2nd CFP - Normalization of genetic phenotypes in Dysmorphology Physical Examination @ BioCreative VIII - track 3
by Davy Weissenbacher 03 Jul '23

03 Jul '23

*Task:* We call for automated systems to extract and normalize the findings in dysmorphology physical examinations. The dataset consists of 3136 de-identified observations with dysmorphic findings manually annotated and normalized with their corresponding Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) terms. Both extraction and normalization are challenging. The extraction due to the descriptive style of the examinations which, for conciseness, report findings with disjoint and overlapping mentions. The normalization due to the large scale of the HPO ontology which requires a normalizer to learn the task without supervision since our training set does not provide examples of all terms in the HPO. See https://biocreative.bioinformatics.udel.edu/tasks/biocreative-viii/track-3/ for details. *Motivation:* The dysmorphology physical examination catalogs minor morphological differences in patients’ bodies and may identify general medical signs such as neurologic dysfunction. Its findings enable correlations of patients with known rare genetic diseases and allow researchers to delineate undescribed genetic conditions. These medical findings are nearly always captured as unstructured free text within the electronic health record, making it unavailable for downstream computational analysis. Advanced Natural Language Processing methods are therefore required to retrieve the information from the records. *In short: * • 3136 de-identified observations with dysmorphic and normal findings manually annotated and normalized with their corresponding Human Phenotype Ontology terms • Baseline systems available (e.g. doc2HPO, NeuralCR, PhenoTagger, PhenoBERT, and txt2HPO) • Codalab opened at https://codalab.lisn.upsaclay.fr/competitions/11351 • Evaluation period: Sept. 15, 9:00 UTC - Sept. 18, 23:59 UTC [Apologies for cross-posting] Best regards, Davy

Call For Participation: Machine Translation for Indian Languages (MTIL)
by Surupendu Gangopadhyay 03 Jul '23

03 Jul '23

Apologies for multiple posting *********************************** *------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Machine Translation for Indian Languages (MTIL) 2023------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------* We invite all IR and NLP researchers and enthusiasts to participate in the MTIL track (https://mtilfire.github.io/mtil/2023/) held in conjunction with the Forum for Information Retrieval Evaluation (FIRE) 2023 ( http://fire.irsi.res.in/). Indian languages have many linguistic complexities. Though some Indian languages share syntactic similarities, some possess intricate morphological structures. At the same time, some Indian languages are low-resource. Therefore the machine translation models should address these unique challenges in translating between Indian languages. The MTIL track consists of two tasks: 1. *General Translation Task (Task 1):* Task participants should build a machine translation model to translate sentences of the following language pairs: 1. Hindi-Gujarati 2. Hindi-Kannada 3. Kannada-Hindi 4. Hindi-Odia 5. Odia-Hindi 6. Hindi-Punjabi 7. Punjabi-Hindi 8. Hindi-Sindhi 9. Urdu-Kashmiri 10. Telugu-Hindi 11. Hindi-Telugu 12. Urdu-Hindi 13. Hindi-Urdu 2. *Domain Specific Translation Task (Task 2)*: Task participants will build machine translation models for Governance and Healthcare domains. 1. Healthcare: a. Hindi-Gujarati b. Kannada-Hindi c. Hindi-Odia d. Odia-Hindi e. Hindi-Punjabi f. Kannada-Hindi 2. Governance: a. Hindi-Gujarati b. Kannada-Hindi c. Hindi-Odia d. Odia-Hindi e. Hindi-Punjabi f. Kannada-Hindi *Dataset:* The primary source of parallel language pairs is Bharat Parallel Corpus Collection (BPCC), released by AI4Bharat (https://ai4bharat.iitm.ac.in/bpcc ). Participants are encouraged to add datasets of their choice, including parallel corpora and monolingual datasets, to train their models. More information on registration and participation in the track can be found here: https://mtilfire.github.io/mtil/2023/ This track is being done in association with BHASHINI ( https://bhashini.gov.in/) *Organisers* - Prasenjit Majumder, DAIICT Gandhinagar,India and TCG CREST, Kolkata,India - Arafat Ahsan, IIIT-Hyderabad,India - Asif Ekbal, IIT-Patna,India - Saran Pandian, DAIICT Gandhinagar,India - Ramakrishna Appicharla, IIT-Patna ,India - Surupendu Gangopadhyay, DAIICT Gandhinagar,India - Ganesh Epili, DAIICT Gandhinagar,India - Dreamy Pujara, DAIICT Gandhinagar,India - Misha Patel, DAIICT Gandhinagar,India - Aayushi Patel, DAIICT Gandhinagar,India - Bhargav Dave, DAIICT Gandhinagar,India - Mukesh Jha, DAIICT Gandhinagar,India

2nd Call: Presentation at CIKM 2023 Industry Day
by jiyinhe＠gmail.com 01 Jul '23

01 Jul '23

The Industry Day of CIKM ’23 will be held on Sunday 22nd Oct 2023 in Birmingham, UK. As with the main conference, which will be held on-site, we anticipate that all presentations for the Industry Day will be delivered in person. Exceptions may be made in case of severe travelling restrictions. We call for technical talks which will cover how topics of interest relevant to the broader CIKM community, including but not limited to knowledge management, information retrieval, efficient data processing, neural and large language models, evaluation, recommender systems, data mining, and others found in the CIKM ‘23 Call for Papers are used in an industrial setting. For example, how machine learning is put to use in practical scenarios, how user behaviour can be observed and interpreted, how to improve systems in practice, how industrial pipelines can be optimised, and how scale is a challenge in more ways than the obvious. We also encourage talk proposals from small companies, such as startups or spin-offs from either a university project or a large company Talks may address challenges, solutions, and case studies of interesting and innovative systems in areas including but not limited to: * Innovative approaches used in deployed systems and product * System design from industry practitioners which identify best practices and design principles for machine learning systems and their scalability aspects * Metrics and measurement techniques used to understand performance of production systems * Practical challenges such as data, privacy, integrity, scale, regulation, etc. * Domain specific challenges and niche focuses * Connections with academia to solve interesting problems, including talk proposals from academics spending time in industry, or vice-versa, covering insights for other practitioners The authors of accepted proposals will be invited to submit an abstract to be published in the conference proceeding. Each presentation will be 15-20 minutes long including Q&A. Submissions should include: - Title and abstract - Speaker's bio - Relevance to above themes and CIKM topics - CIKM is a technical conference, so preference will be given to talks describing applied research and technical challenges rather than product presentations. - Speakers will be asked to confirm their presence at the conference if their submission is accepted. Submission Instructions ------------------------ Proposals should be at most 2 pages and follow the ACM format. Formatting guidelines are available at the ACM Website (use the ˮsigconf” proceedings template). https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template Submissions are not anonymous and should contain speaker details. Proposals should be submitted electronically via EasyChair: https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=cikm23 Important Dates: ----------------- - All deadlines are at 11:59pm in the Anywhere on Earth time zone. - Submissions Due: July 14, 2023 - Notifications: August 11, 2023 - Camera ready for abstracts (no exceptions): August 18, 2023 Industry Day Chairs Jiyin He, Signal AI, UK Jeremy Pickens, Redgrave Data, USA Udo Kruschwitz, University of Regensburg, Germany Contact: cikm2023-industry(at)easychair.org
