organized two Workshops on Computational Approaches to Discourse (CODI) at EMNLP 2020 and at EMNLP 2021 to bring together discourse experts and upcoming researchers. These workshops have catalyzed the speed and knowledge needed to solve such problems and have served as a forum for the discussion of suitable datasets and reliable evaluation methods. The previous workshops on discourse in machine translation (DiscoMT), linking lexical, sentential and discourse semantics (LSDSem), discourse structure in natural language generation (DSNNLG), discourse parsing and treebanking (DISRPT) and coreference (CORBON/CRAC), have shown that there is considerable interest and success in bringing together the community working on specific problems. We believe that the discourse community will also benefit from a general forum where work ranging from corpus development/analysis to computational models, and evaluation is discussed, and desiderata can be drawn for future progress. The 3rd CODI workshop is planned as a 1 1/2 day event which brings together different subcommunities. It will feature invited talks and regular papers on the first day. The second day will be dedicated to shared tasks and special sessions which focus on the issues mentioned above. After a first successful iteration in 2021 the shared task on coreference resolution (encompassing entity and abstract coreference and bridging anaphora) in dialogue will be held again in 2022 as the CODI-CRAC 2022 Shared Task on Anaphora, Bridging, and Discourse Deixis in Dialogue, next to the CRAC 2022 Shared Task on Multilingual Coreference Resolution. Topics of interest We welcome symbolic and probabilistic approaches, corpus development and analysis, as well as machine and deep learning approaches to discourse. We appreciate theoretical contributions as well as practical applications, including demos of systems and tools. The goal of the workshop is to provide a forum for the community of NLP researchers working on all aspects of discourse. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * discourse structure * discourse connectives * discourse relations * annotation tools and schemes for discourse phenomena * corpora annotated with discourse phenomena * discourse parsing * cross-lingual discourse processing * cross-domain discourse processing * anaphora and coreference resolution * event coreference * argument mining * coherence modeling * discourse and semantics * discourse in applications such as machine translation, summarization, etc. * evaluation methodology for discourse processing Submissions We solicit four categories of papers: regular workshop papers, demos, shared task papers and extended abstracts. Only regular workshop papers, shared task papers and demos will be included in the proceedings as archival publications. Regular papers must describe original unpublished research. Long papers may consist of up to 8 pages of content, plus unlimited pages for references. Short papers can be up to 4 pages, plus unlimited pages for references. Demo submissions may describe systems, tools, visualizations, etc., and may consist of up to 4 pages, plus unlimited pages for references. Each submission can contain unlimited pages for Appendices but the paper submissions need to remain fully self-contained, as these supplementary materials are completely optional, and reviewers are not even asked to review them. Accepted long, short, and demo papers will be presented orally. Extended abstracts can describe work in progress or those already published elsewhere. These may be two pages long (without references). Extended abstracts are non-archival. They will be presented orally, and included in the workshop program and handbook, but will not appear in the workshop proceedings. Double submission of papers is allowed but will need to be notified at submission. Submission website All submissions must be anonymous and follow the COLING 2022 formatting instructions described here: https://coling2022.org/Submission Please submit your workshop papers at https://www.softconf.com/coling2022/CODI/ Shared task papers should be submitted to the links specified on the shared task pages.
