Workshop description:
Interaction and communication are at the heart of every organisation, from
small to large, and take many forms: email, group messaging applications,
face-to-face and online meetings of various sizes, and others. Insights
into how people express complex issues, discuss their own and others’
intentions and make decisions could help make these processes more
efficient and/or transparent and lead to a range of assistive tools.
However, the group interaction involved is often at a scale between the
small scales usually assumed in computational semantics or dialogue
modelling, and the very large scales usually studied in social networks.
The organisational nature also brings important factors that affect
language and the meaning expressed or understood – explicit or implicit
hierarchy, shared or disputed goals, and social groupings with competitive
or collaborative agendas – well known in other disciplines but not often
taken into account in computational semantics. The computational
linguistics community has looked at various relevant phenomena and tasks
(e.g., meeting summarization, intention detection, intention detection,
argument mining, agreement/disagreement detection, persuasiveness
detection), and some relevant datasets have been produced (e.g., the Enron
email dataset). However, there are still relatively few attempts and few
resources or approaches to semantics in organisational communication in
general. This workshop aims to fill this gap to model, analyse and
understand overall organisational communication, and encourage
collaboration between researchers from diverse backgrounds, including
computational linguistics, organisational psychology, and computational
social science.
Main topics:
We welcome work broadly in the area of natural language processing,
computational linguistics, computational social science, sociolinguistics,
organisational psychology, and related fields with the aim of better
understanding organisational communication. Cross-disciplinary
collaborations between computer scientists and other social scientists in
order to reach richer insights are especially welcome. We also encourage
contributions that address multilingual settings as well as low-resource
languages. The workshop topics include but are not limited to:
* Summarization of meetings and other organisational communication
* Models of argument, (dis)agreement and decision-making
* Analysis of influence, persuasiveness and power relations
* Effects of organisational culture and hierarchy
* Communication across different modalities and timescales
* Differences between organisational communication and other forms of
communication
* Datasets and annotation schemas for organisational communication
* Social network analysis in organisations as applied to communication
* Diachronic analysis of organisational communication
* Application and adaptation of NLP models to organisational communication.
Format:
Regular submissions (long and short)
Authors are invited to submit full papers of up to 8 pages of content and
short papers of up to 4 pages of content, with unlimited pages for
references. Accepted papers will be given an additional page of content to
address reviewer comments and will be published in the ACL Anthology.
Previously published papers cannot be accepted. Dual submissions are
allowed; papers that are currently undergoing review at other venues are
welcome but must declare this on submission.
Non-archival submissions
We welcome two types of non-archival submissions. First, you can submit an
extended abstract of work not published elsewhere. These can include
position papers, or early-stage work that would benefit from peer feedback.
Second, work previously accepted/published elsewhere, along with details
about the venue or journal where it is accepted, and a link to the archived
version, if available. In both cases there are no page limits, or
style/anonymity requirements, and the submissions will be reviewed only for
the fit to the workshop theme. Papers accepted as non-archival will be
given an opportunity to present the work at the workshop but will not be
published in the ACL Anthology (they will be available on the workshop
website).
Hackathon submissions
An active, experimentation-based track where hackathon-type online
activities precede the workshop, and teams/individuals present their work
in the workshop. The hackathon organisers will provide data, task
suggestions, and periodic feedback. Though, participants are free to work
on any relevant task or dataset during their hackathon project. Hackathon
activities are by design online, while the rest of the workshop will be in
person. Hackathon participants are invited (but not required) to submit a
system description paper (up to 4 pages + unlimited pages for references);
authors will be able to choose whether these are published in the ACL
anthology.
Journal special issue
After the workshop, we will explore the possibility of inviting selected
authors to submit a paper to a special issue of the Dialogue & Discourse
journal. The journal submissions would undergo further review, and the
paper should be substantially different from the original work.
Submission instructions:
Similar to IWCS, regular submissions should be fully anonymous to ensure
double-blind reviewing. All submissions should follow the IWCS conference
template (see https://iwcs2023.loria.fr/call-for-papers/)

This announcement contains the following: [1] Track description; [2] Topics
of interest; [3] Important dates; [4] Paper submission; [5] Track fees; [6]
Organizing Committee; [7] Program Committee and [8] Contacts.
[1] Track Description
The Track of Natural Language Processing, Text Mining and Applications (NLP-
TeMA 2023) is a forum for researchers working in Human Language
Technologies, i.e. Natural Language Processing (NLP), Computational
Linguistics (CL), Natural Language Engineering (NLE), Text Mining (TM),
Information Retrieval (IR), and related areas.
A huge amount of information is openly published every day, on many
different topics and written in natural language, thus offering new
insights and many opportunities for innovative applications of Human
Language Technologies.
Following advances in AI sub-fields such as NLP, Machine Learning (ML) and
Deep Learning (DL), NLP and TM are now even more valuable for bridging the
gap between language theories and effective use of natural language
contents, for harnessing the power of semi-structured and unstructured
data, and to enable important applications in real-world heterogeneous
environments. Both hidden and new knowledge can be discovered by using NLP
and TM methods, at multiple levels and in multiple dimensions, and often
with high commercial value.
Authors are invited to submit their papers on any of the issues identified
in section [2]. Submitted papers will be subject to a double-blind review
process and will be peer-reviewed by at least three members of the track
Program Committee. It is the responsibility of the authors to remove names
and affiliations from the submitted papers, and to take reasonable care to
assure anonymity during the review process. Accepted papers will be
included in the conference proceedings (a volume of Springer’s LNAI-Lecture
Notes in Artificial Intelligence), provided that at least one author is
registered in EPIA 2023 by the early registration deadline. EPIA 2023
proceedings are indexed in Thomson Reuters ISI Web of Science, Scopus, DBLP
and Google Scholar. Each accepted paper must be presented by one of the
authors in a track session.
The conference will grant the following awards:
* Best Paper Award, for the best research paper presented at the conference
* Best Student Paper Award, for the best research paper presented at the
conference where the first author is a student

Symposium: Corpus Approaches to Lexicogrammar (LxGr2023)
CALL FOR PAPERS
Extended deadline for abstract submission: 15 April 2023
The symposium will take place online on 7-8 July 2023.
Invited Speakers:
Gaëtanelle Gilquin<https://perso.uclouvain.be/gaetanelle.gilquin> (Université catholique de Louvain)
Thomas Herbst<https://www.angam.phil.fau.de/fields/engling/herbst/> (Friedrich-Alexander-Universität)
If you would like to present, send an abstract of 500 words (excluding references) to lxgr(a)edgehill.ac.uk<mailto:lxgr@edgehill.ac.uk>. Make sure that the abstract clearly specifies the research focus (research questions or hypotheses), the corpus, the methodology (techniques and metrics), the theoretical orientation, and the main findings. Abstracts will be double-blind reviewed, and decisions will be communicated within four weeks.
Full papers will be allocated 35 minutes (including 10 minutes for discussion).
Work-in-progress reports will be allocated 20 minutes (including 5 minutes for discussion).
There will be no parallel sessions.
Participation is free.
The focus of LxGr is the interaction of lexis and grammar. The focus is influenced by Halliday's view of lexis and grammar as "complementary perspectives" (1991: 32), and his conception of the two as notional ends of a continuum (lexicogrammar), in that "if you interrogate the system grammatically you will get grammar-like answers and if you interrogate it lexically you get lexis-like answers" (1992: 64).
