IndiREAD Workshop – 3rd Call for Papers
by Iza Skrjanec 30 Jun '25

30 Jun '25

IndiREAD Workshop 2025: 3rd Call for Papers Saarbrücken, Germany, November 26-27, 2025 IndiREAD is a workshop jointly organized by the ERC Project "Individualized Interaction in Discourse" IDDISC [1] and the MultiplEYE COST [2] action "Enabling multilingual eye-tracking data collection for human and machine language processing research". While experimental research in reading has a long tradition in identifying key factors that influence reading patterns--including text properties such as font difficulty, word and structure frequency, word predictability, and dependency length--recent studies have emphasized the importance of individual variability in reading behaviour (e.g., Haeuser & Kray, 2024; Kuperman et al., 2018; Nicenboim et al., 2016; Staub, 2021). This work has linked individual variability in reading patterns to differences in working memory capacity, reading skills, linguistic experience, and domain expertise among readers. This informs our understanding of how text characteristics and individual reader attributes interact to shape eye movements during reading. IndiREAD aims to bring together researchers interested in investigating individual differences in reading using both experimental and computational approaches. This workshop will focus on methods such as eye-tracking, self-paced reading, and the Maze task, with particular interest in how reading behaviour is correlated with individual differences. We also encourage submissions of computational models for eye movements or reading behavior that shed light on the mechanisms behind these differences. The goal is to foster collaboration between experimental and computational researchers to better understand individual variability among readers. We especially welcome submissions of reading time experiments and modelling of languages beyond English. The IndiREAD Workshop invites submissions of abstracts addressing the following questions:  * How do individual differences impact the way people read? * How do reading patterns vary across different languages, particularly in bilinguals? * How do reading patterns change across the lifespan? * Which individual difference measures are most suitable for capturing variability in reading patterns? * How can we evaluate psycholinguistic theories of reading and sentence processing across languages? * How can computational models account for individual differences in reading? * How does text adaptation influence reading patterns and comprehension among different individuals? * What statistical methods are best suited for reliably identifying latent groups and relating individual differences to reading performance? Workshop dates: November 26-27, 2025 Workshop format: The workshop will be held in-person in Saarbrücken, Germany. It will feature presentations from invited speakers, as well as contributions based on workshop submissions. The format of the presentations (oral or poster) will be determined based on the number of submissions we receive. Submission deadline: July 23, 2025. Submissions: The abstracts must not exceed 1000 words for the text (excl. captions), 10000 characters for references, and a maximum of 2 tables or figures. Abstracts should be submitted in PDF format, with 2.54 cm margins on all sides and 12 point font size, single-spaced. Please indicate up to three appropriate keywords for your abstract, which will be used for session planning. Abstracts must be written in English and should include a clear title but no information revealing the author(s). We welcome submissions for work that is being considered by other conferences, workshops, or journals. Templates for formatting in LaTeX and Word are provided on the conference website. Submission platform: https://openreview.net/group?id=IndiREAD/2025 Volunteer reviewers: We also invite all interested parties with relevant research experience to volunteer to help review abstracts for the workshop. All reviewers should hold a PhD.

[CfP] Second CfP for LowResNLP: Workshop on Advancing NLP for Low-Resource Languages @ RANLP 2025 (Varna, Bulgaria)
by Simon Ostermann 27 Jun '25

27 Jun '25

Dear colleagues, We are pleased to announce the second call for papers of the *Workshop on Advancing NLP for Low-Resource Languages (LowResNLP) at RANLP 2025* The most important information at a glance: 🗓️ Deadline: July 15 (NEW), Workshop: Sep 11-13 📍 Varna, Bulgaria 🌐 https://lrlnlp.github.io/website/ Despite rapid progress in Natural Language Processing (NLP), the benefits of recent advances - especially large language models (LLMs) - remain unevenly distributed. While high-resource languages like English, French, and Chinese have seen significant performance gains, low-resource languages continue to face substantial challenges across core NLP tasks such as machine translation, sentiment analysis, named entity recognition (NER), and part-of-speech tagging. These disparities arise from a combination of factors: the scarcity of high-quality training data, limited linguistic resources, and a lack of community involvement in data collection and model development. As a result, many languages, particularly African, Indigenous, and minority languages, remain underrepresented in both academic research and deployed NLP systems. LowResNLP is a workshop dedicated to addressing these challenges by fostering research, collaboration, and discussion around methods, resources, and evaluation practices specifically designed for low-resource languages. LowResNLP seeks to actively contribute to the field by inviting submissions that specifically address the unique challenges and opportunities involved in working with low-resource languages. The workshop welcomes a broad range of topics, including but not limited to: * Language models and large language models for low-resource languages * Corpora creation and curation technologies for low-resource languages * Evaluation benchmarks for language models in low-resource languages * Language models and resources for low-resource languages in Spain * Machine/pivot translation for low-resource languages * Fairness in resources/models for low-resource languages * Prompting learning strategies for large language models * Transfer learning and Crosslingual approaches for low-resource NLP * Massively multilingual approaches to Low-Resource NLP Important Dates: NEW Workshop paper submission deadline: 15 July 2025 (AoE) Workshop paper acceptance notification: 31 July 2025 Workshop paper camera-ready versions: 30 August 2025 Workshop camera-ready proceedings ready: 8 September 2025 Workshops: 11-13 September 2025 Submission formats: We invite the submission of both full papers and short papers. Full papers should not exceed 8 pages (plus unlimited number of pages for references and ethics/broader impact statement).
