MentalRiskES@IberLEF2025: Early detection of mental risk
by María Dolores Molina González 31 Mar '25

31 Mar '25

*Registration closes today* *!!* ****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.

EXTENDED DEADLINE: 3rd TRR 318 Conference: Contextualizing Explanations (ContEx25)
by cimiano＠cit-ec.uni-bielefeld.de 28 Mar '25

28 Mar '25

DEADLINE EXTENSION: 3rd TRR 318 Conference: Contextualizing Explanations (ContEx25) http://contex2025.net/ As AI systems are used more and more in high-stakes domains, it also becomes ever-more important to make AI systems transparent to ensure meaningful human control and empower human users to contest or override AI-based decisions. Without sufficient transparency, increasingly complex and autonomous AI systems may leave users feeling overwhelmed and out of control, which is legally and ethically unacceptable, especially in the context of high-stakes decisions. For the users to feel empowered rather than out of control, explanations need to be relevant, providing sufficient information on which basis an output can be contested or challenged. It has been increasingly noted by the XAI community that no one explanation can fit all needs. Further, recent approaches have advocated for a more participative approach to XAI in which users are not only involved but can directly shape and guide the explanations given by a certain AI System. The 3rd TRR 318 Conference: Contextualizing Explanations is an international and interdisciplinary conference focusing on the question how explanations can be contextualized to increase their relevance and empower users. Key research questions that we want to explore during the conference include: How do contextual variables influence the effectiveness of explanations? What are the relevant context factors to be taken into account in adapting an explanation to specific domains, users, or situations? How can context be represented algorithmically to support contextual adaptation of XAI explanations? What new architectures or approaches in XAI support the dynamic adaptation of explanations with respect to changing user needs? How can user modelling support a more personalized explanation process? In which ways can the dynamics of context be modelled? How can the suitability of contextually adapted explanations be studied / validated / evaluated? Which explanation processes are particularly suitable for which context? Which context-specific outcomes are influenced by explanations? How can XAI empower users across diverse contexts to make informed decisions and effectively interact with AI systems? What constitutes a useful taxonomy for categorizing contexts in which explanations are provided? What are the various contexts in which explanations are provided and utilized? The 3rd TRR318 Conference: Contextualizing Explanations invites contributions from a wide range of disciplines (computational but also human/social science) seeking to contribute to advancing research on how explanations can be contextually adapted. We invite interested participants to submit a two page abstract (+ references) using the LNCS Springer template via Easychair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=contex25 The abstracts will be peer-reviewed and appear as Proceedings published by Bielefeld University Press.

[Deadline in 2 weeks] CfP: 4th ACM International Workshop on Multimedia AI against Disinformation
by stanciu.cristi12＠gmail.com 28 Mar '25

28 Mar '25

4th ACM International Workshop on Multimedia AI against Disinformation (MAD’25) ACM International Conference on Multimedia Retrieval ICMR'25 Chicago, USA, June 30 - July 3, 2025 https://www.mad2025.aimultimedialab.ro/ https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=mad2025 *** Call for papers *** ************************ * Paper submission due: April 10, 2025 * Acceptance notification: April 29, 2025 * Camera-ready papers due: May 5, 2025 * Workshop @ACM ICMR 2025: June 30, 2025 Modern communication does not rely anymore solely on mainstream media like newspapers or television, but rather takes place over social networks, in real-time, and with live interactions among users. The speedup of distribution and the amount of information available, however, also led to an increased amount of misleading content, disinformation and propaganda. Conversely, the fight against disinformation, in which news agencies and NGOs (among others) take part on a daily basis to avoid the risk of citizens' opinions being distorted, became even more crucial and demanding, especially for what concerns sensitive topics such as politics, health and religion. Disinformation campaigns are leveraging, among others, AI-based tools for content generation and modification: hyper-realistic visual, speech, textual and video content have emerged under the collective name of "deepfakes", and more recently with the use of Large Language Models (LLMs) and Large Multimodal Models (LMMs), undermining the perceived credibility of media content. It is, therefore, even more crucial to counter these advances by devising new robust and trustworthy AI tools able to detect the presence of inaccurate, synthetic and manipulated content, accessible to journalists and fact-checkers. Future multimedia disinformation detection research relies on the combination of different modalities and on the adoption of the latest advances of deep learning approaches and architectures. These raise new challenges and questions that need to be addressed to reduce the effects of disinformation campaigns. The workshop, in its fourth edition, welcomes contributions related to different aspects of AI-powered disinformation detection, analysis and mitigation. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Disinformation detection in multimedia content (e.g., video, audio, texts, images) - Multimodal verification methods - Synthetic and manipulated media detection - Multimedia forensics - Disinformation spread and effects in social media - Analysis of disinformation campaigns in societally-sensitive domains - Robustness of media verification against adversarial attacks and real-world complexities - Fairness and non-discrimination of disinformation detection in multimedia content - Explaining disinformation detection results to non-expert users - Temporal and cultural aspects of disinformation - Dataset sharing and governance in AI for disinformation - Datasets for disinformation detection and multimedia verification - Open resources, e.g., datasets, software tools - Large Language Models for analyzing and mitigating disinformation campaigns - Large Multimodal Models for media verification - Multimedia verification systems and applications - System fusion, ensembling and late fusion techniques - Benchmarking and evaluation frameworks *** Submission guidelines *** When preparing your submission, please adhere strictly to the ACM ICMR 2025 instructions, to ensure the appropriateness of the reviewing process and inclusion in the ACM Digital Library proceedings. The instructions are available here: https://mad2025.aimultimedialab.ro/submissions/. *** Organizing committee *** Dan-Cristian Stanciu (National University of Science and Technology Politehnica Bucharest, Romania) Roberto Caldelli (CNIT and Mercatorum University, Italy) Milica Gerhardt (Fraunhofer IDMT, Germany) Bogdan Ionescu (National University of Science and Technology Politehnica Bucharest, Romania) Giorgos Kordopatis-Zilos (Czech Technical University in Prague, Czechia) Symeon Papadopoulos (CERTH-ΙΤΙ, Greece) Adrian Popescu (CEA LIST, France) Vera Schmitt (Technical University Berlin, Germany) The workshop is supported under the following projects: (i) UEFISCDI DeteRel SOL12/2024 Detection of relationships between entities in unstructured and structured data sets (https://deterel.aimultimedialab.ro/), (ii) AI4Debunk (https://ai4debunk.eu/), (iii) vera.ai “VERification Assisted by Artificial Intelligence” (https://www.veraai.eu/), and (iv) News-Polygraph (https://news-polygraph.com/).
