𝗙𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗖𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗣𝗮𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀 - 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗽 𝗼𝗻 𝗟𝗮𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗹𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗟𝗼𝘄-𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗰𝗲 𝗟𝗮𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀 [Workshop website - https://loreslm.github.io/home] [CFP - https://loreslm.github.io/cfp] Neural language models have revolutionised natural language processing (NLP) and have provided state-of-the-art results for many tasks. However, their effectiveness is largely dependent on the pre-training resources. Therefore, language models (LMs) often struggle with low-resource languages in both training and evaluation. Recently, there has been a growing trend in developing and adopting LMs for low-resource languages. Supporting this important shift, LoResLM aims to provide a forum for researchers to share and discuss their ongoing work on LMs for low-resource languages. 𝗧𝗼𝗽𝗶𝗰𝘀 LoResLM 2026 invites submissions on a broad range of topics related to the development and evaluation of neural language models for low-resource languages. We welcome research that explores modalities beyond text and encourage work on low-resource dialects in addition to major language varieties. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: • Building language models for low-resource languages. • Adapting/extending existing language models/large language models for low-resource languages. • Corpora creation and curation technologies for training language models/large language models for low-resource languages. • Benchmarks to evaluate language models/large language models in low-resource languages. • Prompting/in-context learning strategies for low-resource languages with large language models. • Review of available corpora to train/fine-tune language models/large language models for low-resource languages. • Multilingual/cross-lingual language models/large language models for low-resource languages. • Multimodal language models/large language models for low-resource languages • Applications of language models/large language models for low-resource languages (i.e. machine translation, chatbots, content moderation, etc.) 𝗦𝘂𝗯𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗚𝘂𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀 We follow the EACL 2026 standards for submission format and guidelines.

SemEval-2026 Task 5 CfP: Rating Plausibility of Word Senses in Ambiguous Sentences through Narrative Understanding.
by Michael Roth 27 Oct '25

27 Oct '25

# Call for Participation We are delighted to announce SemEval-2026 Task 5: Rating Plausibility of Word Senses in Ambiguous Sentences through Narrative Understanding. Word Sense Disambiguation tasks commonly assume that only one word sense is "correct", but this does not always reflect how humans perceive meaning. Ambiguity, underspecification and subjective factors such as individual linguistic experience can influence which word senses are perceived as plausible in a given context. For these reasons, human intuitions and model predictions may frequently diverge. This shared task addresses this challenge using the AmbiStory dataset. The dataset consists of five-sentence English short stories, each containing a lexically ambiguous sentence with human plausibility judgements. Surrounding context may provide clues or influence how plausible different word senses appear. Example: > "The detectives followed the track." > Depending on the given context, either the rail track or the piece of evidence sense may be perceived as plausible. ## Task Given a short story with a lexically ambiguous sentence and a pair of candidate word senses, participating systems must predict the plausibility of each sense on a scale from 1 (implausible) to 5 (highly plausible). Systems will be evaluated based on two metrics: * Accuracy within standard deviation (SD): the proportion of predictions that fall within one standard deviation of the average human judgment. * Ranked correlation: the correlation between model predictions and aggregated human judgments. ## Participation Website and Data: https://nlu-lab.github.io/semeval.html Code: https://github.com/Janosch-Gehring/semeval26-05-scripts Registration and Submission: https://www.codabench.org/competitions/10877/ We invite researchers and students of all experience levels to participate in this task and help us disambiguate the world, story by story!
