PROFE 2025 @ IberLEF 2025 - Second Call for Participation (Development data available)
by ALVARO RODRIGO YUSTE 20 Mar '25

20 Mar '25

<Apologies for cross-postings> ------------------------------------------------ Call for Participation PROFE 2025: Language Proficiency Evaluation IberLEF 2025 Shared Task https://nlp.uned.es/question-answering/profe2025 PROFE 2025 reuses the exams for Spanish proficiency evaluation developed by Instituto Cervantes over many years to evaluate human students. Therefore, automatic systems will be evaluated under the same conditions as humans were. Systems will receive a set of exercises with their corresponding instructions without specific training material. In this way we expect Transfer Learning approaches or the use of Generative Large Language Models. Subtasks PROFE 2025 has three subtasks, one per exercise type. Teams can participate in any combination of them. Each subtask contains several exercises of the same type. The subtasks are: 1. Multiple choice subtask: each exercise includes a text and a set of multiple-choice questions about the text where only one answer is correct. Given a multiple-choice question, systems must select the correct answer among the candidates. 2. Matching subtask: each exercise contains two sets of texts. Systems must find the text in the second set that best matches the first set. There is only one possible matching per text, but the first set can contain extra unnecessary texts. 3. Filling the gap subtask: each exercise contains a text with several gaps corresponding to textual fragments that have been removed and presented disorderly as options. Systems must determine the correct position for each fragment. There is only one correct text per gap, but there could be more candidates than gaps. The different exercises open research on how to approach them, adapting different prompts when using generative models. Dataset We will use the IC-UNED-RC-ES dataset created from real examinations at Instituto Cervantes. These exams were created by human experts to assess language proficiency in Spanish. We have already collected the exams and converted them to a digital format, which is ready to be used in the task. The dataset contains exams at different levels (from A1 to C2). The complete dataset contains 282 exams with 855 exercises. The total number of evaluation points are 6146 (among 16570 options) distributed by exercise type as: multiple-choice: 3544 responses matching: 2309 responses fill-the-gap: 293 responses In PROFE 2025 we plan to use around 50% of the exams, so the other 50% remains hidden for PROFE second edition. We intend not to distribute the gold standard to prevent overfitting in post-campaign experiments and data contamination in LLMs. Evaluation measures and baseline We will use traditional accuracy (proportion of correct answers) as the main evaluation measure. Systems will receive evaluation scores from two different perspectives: * At the question level, where correct answers are counted individually without grouping them. * At the exam level, where scores for each exam are considered. Each exam contains several exercises of different types. An exam is considered to be passed if an accuracy score (accounted as the proportion of correct answers) above 0.5 is reached. Then, the proportion of passed exams is given as a global score. This perspective will only apply to those teams participating in the three subtasks. More in detail, the exact evaluation per subtask is as follows: * Multiple choice subtask: we will measure accuracy as the proportion of questions correctly answered * Matching subtask: we will measure accuracy as the proportion of correct texts matched. * Fill in the gap subtask: We will measure accuracy as the proportion of correctly filled gaps. We will use accuracy as the evaluation measure because there is only one correct option among candidates and because it is the measure applied to humans doing the same exams. Thus, we can compare the performance of automatic systems and humans under the same conditions A preliminary baseline using ChatGPT obtains the following results for each exercise type (provided that different prompting can produce slightly different results): * Multiple choice accuracy: 0.64 * Filling the gap accuracy: 0.43 * Matching accuracy: 0.51 Schedule February 6, 2025 Registration opens March 10, 2025 Training data released April 28, 2025 Test set release May 9, 2025 Deadline for submitting runs May 14, 2025 Release of evaluation results June 3, 2025 Paper submission deadline Organizers Alvaro Rodrigo<https://www.uned.es/universidad/docentes/informatica/alvaro-rodrigo-yuste.h…>, UNED NLP & IR Group (Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia) Anselmo Peñas<https://www.uned.es/universidad/docentes/informatica/anselmo-penas-padilla.…>, UNED NLP & IR Group (Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia) Alberto Pérez<https://www.uned.es/universidad/docentes/informatica/alberto-perez-garcia-p…>, UNED NLP & IR Group (Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia) Sergio Moreno<https://www.uned.es/universidad/docentes/en/informatica/sergio-moreno-alvar…>, UNED NLP & IR Group (Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia) Javier Fruns, Instituto Cervantes Inés Soria, Instituto Cervantes Rodrigo Agerri<https://ragerri.github.io/>, HiTz (Universidad del País Vasco, UPV/EHU) AVISO LEGAL.

second CFP: The First Workshop on Integrating NLP and Psychology to Study Social Interactions (NLPSI)
by Neele Falk 20 Mar '25

20 Mar '25

***SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS: The First Workshop on Integrating NLP and Psychology to Study Social Interactions (NLPSI) *** NLPSI will be co-located with the International AAAI Conference on Web and Social Media (ICWSM’25) and will take place in person on Monday 23 June 2025. ** Background and Scope ** Recent advances in natural language processing (NLP) have enabled not only the modeling of syntax and semantics but also the analysis of higher-level aspects of human communication—such as pragmatics, social dynamics, and emotional expression. Building on these advances, we can now address foundational questions that remain relatively unexplored in NLP: What are the core psychological processes that shape human behavior and communication? What factors influence how individuals perceive, process, and produce language, and how do these processes impact communication? Psychology can offer valuable insights into these questions, as it has been studying human behavior, perception and communication for years. At the same time, NLP enables us to go beyond controlled, small-scale experiments and conduct large-scale studies to better explore certain theories and research questions in psychology. NLPSI workshop seeks to bridge the two disciplines with a primary focus on NLP research that is grounded in psychological theories. This is an interdisciplinary workshop, and we invite researchers from NLP, Social Psychology, Communication Sciences, Affective Computing, and related fields to submit their work. We welcome submissions on topics including, but not restricted to, the following: - Psychological constructs (e.g., beliefs, motives, feelings, affect, personality). - Psychological studies, especially those focused on interaction. - Language and social identities, including ethnicity and group affiliation. - Communication patterns such as empathy, persuasion, and conflict resolution - Role of emotions in interpersonal communication, including phenomena like emotion contagion and interpersonal emotion regulation. - LLMs in experimental, interactional studies. - Cross-cultural variations in communication and behavior. ** Submission Types ** - Long papers (5 to 8 pages) that present original research, from preliminary findings to established contributions, including theory, experiments, or applications. - Short papers (up to 4 pages) that introduce emerging ideas, work in progress, or early-stage research with clear significance. - Extended Abstracts (up to 2 pages)that present ongoing work, position papers, previously published work, or research projects. Abstracts can be submitted either for inclusion in the proceedings (archival) or as non-archival contributions. ** Format ** All papers must follow the AAAI two-column, camera-ready style, for US Letter (8.5" x 11") paper, using Type 1 or TrueType fonts (available templates: AAAI 2025 Author Kit on Overleaf or AAAI 2025 Author Kit.zip [Word | LaTeX]). The review process will be double-blind. Please anonymize your papers by removing identifying information such as author names, affiliations, and funding details. ** Important Dates ** Paper submission deadline: March 21, 2025 Notification of acceptance: April 30, 2025 Camera ready: May 26, 2025 NLPSI Workshop day: June 23rd, 2025 Note: All deadlines are 11:59 pm UTC -12h (anywhere on earth). ** Organizers ** Aswathy Velutharambath, University of Bamberg Sofie Labat, Ghent University Neele Falk, University of Stuttgart Flor Miriam Plaza-del-Arco, Bocconi University Roman Klinger, University of Bamberg Véronique Hoste, Ghent University ** Website and Contact ** For further information and updates, visit the NLPSI website: nlpsi-workshop.github.io If you have any questions, please contact nlpsi-workshop-organizers.nlproc(a)uni-bamberg.de

Dear colleagues, We invite research contributions to our workshop, focusing on reproducible and reusable computational models for social data analysis. The event will also feature an interactive replicability session to enhance hands-on learning and collaboration. Please feel free to share with those interested in your network. Keynote: Professor Carole Goble, University of Manchester (leading eScience Research Lab) Call for papers: R2CASS2025 – International workshop “Social Science Meets Web Data: Reproducible and Reusable Computational Approaches” at ICWSM 2025 Paper submission deadline: March 31st, 2025 Website: https://r2cass2025.wordpress.com/ Submission: https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=r2ca The first international workshop “Social Science Meets web Data: Reproducible and Reusable Computational Approaches” (R2CASS2025) will be held in conjunction with “International AAAI Conference on Web and Social Media” (ICWSM 2025) in Copenhagen, Denmark on June 23rd, 2025. The workshop will be held in-person and at least one author of the accepted papers will be required to register and present it in the workshop. The papers presented will be published in the workshop proceedings of the conference. Artificial Intelligence (AI) based models have a growing influence in social science research for analyzing behavioral patterns on social media and other digital platforms. Computational reproducibility has been a concern with these models as they deal with living data that is likely to change, contain personal information and therefore, ethical restrictions on their use. The workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners to discuss and exchange ideas towards potential interdisciplinary collaborations from computer science, social science, meta-science and other related disciplines. It provides a platform to present and critically analyze computational reproducibility guidelines and checklists for social sciences. The participants will focus on the open challenges and propose methodologies in computational reproducibility for social science towards improving research transparency, reproducibility, and reusability. Workshop participants are also encouraged to volunteer for and participate in the interactive replicability session attempting to replicate existing methods on sample data. (for participation in the interactive replicability session, please contact the workshop organizers at https://r2cass2025.wordpress.com/contact-2/) The workshop calls for theoretical and practical research contributions that employ qualitative, quantitative and analytical approaches including full papers, short papers, resource papers, position papers and posters on the topics (but not limited to): • Data and software management in machine learning and natural language processing-driven studies • Computational methods on sentiment analysis, bias analysis, toxicity, and sexism detection • Text categorization and topic analysis • Digital behavior analysis on social media and other digital platforms • Computational reproducibility checklists and workflows in social science • FAIR principles in ML research for social science • Open Science applications and reproducibility challenges • Metadata standards for ML/NLP research • Tools for replicating complex social science models using web-based data • Integration of open-source ML/NLP tools for web data analysis Submission guidelines As per AAAI-ICWSM guidelines, all papers must be submitted as high-resolution PDF files formatted in AAAI two-column, camera-ready style, for US Letter (8.5” x 11”) paper. Full papers are recommended to be 8 pages long and must be at most 11 pages long, including only the main text and the references. The mandatory Ethics Checklist (and brief additional Ethics Statement, if desired, see below), optional appendices, etc. do not count toward the page limit and should be placed after the references. Appendices, if they exist, should be placed after the Ethics Checklist. Revision papers and final camera-ready full papers can be up to 12 pages. Dataset papers must be no longer than 10 pages, Poster papers must be no longer than 4 pages, and Demo descriptions must be no longer than 2 pages. No source files (Word or LaTeX) are required at the time of submission for review; only the PDF file is permitted. Finally, the copyright slug may be omitted in the initial submission phase, and no copyright form is required until a paper is accepted for publication. For more on paper formatting guidelines, please visit ICWSM guidelines. Co-organizers Fakhri Momeni, GESIS – Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences, Germany M.

Third call for participation - MentalRiskES@IberLEF2025: Early detection of mental risk
by María Dolores Molina González 19 Mar '25

19 Mar '25

*Release of training corpora and registration still open* *!!* ****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.
