Notification of Acceptance: 10 December 2026. ________________________________________ Speakers: tba ________________________________________ Topics ________________________________________ The interdisciplinary Collaborative Research Center TRR 318 Constructing Explainability explores the ways in which explanations are created, negotiated, and made meaningful across contexts. Previous editions have addressed dimensions of explanation, including understanding and contextualising. The 4th TRR 318 Conference turns to a perspective that has recently gained increasing attention in explainability research: Social XAI (sXAI), which conceptualises explainability as a social practice. Accordingly, the topic of the upcoming conference is "Scaffolding Social XAI." By scaffolding, we refer to the social and communicative supports that enable critical and interactive engagement with ideas, assumptions, technologies, and tools. This encompasses the ability to critically interrogate AI-generated outputs in practice (e.g., in educational contexts such as assessment or diagnosis), including emerging forms of XAI literacy as a situated competence. We invite contributions from a wide range of disciplines that address explainability as a social phenomenon, including work on: (a) explanatory practices in dyadic interaction; (b) explainability and interpretability in AI systems; or (c) explanation processes embedded in institutional and organisational settings. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): • Explainability as a social and interactional practice; • Social XAI and critical perspectives on AI explainability; • Everyday explanations in dyadic or group interaction; • Explainability, interpretability, and transparency in human–AI or human–robot interaction; • The role of explanation in institutional, educational, clinical, or workplace settings; • Critical engagement with explanatory tools, technologies, and design practices; • XAI literacy and critical use of AI in professional practices (e.g., educational assessment, diagnosis, decision-making); • Theoretical, empirical, and methodological approaches to studying explanation across disciplines. ________________________________________ Submission Instructions Submissions are managed via EasyChair.

by Veronika Laippala 08 Jun '26

08 Jun '26

Second Call for Papers 13th Web-as-Corpus (WaC-13) Workshop @EMNLP2026, Budapest, Hungary, 29 Oct, 2026 https://wackyworkshop.org The World Wide Web has evolved from a resource for building linguistic corpora into the central data infrastructure powering modern natural language processing and Large Language Models (LLMs). As web-scale data increasingly shapes AI systems’ knowledge and capabilities, understanding its quality, representativeness, and ethical implications has become critical. At the same time, the “more is better” paradigm is being challenged by issues such as machine-generated content, data toxicity, limited metadata, and the under-representation of many languages and domains. These challenges call for a shift toward Data-Centric AI, focusing on the curation, analysis, and responsible use of web-derived data. The 13th Web-as-Corpus (WaC-13) workshop provides a multidisciplinary forum for research addressing the full lifecycle of web data. We invite submissions on methods, resources, and applications related to web corpora, with special emphasis on multilingual data and less-resourced languages. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): * Creation and evaluation of high-quality datasets for foundation models (e.g., data collection, filtering, enrichment, language identification) * Use of web data in empirical linguistic research * Analysis of web-scale corpora for quality, representativeness, and societal insights * Ethical and legal aspects of collecting, sharing, and using web data By bringing together researchers from NLP, linguistics, and the social sciences, WaC aims to advance best practices for one of the field’s most influential data sources. Important dates: Direct paper submission deadline: 7 August, 2026 Pre-reviewed ARR commitment deadline: 1 September, 2026 Notification of acceptance: 5 September, 2026 Camera-ready paper due: 20 September, 2026 Workshop date: 29 Oct, 2026 Submissions: Submit your papers through https://openreview.net/group?id=EMNLP/2026/Workshop/WaC-13 or through ARR commitment https://openreview.net/group?id=EMNLP/2026/Workshop/WaC-13_ARR_Commitment.

PhD Proposal GRAIL - NLP - Graph - France
by julien.romero＠telecom-sudparis.eu 08 Jun '26

08 Jun '26

Thesis Description The GRAIL (Grounded Recommendation with Auditable Inference Links) project addresses the structural challenges of two-sided cold start in job recommendation. The research focuses on algorithmic decision support within the highly dynamic labor market, where interactions are sparse and profiles are frequently new. The thesis centers on three primary scientific objectives: Uncertainty-Aware Extraction: Design a pipeline to extract missing skill tokens from unstructured resumes and job descriptions while maintaining strict document-level provenance and confidence scores. Hybrid Generative Recommendation: Develop a recommender component that infers missing candidate-job interaction edges to restore predictive power. Each generated edge must be accompanied by an auditable inference link, functioning as a compact evidence subgraph connecting job requirements directly to candidate profiles. Trustworthiness and Fairness Auditing: Implement rigorous equal-opportunity auditing focused on the candidate selection stage, utilizing sensitive attributes strictly for offline reporting to ensure transparent utility-fairness trade-offs. Timeline The PhD program is structured as a three-year project with defined research milestones: Year 1: Finalize the two-sided cold-start protocol, implement the uncertainty-aware skill extraction pipeline, and establish strong evaluation baselines to deliver the initial auditable evidence graph. Year 2: Develop the grounded generative module to propose candidate recommendations using auditable inference links and train the explicit predictive scorer. Year 3: Deploy equal-opportunity auditing mechanisms, quantify system robustness to extraction uncertainty, and consolidate the benchmark, pretrained models, and toolkit into a documented release. Required Skills and Qualifications Strong academic background in computer science, specifically in machine learning, natural language processing (NLP), or recommender systems. Proficiency in programming, algorithm design, and large-scale experimentation. Familiarity with heterogeneous graph-based learning or foundation models. Prior research experience is strongly recommended. Administrative Details Host Institution: Télécom SudParis, Institut Polytechnique de Paris (IPParis). Laboratory: SAMOVAR lab. Funding: Financed by Hi!Paris. Supervisor: Julien Romero. Start Date: September 2026 (flexible). Contract: Full-time. How to Apply To apply for this position, please submit the following materials: A comprehensive resume. A cover letter detailing your research interests and alignment with the GRAIL project. A complete transcript of your academic grades. Recommendation letters (highly appreciated).

MIAI–PRAIRIE Online Seminar: Adele Goldberg (Princeton): Compositionality, creativity in natural language and LLMs (15/6, 5pm)
by Thierry Poibeau 08 Jun '26

08 Jun '26

MIAI–PRAIRIE Online Seminar on LLMs and the Study of Language, Mind, and Society Our next speaker will be Adele Goldberg, from Princeton, for a talk on ''Compositionality, creativity in natural language and LLMs’’, on Monday 15 June, 5pm (French time), Online, free access, with no registration Organized by Caroline Rossi (Université Grenoble Alpes / MIAI) and Thierry Poibeau (ENS–PSL / PRAIRIE–PSAI). Next year’s speakers will include Eloïse Boisseau (AMU, Marseille), and Dallas Card (U. Michigan), among others. ---- *** Compositionality, creativity in natural language and LLMs *** Monday 15 June, 5pm (French time), online (free access, no registration) Connexion link: https://webinaire.numerique.gouv.fr/meeting/signin/invite/78275/creator/433… Adele Goldberg, Princeton Abstract: Today’s LLMs interpret and produce familiar and novel language without abstract symbolic rules. An appreciation of the complexity of natural languages indicates this is more a feature than a bug. New evidence demonstrates that LLMs are also at least as creative as the typical person. Parallels between LLMs and human language highlight the statistical and functional aspects of both systems. For cognitive scientists, LLMs promise of a deeper understanding of compositionality and creativity. Bio: Adele Goldberg is the M. Taylor Pyne Professor of Psychology at Princeton University. Her research explores the formal, semantic, social, statistical, and memory-based factors that shape how languages are learned, represented, and used. She is fascinated by what makes human language both creative and constrained, across adults and children, first and second language learners, and neurotypical and atypical populations. Her current work touches on word meaning, language change, island constraints, metaphor and emotion, good-enough language production, and the forms and functions of grammatical constructions. She is a Fellow of the Linguistic Society of America, the Association for Psychological Science, and the Cognitive Science Society, and an elected member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.

Final CFP: [LaTeLL 2026] International Conference ‘LAnguage TEchnologies for Low-resource Languages’
by Salmane Chafik 07 Jun '26

07 Jun '26

International Conference ‘LAnguage TEchnologies for Low-resource Languages’ (LaTeLL ’2026) Fes, Morocco 28, 29 and 30 September 2026 www.latell.org/2026/ Final Call for Papers ***Final submission deadline 15 June 2026*** Authors who anticipate difficulties in completing the submission process by the deadline are encouraged to contact the conference organisers as soon as possible to discuss the possibility of a reasonable extension. The conference Natural Language Processing (NLP) has witnessed remarkable progress in recent years, largely driven by the emergence of deep learning architectures and, more recently, large language models (LLMs). Nevertheless, these advances have disproportionately benefited high-resource languages that possess abundant data for model training. By contrast, low-resource languages which account for at least 85% of the world’s linguistic diversity and are often spoken by smaller or marginalised communities, have not yet reaped the full benefits of contemporary NLP technologies. This imbalance can be attributed to several interrelated factors, including the scarcity of high-quality training data, limited computational and financial resources, and insufficient community engagement in data collection and model development. Developing NLP applications for low-resource languages poses major challenges, particularly the need for large, well-annotated datasets, standardised tools, and robust linguistic resources. Although several workshops have previously addressed NLP for low-resource languages, LaTeLL is the first international conference dedicated specifically to the automatic processing of such languages. The event aims to provide a forum for researchers to present and discuss their latest work in NLP in general, and particularly in the development and evaluation of language models for low-resource languages. Conference topics We invite submissions on a broad range of themes concerning linguistic and computational studies focusing on low-resource languages, including but not limited to the following topics: Language resources for low-resource languages ● Dataset creation and annotation ● Evaluation methodologies and benchmarks for low-resource settings ● Lexical resources, corpora, and linguistic databases ● Crowdsourcing and community-driven data collection ● Tools and frameworks for low-resource language processing Core language technologies for low-resource languages ● Language modelling and pre-training for low-resource languages ● Speech recognition, text-to-speech, and spoken language understanding ● Phonology, morphology, word segmentation, and tokenisation ● Syntax: tagging, chunking, and parsing ● Semantics: lexical and sentence-level representation NLP Applications for low-resource languages ● Information extraction and named entity recognition ● Question answering systems ● Dialogue and interactive systems ● Summarisation ● Machine translation ● Sentiment analysis, stylistic analysis, and argument mining ● Content moderation ● Information retrieval and text mining Multimodality and Grounding for low-resource languages ● Vision and language for low-resource contexts ● Speech and text multimodal systems ● Low-resource sign language processing Ethics, Equity, and Social Impact for low-resource languages ● Bias and fairness in low-resource language technologies ● Sociolinguistic considerations in technology development ● Cultural appropriateness and sensitivity Human-Centred Approaches in low-resource languages ● Usability and accessibility of low-resource language technologies ● Educational applications and language learning ● Community needs assessment and technology adoption ● User experience research in low-resource contexts Multilinguality and Cross-Lingual Methods for low-resource languages ● Multilingual language models and their adaptation ● Code-switching and code-mixing ● Cross-lingual transfer learning in low-resource languages. Special Theme Track 1 — Building Applications Based on Large Language Models for Low-Resource Languages LaTeLL’2026 will feature a Special Theme Track dedicated to the development of applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) for low-resource languages. This track aims to explore innovative methodologies, architectures, and tools that leverage the power of LLMs to enhance linguistic processing, accessibility, and inclusivity for underrepresented languages. Contributions are encouraged on topics such as model adaptation and fine-tuning, multilingual and cross-lingual transfer, ethical and fairness considerations, and the creation of datasets and benchmarks that facilitate the integration of LLM-based solutions in low-resource settings. Special Theme Track 2 — Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) and Arabic Dialects This special track addresses the unique challenges and opportunities in processing Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) and the rich landscape of Arabic dialects. The diglossic nature of Arabic, where the formal MSA coexists with numerous, widely used spoken dialects, presents a significant hurdle for NLP. While MSA is relatively well-resourced, Arabic dialects are quintessential examples of low-resource languages, often lacking standardised orthographies, annotated corpora, and dedicated processing tools. This track invites submissions on novel research and resources aimed at bridging this gap and advancing the state of the art in Arabic language technology. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: ● Dialect identification and classification ● Creation of corpora and lexical resources for Arabic dialects ● Machine translation between MSA and dialects, and across different dialects ● Speech recognition and synthesis for dialectal Arabic ● Computational modelling of morphology, syntax, and semantics for dialects ● NLP applications (e.g., sentiment analysis, NER) for dialectal user-generated content ● Code-switching between Arabic dialects, MSA, and other languages Submissions and Publication LaTeLL’2026 welcomes high-quality submissions in English, which may take one of the following two forms: ● Regular papers: Up to eight (8) pages in length, presenting substantial, original, completed, and unpublished research. ● Short/poster papers: Up to four (4) pages in length, suitable for concise or focused contributions, ongoing research, negative results, system demonstrations, and similar work. Short papers will be presented during a dedicated poster session. The conference will not consider submissions consisting of abstracts only. All accepted papers (both long and short) will be published as electronic proceedings (with ISBN) and made available on the conference website at the time of the event. The organisers will submit the proceedings for inclusion in the ACL Anthology. To prepare your submission, please make sure to use the LaTeLL’2026 style files available here: LaTeX: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1RceWyUqjFLEbv_oNto-x2Quop7qT4-wf/view?usp=… Word: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1m6VeC9jtMpe-Ku2QREgrPlE2-NTDvJvZ/edit?u… Overleaf: https://www.overleaf.com/read/ttzzfcnjrgvw#e82bef Papers should be submitted through Softconf/START using the following link: https://softconf.com/p/latell2026 Authors of papers receiving exceptionally positive reviews will be invited to prepare extended and substantially revised versions for submission to a leading journal in the field of Natural Language Processing (NLP).
