Researchers and practitioners from all areas of IR are invited to submit workshop proposals for review. 2025 Format Workshops will be on-site and in person. All workshops will require at least one organizer to attend, as well as a (yet-to-be-determined) number of participants. More information at the SIGIR 2025 In-presence Policy <https://sigir2025.dei.unipd.it/> page. Important Dates for Workshop Proposals Time zone: Anywhere on Earth (AoE) - Proposal submission: January 9, 2025 - Proposal acceptance notification: February 6, 2025 - Individual workshop paper submission: April 23, 2025 - Tentative workshop overview camera ready: April 24, 2025 - Tentative workshop paper acceptance notification: May 21, 2025 - Workshop day: July 17, 2025 Topics of Interest Workshop topics typically match those identified in the SIGIR 2025 general call for contributions <https://sigir2025.dei.unipd.it/call-full-papers.html> (see, e.g., full papers); proposals on other topics related to IR are welcome. We encourage prospective workshop organizers to submit proposals for highly interactive workshops (either full-day or half-day) focusing on either in-depth analysis or broad-ranging approaches to information retrieval. The format of each workshop is to be determined by the organizers. We expect workshops to contain ample time for discussion and engagement for all participants – not just those presenting papers. Workshops fostering collaboration, discussion, group problem-solving, and community-building initiatives are particularly encouraged. Workshops focused solely on the presentation of papers in a “mini conference” format are discouraged. The organizers of approved workshops are expected to define the workshop’s focus, gather and review submissions, and decide on the final program content. Organizers (including co-organizers) are strongly encouraged to write an article for the ACM SIGIR Forum summarizing the event. At least one organizer is expected to attend the entire workshop. Submission Guidelines Workshop proposals, in no more than 4 pages, should include the following information: - Title - Motivation for the workshop, its appropriateness for SIGIR, its complementarity to the main SIGIR 2025 conference topics, and why it would be of interest to the IR community - Theme and purpose of the workshop - Format (half/full-day), planned activities, and a tentative schedule of events, including potential keynote or other speakers - Planned interaction and engagement: Describe how the workshop will be structured to encourage active discussions, idea exchange, and collaboration among participants. Detail how the organizers will create an interactive format, distinct from a "mini conference," such as breakout discussions, group exercises, and panels designed to deepen engagement with the topic. - Distinction from main conference topics: Outline how the workshop theme covers areas complementary to or not typically discussed in the main conference program, highlighting emerging, niche, or interdisciplinary topics that could provide fresh perspectives to participants. - Audience reach: Describe the potential to attract new attendees who may not traditionally participate in SIGIR, including practitioners, academics from related fields, or industry specialists with unique insights or applications in information retrieval. - For each organizer, an indication of their likelihood of attending onsite - Special requirements and their importance to the workshop’s success, along with a contingency plan if requirements are unmet (such as potential last-minute organizers to ensure the workshop runs onsite) - List of organizers with a short biographical sketch of each organizer, describing relevant qualifications and experience - Names of potential program committee (PC) members – if a PC is required (any workshop involving written papers should have a PC) - Selection process for participants and/or presenters - Expected target audience and how the workshop will be advertised to reach them - Related workshops (if applicable): if previously held at SIGIR or another conference, organizers should briefly describe past attendance, outcomes, and the need for another workshop Workshop proposals should be prepared in the current ACM two-column conference format. Suitable LaTeX, Word, and Overleaf <https://www.overleaf.com/gallery/tagged/acm-official> templates are available from the ACM website <https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template> (use the “sigconf” proceedings template).

COLING 2025 Tutorial: Bridging Linguistic Theory & AI - Unlocking Usage-Based Learning in Humans & Machines (Call for Participation)
by claire.n.bonial.civ＠army.mil 07 Dec '24

07 Dec '24

We’re delighted to invite you to the on-site tutorial at COLING 2025 that will discuss the latest work on bridging the worlds of linguistic theory with Large Language Models: “Bridging Linguistic Theory and AI: Usage-Based Learning in Humans and Machines.” For More information, visit: https://sites.google.com/view/linguistic-theory-and-ai/ The takeaways of this tutorial, which will be held in-person, will be an overview of the shared and divergent aspects of human and machine usage and data-driven learning, outlined from the theoretical perspective of usage-based psycholinguistic theory, with an emphasis on how this can shed light on the capabilities and limitations of LLMs, including multimodal models. This will serve as the bedrock for guiding participants and the NLP community towards more informed evaluation of large, pre-trained models, as well as energising solutions drawing upon the multi-modal information and linguistic theory that enriches language and many dimensions of interaction. Background: Unlike our past NLP tools, such as syntactic parsers and automatic semantic role labelling, LLMs lack grounding in linguistic theory. Instead, their development is based on the encoder-decoder architecture, which was originally designed for sequence- to-sequence tasks, specifically translation. This dichotomy impedes methods for evaluating LLMs, as their performance on meta-linguistic tasks, such as semantic role labelling, which previously served as benchmarks for the individual components in an NLP pipeline, are poor predictors of their fluency on downstream applications. However, the fact that LLMs, designed primarily to meet information-theoretic needs, can capture any linguistic information at all is fascinating. Additionally, it offers a novel foundation for exploring what can be achieved through exposure to information alone. Therefore, it has been compelling to turn to usage-based theories of language, such as Construction Grammar, to establish experimentally validated structures of language that speakers of a given language consistently recognise and are able to generalise over. We can then compare such structures to the linguistic structure that we can probe for within LLMs. For More information, visit: https://sites.google.com/view/linguistic-theory-and-ai/ We look forward to seeing you at COLING 2025 in January. On behalf of, Claire Bonial, Harish Tayyar Madabushi, Nikhil Krishnaswamy, James Pustejovsky

Workshop on Diversity in Large Speech and Language Models
by Hillmann, Stefan, Dr. 06 Dec '24

06 Dec '24

Dear all, Please find in the following the CoP for the workshop on Diversity in Large Speech and Language Models Date: 20 February 2025 Place: Humboldt-Universität Berlin, Dorotheenstraße 24, Berlin, Germany Machine learning techniques have conquered many different tasks in speech and natural language processing, such as speech recognition, information extraction, text and speech generation, and human machine interaction using natural language or speech (chatbots). Modern techniques typically rely on large models for representing general knowledge of one or several languages (Large Language Models, LLMs), or for representing speech and general audio characteristics. These models have been trained with large amounts of speech and language data, typically including web content. When humans interact with such technologies, the effectiveness of the interaction will be influenced by how far humans make use of the same type of language the models have been trained on or, in other words, if the models are able to generalize to the language used by humans when interacting with the technology. This may lead to some gradual forms of adaptation in human speech and language production, and users who do not adapt may be excluded from efficient use of such technologies. On top of this, as commercial model development follows market needs, under-represented languages and dialects/sociolects may decrease in terms of priorities. Furthermore, for many lesser spoken languages the necessary data is not available, which will worsen a digital divide in speech and language technology usage. The workshop sets out to discuss this problem based on scientific contributions from the perspective of computer science and linguistics (including computational linguistics and NLP). Topics which we aim to address include but are not limited to: User diversity: Which aspects of human speech and language production affect the performance of large foundation models? In which way, and for which tasks? Language use: How are large language models able to cope with different languages, dialects, and sociolects? How do they deal with code switching? Human adaptation: How does the use of large language models affect language comprehension, as well as speech and language production? Which alignment effects occur, and in which time spans? Model adaptation: How do models need to be designed to better cope with speech and language diversity? How do training and finetuning affect model performance? Inclusion: What data and technologies are necessary to better cope with diversity in large speech and language models? The workshop will consist of a number of oral presentations and discussion panels. Accepted speakers are invited to submit a short or long paper which will be published online after the workshop.
