3-year PhD position in Computational Models of Semantic Memory and its Acquisition (Inria and University of Lille, France)
by Pascal Denis 13 May '25

13 May '25

Hello, Could you please distribute the following job offer? Thanks. Best, Pascal ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3-year PhD position in Computational Models of Semantic Memory and its Acquisition (Inria and University of Lille, France) We invite applications for a 3-year PhD position at the University of Lille in the context of the recently funded research project "COMANCHE" (Computational Models of Lexical Meaning and Change). The position is funded by Inria, the French national research institute in Computer Science and Applied Mathematics. COMANCHE proposes to transfer and adapt neural word embeddings algorithms to model the acquisition and evolution of word meaning, by comparing them with linguistic theories on language acquisition and language evolution. At the intersection between Natural Language Processing, psycholinguistics and historical linguistics, this project intends to validate or revise some of these theories, while also developing computational models that are less data hungry and computationally intensive as they exploit new inductive biases inspired by these disciplines. The first strand of the project, on which the successful candidate will work, focuses on the development of computational models of semantic memory and its acquisition. Two main research directions will be pursued. On the one hand, we will compare the structural properties associated to different semantic spaces derived from word embedding algorithms to those found in human semantic memory as reflected in behavioral data (such as typicality norms) as well as brain imaging data. The latter data will then used as additional supervision to inject more hierarchical structure into the learned semantic spaces. One the other hand, we intend to experiment with training regimes for word embedding algorithms that are closer to those of humans when they acquire language, controlling the quantity as well as the linguistic complexity of the inputs fed to the learning algorithms through the use of longitudinal and child directed speech corpora (e.g., CHILDES, Colaje). In both cases, both English and French data will be considered. The successful candidate holds a Master's degree in computational linguistics or computer science or cognitive science and has prior experience in word embedding models. Furthermore, the candidate will provide strong programming skills, expertise in machine learning approaches and is eager to work across languages. The position is affiliated with the MAGNET team at Inria, Lille [1] as well as with the SCALAB group at University of Lille [2] in an effort to strenghten collaborations between these two groups, and ultimately foster cross-fertilizations between Natural Language Processing and Psycholinguistics. Applications will be considered until the position is filled. However, you are encouraged to apply early as we shall start processing the applications as and when they are received. Applications, written in English or French, should include a brief cover letter with research interests and vision, a CV (including your contact address, work experience, publications), and contact information for at least 2 referees. Applications (and questions) should be sent to Angèle Brunellière (angele.brunelliere(a)univ-lille.fr) and Pascal Denis (pascal.denis(a)inria.fr). The starting date of the position is 1 October 2022 or soon thereafter, for a total of 3 full years.

First Call for Papers: Eighth Universal Dependencies Workshop
by Gosse Bouma 11 Apr '25

11 Apr '25

The eighth workshop on Universal Dependencies Part of SyntaxFest 2025, Ljubljana, August 26-29 Call for Papers Universal Dependencies (UD) is a framework for cross-linguistically consistent treebank annotation that has so far been applied to over 150 languages (https://universaldependencies.org <https://universaldependencies.org/>). The framework is aiming to capture similarities as well as idiosyncrasies among typologically different languages (e.g., morphologically rich languages, pro-drop languages, and languages featuring clitic doubling). The goal in developing UD was not only to support comparative evaluation and cross-lingual learning but also to facilitate multilingual natural language processing and enable comparative linguistic studies. The Universal Dependencies Workshop series was started to create a forum for discussion of the theory and practice of UD, its use in research and development, and its future goals and challenges. Some of the previous workshops have been co-located with Coling, EMNLP, and SyntaxFest. We invite papers on all topics relevant to UD, including but not limited to: * Theoretical foundations and universal guidelines * Linguistic analysis of specific languages and/or constructions * Language typology and linguistic universals * Treebank annotation, conversion and validation * Word segmentation, morphological tagging and syntactic parsing * The use of the UD data for evaluating or understanding language models * Linguistic studies based on the UD data Priority will be given to papers that adopt a cross-lingual perspective. SyntaxFest 2025 https://syntaxfest.github.io/syntaxfest25/index.html SyntaxFest is a biennial event that brings together a series of events focusing on topics such as empirical syntax, linguistic annotation, statistical language analysis, and natural language processing. Apart from the 8th UDW, it hosts TLT, DepLing, IWPT, and Quasy. Each workshop publishes its own proceedings, but all events follow a shared submission process, timeline, and programme. The UniDive 1st Shared Task on Morphosyntactic Parsing takes place on Aug, 26.

2nd CFP - AAAS-2025
by Kurimo Mikko 07 Apr '25

07 Apr '25

[Apologies for cross-posting] == Second Call for Papers and Extended Abstracts == 1st Workshop on Automatic Assessment of Atypical Speech (AAAS-2025) We would like to invite you to submit papers to AAAS workshop co-located with NoDaLiDa/Baltic-HLT<https://www.nodalida-bhlt2025.eu> in Hestia Hotel Europa in Tallinn, Estonia on March 5th, 2025. Workshop website: https://teflon.aalto.fi/aaas-2025/ == Important Dates == Submission DL: 16 December 2024 (both papers and abstracts) Notification of acceptance: 24 January 2025 Camera-ready DL: 3 February 2025 Workshop: 5 March 2025 (full day) All deadlines are 11:55PM UTC-12:00 ("anywhere on Earth"). == Overview == Automatic Assessment of Atypical Speech (AAAS) explores the assessment of pronunciation and speaking skills of children, language learners, people with speech sound disorders and methods to provide automatic rating and feedback using automatic speech recognition (ASR) and large language models (LLMs). Automatic speaking assessment (ASA) is a rapidly growing field that answers to the need of developing AI tools for self-practising second and foreign language skills. This is not limited to pronunciation assessment, but the AI tools can also provide more complex feedback about fluency, vocabulary and grammar of the recorded speech. ASA is also very relevant for detection and quantification of speech disorders and for developing speech exercises that can be performed independent of time and place. The important applications of non-standard speech also include interfaces for children and elderly speakers as an alternative to using text input and output. The topic is timely, because the latest large speech models allow us now to develop ASR and classification methods for low-resourced data, such as atypical speech, where annotated training datasets are rarely available and expensive and difficult to produce and share. The goal of this workshop is to present the latest results in ASA and discuss the future work and collaboration between the researchers in Nordic and Baltic countries. == Topics of Interest == In particular, we would like to invite students, researchers, and other experts and stakeholders to contribute papers and/or join the discussion on the following (and related) topics: Automatic speaking assessment (ASA) for L2 (second or foreign language) pronunciation ASA for spoken L2 proficiency ASA for speech sound disorders (SSD) Automatic speech recognition (ASR) for L2 learners ASR for children and young L2 learners ASA and ASR for Nordic and other low-resource languages and tasks Spoken L2 learning and speech therapy using games Automatic generation of verbal feedback for spoken L2 learners using LLMs == Submission Details == We accept both short and long papers, as well as demo papers. The submissions must describe original and unpublished work. Paper length: Short and demo papers up to 4 pages. Long papers up to 8 pages. References are not included in the page count, and the camera-ready versions of accepted papers will be added to the page to address reviewer comments. Papers should describe original unpublished work or work-in-progress and will be peer-reviewed by at least two members of the program committee in a double-blind fashion. All accepted papers will be collected into a proceedings volume to be published in the ACL anthology. All submissions must follow the NoDaLida template, available in both LaTeX and MS Word. The links to the templates can be found here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1osWGzuRnYRQGRS70Lx_pdQKrIT-NefKS/view https://www.overleaf.com/latex/templates/instructions-for-nodalida-baltic-h… The submission will be through EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=aaas2025 We also invite submissions of maximum 2-page long extended non-anonymous abstracts with any number of pages for references describing work in progress, negative results and opinion pieces. The abstracts, which should follow the same formatting templates as the peer-reviewed papers, will be considered for presentation by the workshop organisers and the accepted ones will be posted on the workshop website. The abstracts can be based on results related to our theme and already published elsewhere. The abstracts will not be published in the proceedings, but only in the workshop program. Please also consider volunteering to review 2-3 papers. == Invited Speakers == We have the pleasure to announce two invited speakers: 1. Nina R. Benway: What is so hard about AI Speech Therapy? Evidence from Efficacy Trials. Nina R Benway, PhD CCC-SLP, is a Postdoctoral Fellow in Electrical and Computer Engineering with Dr. Carol Espy-Wilson. Nina completed her doctoral training in speech-language pathology (concentration: neuroscience) with Dr. Jonathan Preston at Syracuse University, focusing on clinical trials in children with chronic rhotic speech sound disorders. The three studies of her dissertation resulted in the curation of an open-access 175,000-utterance speech corpus, the engineering of audio classification algorithms predicting speech-language pathologist perception of rhotic speech errors, and the clinical trial validation of an artificial intelligence tool that fully automates a speech sound treatment session. Nina’s doctoral training builds upon her undergraduate training in linguistics (acoustic phonetics) at Cornell University, graduate clinical training at The College of Saint Rose, and six years of clinical practice. Through these experiences Nina has refined a multidisciplinary skill set in speech science, speech signal processing, natural language processing, corpus phonetics, machine learning/artificial intelligence (AI), user interface development, cognitive frameworks of learning, and neurocomputational frameworks of speech production. 2. Ari Huhta: Automatic assessment of second/foreign language speaking: Review of developments for examination and teaching/learning purposes. Ari Huhta is a Professor of Language Assessment at the Centre for Applied Language Studies, University of Jyväskylä, Finland. His research interests include diagnostic foreign/second language (L2) assessment, computerised assessment, self-assessment, as well as the development of reading, writing and vocabulary knowledge in L2. He was involved in developing the large-scale multilingual DIALANG online assessment and feedback system in the early 2000s and since then he has specialised in assessments that support language learning. Although his research has focused on learning and assessing reading and writing, he has been involved in designing several rating scales for speaking and in evaluating rating quality and studying rater behavior. Recently, he has participated in research projects that are developing ASR and automated assessment of L2 speaking, as well as using LLMs to evaluate Finnish L2 learners’ proficiency level. == Organizers == Mikko Kurimo (chair), Aalto University, mikko.kurimo(a)aalto.fi Giampiero Salvi, NTNU Sofia Strömbergsson, Karolinska Institutet Sari Ylinen, Tampere University Minna Lehtonen, University of Turku Tamas Grosz, Aalto University Ekaterina Voskoboinik, Aalto University Yaroslav Getman, Aalto University Nhan Phan, Aalto University This workshop is supported by “Technology-enhanced foreign and second-language learning of Nordic languages (TEFLON)” https://teflon.aalto.fi/ NordForsk project nr. 103893. == Contact Information == For questions and comments, please email mikko.kurimo(a)aalto.fi

MentalRiskES@IberLEF2025: Early detection of mental risk
by María Dolores Molina González 31 Mar '25

31 Mar '25

*Registration closes today* *!!* ****We apologize for multiple postings of this e-mail**** MentalRiskES2025 describes the third edition of a novel task on early risk identification of mental disorders in Spanish comments from social media sources. The first and the second editions took place in the IberLEF evaluation forum as part of the SEPLN 2023 and SEPLN 2024. The task was resolved as an online problem, that is, the participants had to detect a potential risk as early as possible in a continuous stream of data. Therefore, the performance not only depended on the accuracy of the systems but also on how fast the problem is detected. These dynamics are reflected in the design of the tasks and the metrics used to evaluate participants. For this third edition, we propose two novel tasks, the first subtask is about the detection of the gambling disorder and the second subtask consists of detecting a type of Addiction. We would like to invite you to participate in the following tasks: 1. Risk Detection of Gambling Disorders (Binary classification) 2. Type of Addiction Detection (Multiclass classification) Find out more at https://sites.google.com/view/mentalriskes2025. MentalRiskES 2025 is part of the IberLEF Workshop and will be held in conjunction with the SEPLN 2025 conference in Zaragoza (Spain). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Important Dates ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Feb 14th Registration open Feb 25th Release of trial corpora (trial server available) Mar 19th Release of training corpora *Mar 31st Registration closed* Apr 7th Release of test corpora and start of the evaluation campaign (test server available and trial submissions closed) Apr 14th End of evaluation campaign (deadline for submission of runs) Apr 18th Publication of official results and release of test gold labels May 12th Deadline for paper submission May 30th Acceptance notification Jun 16th Camera-ready submission deadline Sep TBD Publication of proceedings Note: All deadlines are 11:59PM UTC-12:00 Please reach out to the organizers at MentalRiskEs@IberLEF2025.
