First call for papers for the First Large Language Model Memorization (L2M2) workshop @ACL 2025
by Verna 28 Jan '25

28 Jan '25

Call for Papers for the L2M2 workshop Large language models (LLMs) are known to memorize their training data. In recent years, this phenomenon has inspired multiple distinct research directions. Some researchers currently focus on analyzing and understanding LLM memorization, attempting to localize memorized knowledge within a model or understand which examples are most likely to be memorized. Other researchers aim to edit or remove information that an LLM has memorized. Still, others study the downstream implications of LLM memorization, including legal concerns associated with memorizing copyrighted articles, privacy risks associated with LLMs leaking private information, and concerns that LLMs cheat on benchmarks by memorizing test data. The First Workshop on Large Language Model Memorization (L2M2), <https://sites.google.com/view/memorization-workshop/home> co-located with ACL 2025 <https://2025.aclweb.org/> in Vienna, seeks to provide a central venue for researchers studying LLM memorization from these different angles. We invite paper submissions on all topics related to LLM memorization, including but not limited to: - Behavioral analyses that seek to understand what training data is memorized by models. - Methods for measuring the extent to which models memorize training data. - Interpretability work analyzing how models memorize training data. - The relationship between training data memorization and membership inference. - Analyses of how memorization of training data is related to generalization and model capabilities. - Methods or benchmarks for preventing models from outputting memorized data, such as machine unlearning, model editing, or output filtering techniques. - Model editing techniques for modifying knowledge that models have memorized. - Legal implications and risks of LLM memorization. - Privacy and security risks of LLM memorization. - Implications of memorization for benchmarking, such as data contamination concerns. Any models that process or generate text are in scope for this workshop, including text-only language models, vision language models, machine translation models, etc. Memorization in the context of L2M2 could refer to verbatim memorization of training data, approximate memorization of copyrighted content, memorization of factual knowledge, memorization of correct answers to questions, or other definitions. If you have any questions about whether your paper is suitable for our workshop, feel free to contact us at l2m2-workshop(a)googlegroups.com. Submission Guidelines We seek submissions of at least 4 and at most 8 pages, not including references. All submissions will be reviewed in a single track, regardless of length. Please format your papers using the standard ACL format <https://www.overleaf.com/latex/templates/association-for-computational-ling…>. We will accept direct submissions via OpenReview <https://openreview.net/group?id=aclweb.org/ACL/2025/Workshop/L2M2#tab-recen…>, as well as submissions made through ACL Rolling Review. We accept two types of submissions: 1. Archival: Original work that will be included in the workshop proceedings. Submissions must be anonymized and will go through a double-blind review process. 2. Non-archival: Such submissions will not be included in the proceedings. The workshop will accept two categories of non-archival work: - Work published elsewhere: The authors should indicate the original venue, and will be accepted if the organizers think the work will benefit from exposure to the audience of this workshop. Submissions do not need to be anonymized. - Work-in-progress: These may report on work in progress that have not yet been published at a different venue. The acceptance will be based on a double-blind review and thus submissions of this type need to be anonymized. Dual submissions We allow submissions that are also under review in other venues, but please note that many conferences do not allow it, so make sure that you do not violate their policy as well. Anonymity period We do not have an anonymity deadline. Preprints are allowed, both before the submission deadline as well as after.

Story markup languages
by Darren Cook 27 Jan '25

27 Jan '25

Is there any established xml or other markup language for novels and short stories? I'm particularly interested in marking up dialogue with the name of the character who is speaking, and then in tools that allow extracting the dialogue of each character (e.g. to analyse and contrast the vocabulary each uses). If so, following on from that, are there open-source ML models that try to identify the speaker to add this markup, and existing training data? Thanks, Darren

Final CFP- CL4Health Workshop @ NAACL 2025 -Extended deadline - 4th February 2025
by Paul Thompson 26 Jan '25

26 Jan '25

Second Workshop on Patient-Oriented Language Processing (CL4Health) @ NAACL 2025 https://bionlp.nlm.nih.gov/cl4health2025/ Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA SCOPE CL4Health fills the gap among the different biomedical language processing workshops by providing a general venue for a broad spectrum of patient-oriented language processing research. The second workshop on patient-oriented language processing follows the successful inaugural CL4Health workshop (co-located with LREC-COLING 2024), which clearly demonstrated the need for a computational linguistics venue that focuses on language related to health of the public. CL4Health is concerned with the resources, computational approaches, and behavioral and socio-economic aspects of the public interactions with digital resources in search of health-related information that satisfies their information needs and guides their actions. The workshop invites papers concerning all areas of language processing focused on patients' health and health-related issues concerning the public. The issues include, but are not limited to accessibility and trustworthiness of health information provided to the public; explainable and evidence-supported answers to consumer-health questions; accurate summarization of patients' health records at their health-literacy level; understanding patients' non-informational needs through their language, and accurate and accessible interpretations of biomedical research. The topics of interest for the workshop include but are not limited to the following: * Health-related information needs and online behaviors of the public; * Quality assurance and ethics considerations in language technologies and approaches applied to text and other modalities for public consumption; * Summarization of data from electronic health records for patients; * Detection of misinformation in consumer health-related resources and mitigation of potential harms; * Consumer health question answering (Community Question Answering)(CQA); * Biomedical text simplification/adaptation; * Dialogue systems to support patients' interactions with clinicians, healthcare systems, and online resources; * Linguistic resources, data and tools for language technologies focusing on consumer health; * Infrastructures and pre-trained language models for consumer health SHARED TASK Perspective-aware Healthcare Answer Summarization (PerAnsSumm) will be co-located with the workshop. In community / consumer health question answering, several aspects, such as question understanding and answer generation, have been studied for over a decade. A new and important question posed by this task is the different perspectives provided in the answers to questions posted to online forums. The responses to the questions offer different answer perspectives, e.g., personal experiences, factual information, and suggestions. Traditionally, the CQA answer summarization task has focused on a single best-voted answer as a reference summary. A single answer does not capture all the perspectives. Moreover, a structured presentation of the information in the form of perspective-specific summaries may be more useful for the end-users. To address these gaps, this challenge introduces a novel perspective-specific answer summarization task within a CQA setup. The task will use the Perspective-aware healthcare Answer SuMmarizAtion (PUMA) dataset, a corpus of medical question-answer pairs created by the task organizers. The PUMA dataset consists of 3,167 CQA threads with approximately 10K answers filtered from the Yahoo! L6 corpus. Each answer in PUMA is annotated with five perspective spans: ‘cause’, ‘suggestion’, ‘experience’, ‘question’, and ‘information’. Further details are about the shared task are available at: https://peranssumm.github.io/ IMPORTANT DATES January 30, 2025 February 4, 2005 (Extended Deadline) -Workshop Paper Due Date️ March 1, 2025 - Notification of acceptance March 10, 2025 - Camera-ready papers due April 8, 2025 - Pre-recorded video due (hard deadline) May 3 OR 4, 2025 - Workshop SUBMISSIONS Two types of submissions are invited: - Full papers: should not exceed eight (8) pages of text, plus unlimited references.

Second CfP: Sixth Workshop on "Gender Bias in Natural Language Processing", Vienna, ACL
by Agnieszka Falenska 25 Jan '25

25 Jan '25

*Apologies for cross-posting* Sixth Workshop on Gender Bias in Natural Language Processing <https://gebnlp-workshop.github.io/> ACL 2025- Vienna, Austria July 27–August 1st, 2025 Second Call for Papers Gender bias, among other demographic biases (e.g., race, nationality, religion), in machine-learned models is of increasing interest to the scientific community and industry. Models of natural language are highly affected by such biases, which are present in widely used products and can lead to poor user experiences. There is a growing body of research into improved representations of gender in NLP models. Key example approaches are to build and use balanced training and evaluation datasets (e.g. Webster et al., 2018), and to change the learning algorithms themselves (e.g. Bolukbasi et al., 2016). While these approaches show promising results, there is more to do to solve identified and future bias issues. In order to make progress as a field, we need to create widespread awareness of bias and a consensus on how to work against it, for instance by developing standard tasks and metrics. Our workshop provides a forum to achieve this goal. Topics of interest We invite submissions of technical work exploring the detection, measurement, and mediation of gender bias in NLP models and applications. Other important topics are the creation of datasets, identifying and assessing relevant biases or focusing on fairness in NLP systems. Finally, the workshop is also open to non-technical work addressing sociological perspectives, and we strongly encourage critical reflections on the sources and implications of bias throughout all types of work. Paper Submission Information Submissions will be accepted as short papers (4 pages) and as long papers (8 pages), plus additional pages for references, following the ACL 2025 guidelines. Supplementary material can be added, but should not be central to the argument of the paper. Blind submission is required. Each paper should include a statement which explicitly defines (a) what system behaviors are considered as bias in the work and (b) why those behaviors are harmful, in what ways, and to whom (cf. Blodgett et al. (2020)). More information on this requirement, which was successfully introduced at GeBNLP 2020, can be found on the workshop website. We also encourage authors to engage with definitions of bias and other relevant concepts such as prejudice, harm, discrimination from outside NLP, especially from social sciences and normative ethics, in this statement and in their work in general. Non-archival option The authors have the option of submitting research as non-archival, meaning that the paper will not be published in the conference proceedings. We expect these submissions to describe the same quality of work and format as archival submissions. Important dates Direct submission deadline <https://openreview.net/group?id=aclweb.org/ACL/2025/Workshop/GeBNLP>: March 1, 2025 Pre-reviewed (ARR) submission deadline <https://openreview.net/group?id=aclweb.org/ACL/2025/Workshop/GeBNLP_ARR_Com…>: March 25, 2025 Notification of acceptance: April 17, 2025 Camera-ready paper deadline: May 16, 2025 Workshop dates: July 31st - August 1st 2025 Please take care of the following policy regarding OpenReview: New profiles created without an institutional email will go through a moderation process that can take up to two weeks. New profiles created with an institutional email will be activated automatically. Organizers Christine Basta, Alexandria University Marta R.
