Call for Papers: The 19th Linguistic Annotation Workshop (LAW-XIX)
We invite submissions for LAW-XIX, co-located with ACL 2025 in Vienna,
Austria, in July/Aug 2025.
The LAW-XIX will provide a forum for presentation and discussion of
innovative research on all aspects of linguistic annotation, including
creation/evaluation of annotation schemes, methods for automatic and
manual annotation, use and evaluation of annotation software and
frameworks, representation of linguistic data and annotations,
semi-supervised “human in the loop” methods of annotation,
crowd-sourcing approaches, and more.
Special Theme
The special theme of LAW-XIX is "*Subjectivity and variation in
linguistic annotations*". In addition to LAW's general topics, we
specifically invite submissions on:
* Subjectivity and human label variation in linguistic annotations
* Learning from annotation disagreements
* Detecting annotation noise in human label variation
* Accounting for subjectivity in label aggregation
* Ways to aggregate multiple annotators' labels beyond majority vote
* Any other topics related to the special theme.
Regarding subjectivity, we are particularly interested in work
addressing the*annotation of multidimensional constructs from the
political and social sciences* and encourage submissions on the
following topics:
* Theory-driven operationalization of complex political or
socio-psychological constructs,
* such as populism, moral values, or stereotypes Creation of
linguistically annotated datasets that capture such constructs
* Relation between theories and textual annotations
* Challenges for the measurement of multidimensional constructs from text
* Challenges for validating (a) theories, (b) annotations
* Implications and risks for manual annotation and automatic
prediction of socio-psychological constructs from text.

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.

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).

DEADLINE EXTENSION: 3rd TRR 318 Conference: Contextualizing Explanations (ContEx25)
http://contex2025.net/
As AI systems are used more and more in high-stakes domains, it also becomes ever-more important to make AI systems transparent to ensure meaningful human control and empower human users to contest or override AI-based decisions. Without sufficient transparency, increasingly complex and autonomous AI systems may leave users feeling overwhelmed and out of control, which is legally and ethically unacceptable, especially in the context of high-stakes decisions. For the users to feel empowered rather than out of control, explanations need to be relevant, providing sufficient information on which basis an output can be contested or challenged.
It has been increasingly noted by the XAI community that no one explanation can fit all needs. Further, recent approaches have advocated for a more participative approach to XAI in which users are not only involved but can directly shape and guide the explanations given by a certain AI System.
The 3rd TRR 318 Conference: Contextualizing Explanations is an international and interdisciplinary conference focusing on the question how explanations can be contextualized to increase their relevance and empower users.
Key research questions that we want to explore during the conference include:
How do contextual variables influence the effectiveness of explanations?
What are the relevant context factors to be taken into account in adapting an explanation to specific domains, users, or situations?
How can context be represented algorithmically to support contextual adaptation of XAI explanations?
What new architectures or approaches in XAI support the dynamic adaptation of explanations with respect to changing user needs?
How can user modelling support a more personalized explanation process?
In which ways can the dynamics of context be modelled?
How can the suitability of contextually adapted explanations be studied / validated / evaluated?
Which explanation processes are particularly suitable for which context?
Which context-specific outcomes are influenced by explanations?
How can XAI empower users across diverse contexts to make informed decisions and effectively interact with AI systems?
What constitutes a useful taxonomy for categorizing contexts in which explanations are provided?
What are the various contexts in which explanations are provided and utilized?
The 3rd TRR318 Conference: Contextualizing Explanations invites contributions from a wide range of disciplines (computational but also human/social science) seeking to contribute to advancing research on how explanations can be contextually adapted.
We invite interested participants to submit a two page abstract (+ references) using the LNCS Springer template via Easychair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=contex25
The abstracts will be peer-reviewed and appear as Proceedings published by Bielefeld University Press.
The conference is hosted and supported by the TRR 318 “Constructing Explainability”: http://trr318.de <http://trr318.de/>

* Workshop @ACM ICMR 2025: June 30, 2025
Modern communication does not rely anymore solely on mainstream media like newspapers or television, but rather takes place over social networks, in real-time, and with live interactions among users. The speedup of distribution and the amount of information available, however, also led to an increased amount of misleading content, disinformation and propaganda. Conversely, the fight against disinformation, in which news agencies and NGOs (among others) take part on a daily basis to avoid the risk of citizens' opinions being distorted, became even more crucial and demanding, especially for what concerns sensitive topics such as politics, health and religion.
Disinformation campaigns are leveraging, among others, AI-based tools for content generation and modification: hyper-realistic visual, speech, textual and video content have emerged under the collective name of "deepfakes", and more recently with the use of Large Language Models (LLMs) and Large Multimodal Models (LMMs), undermining the perceived credibility of media content. It is, therefore, even more crucial to counter these advances by devising new robust and trustworthy AI tools able to detect the presence of inaccurate, synthetic and manipulated content, accessible to journalists and fact-checkers.
Future multimedia disinformation detection research relies on the combination of different modalities and on the adoption of the latest advances of deep learning approaches and architectures. These raise new challenges and questions that need to be addressed to reduce the effects of disinformation campaigns. The workshop, in its fourth edition, welcomes contributions related to different aspects of AI-powered disinformation detection, analysis and mitigation.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Disinformation detection in multimedia content (e.g., video, audio, texts, images)
- Multimodal verification methods
- Synthetic and manipulated media detection
- Multimedia forensics
- Disinformation spread and effects in social media
- Analysis of disinformation campaigns in societally-sensitive domains
- Robustness of media verification against adversarial attacks and real-world complexities
- Fairness and non-discrimination of disinformation detection in multimedia content
- Explaining disinformation detection results to non-expert users
- Temporal and cultural aspects of disinformation
- Dataset sharing and governance in AI for disinformation
- Datasets for disinformation detection and multimedia verification
- Open resources, e.g., datasets, software tools
- Large Language Models for analyzing and mitigating disinformation campaigns
- Large Multimodal Models for media verification
- Multimedia verification systems and applications
- System fusion, ensembling and late fusion techniques
- Benchmarking and evaluation frameworks
