First Call for papers - DeriMo 2023 The Fourth International Workshop on Resources and Tools for Derivational Morphology - DeriMo 2023 Dubrovnik, Croatia 5-6 October 2023 Website: https://derimo.ffzg.unizg.hr/ The Fourth International Workshop on Resources and Tools for Derivational Morphology will be held in Dubrovnik, Croatia, on October 05 and 06, 2023, at the Centre for Advanced Academic Studies (CAAS), Dubrovnik, Croatia. The 2023 edition of the workshop will continue the discussion on … [View More]language resources and tools for derivational morphology (and, more generally, on word formation) started in DeriMo 2017 (Milan, Italy) and continued in DeriMo 2019 (Prague, Czech Republic) and DeriMo 2021 (Nancy, France). DeriMo 2023 will provide an international platform for the presentation of new developments in existing word-formation resources and for the introduction of recently created ones. A debate is expected on all aspects of the creation of these resources, from technical solutions to linguistic decisions on which word-formation processes and how they are modeled in the resource. DeriMo 2023 wants to cover modern as well as ancient languages and welcomes approaches with a potentially multi-lingual focus. The availability of appropriate tools is considered essential not only for resource development but also for the potential use of word-formation data in both Natural Language Processing and linguistic descriptions. Another goal of DeriMo 2023 is to bring the state-of-the-art approaches to modelling word-formation closer to current linguistic accounts of word formation. Presentations of any type of linguistic research into word formation are expected to contribute to a discussion on usage and usability of available resources and tools. Linguistic insights into the phenomena that are modelled in the word-formation resources may indicate directions of future research, whether with language-specific, cross-lingual, multi-lingual, or typological perspectives. Conference topics DeriMo 2023 aims to cover a wide range of topics. Submissions are invited for presentations featuring high-quality, previously unpublished research, both completed and ongoing, with an emphasis on novel approaches, methods, ideas, and perspectives, whether descriptive, theoretical, formal or computational. In particular, the topics to be addressed in the workshop include (but are not limited to) the following: - language resources for word-formation either of individual languages, or with a multi-lingual focus, - representation of word-formation processes in the resources (models based on base-derivative pairs, paradigmatic models, or other representations), - enhancement of word-formation resources with other features (e.g. semantic categories in affixation, classification of compounds), - linking word-formation resources with other types of annotation (e.g. syntactic, semantic), - application of (semi-)automatic methods in modelling word formation, - tools for creating, searching etc. of word-formation resources, - data-based linguistic research in any aspect of word-formation (of individual languages, with contrastive or comparative focus, diachronic perspectives etc.), - theoretical accounts of word-formation issues. Invited Speaker Stela Manova (University of Vienna, Austria) Submissions We invite you to submit long abstracts describing original, unpublished research related to the topics of the workshop. Abstracts should not exceed 5 pages (references included). The language of the workshop is English. All abstracts must be submitted in well-checked English. Abstracts should be submitted in PDF format only. Submissions have to be made via the EasyChair page of the workshop at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=derimo2023.

[FinNLP@IJCAI-2023] Second Call for Paper and ESG Shared Task Participants
by CHUNG-CHI CHEN 19 Apr '23

19 Apr '23

Dear colleagues, This year, FinNLP-2023 will be in conjunction with IJCAI-2023 from 19th-25th August 2023, Macao. This year, we organize a Joint Workshop of The 5th Financial Technology And Natural Language Processing (*FinNLP*) and 2nd *Multimodal AI For Financial Forecasting* (Muffin). Thus, papers related to NLP or multimodal AI in finance are welcome. This year, we have a shared task related to *multilingual ESG issue identification*. Registration is open now, and the dataset will be … [View More]released soon. Please refer to our website for more details - FinNLP-2023: https://sites.google.com/nlg.csie.ntu.edu.tw/finnlp-2023/home *Submission Deadline: April 26, 2023* Accepted papers proceedings will be published at ACL Anthology. Best Regards, FinNLP and Muffin Organizers FinNLP-MUFFIN-2023: The Joint Workshop of the 5th Financial Technology and Natural Language Processing (FinNLP) and 2nd Multimodal AI For Financial Forecasting (MUFFIN) IJCAI-2023 Macao, August 19-25, 2023 Conference website https://finnlp-muffin-ijcai23.github.io/ Submission link https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=finnlpmuffin2023 Submission deadline April 26, 2023 *About The FinNLP Workshop* The aim of this workshop is to provide a forum where international participants share knowledge on applying NLP to the FinTech domain. Recently, analyzing documents related to finance and economics has attracted much attention in the AI community. In the financial field, FinTech is a new industry that focuses on improving financial activity with technology. Thus, in order to bridge the gap between the NLP research and the financial applications, we organize FinNLP workshop series. One of the expected accomplishments of FinNLP is to introduce insights from the financial domain to the NLP community. With the sharing of the researchers in FinNLP, the challenging problems of blending FinTech and NLP will be identified, and the future research direction will be shaped. That can broaden the scope of this interdisciplinary research area. *About The Muffin Workshop* The Workshop aims to explore recent advances and challenges of multimodal AI for finance. Financial forecasting is an essential task that helps investors make sound investment decisions and wealth creation. With increasing public interest in trading stocks, cryptocurrencies, bonds, commodities, currencies, crypto coins and non-fungible tokens (NFTs), there have been several attempts to utilize unstructured data for financial forecasting. Unparalleled advances in multimodal deep learning have made it possible to utilize multimedia such as textual reports, news articles, streaming video content, audio conference calls, user social media posts, customer web searches, etc for identifying profit creation opportunities in the market. E.g., how can we leverage new and better information to predict movements in stocks and cryptocurrencies well before others? However, there are several hurdles towards realizing this goal - (1) large volumes of chaotic data, (2) combining text, audio, video, social media posts, and other modalities is non-trivial, (3) long context of media spanning multiple hours, days or even months, (4) user sentiment and media hype-driven stock/crypto price movement and volatility, (5) difficulties with traditional statistical methods (6) misinformation and non-interpretability of financial systems leading to massive losses and bankruptcies. At the IJCAI-2023 Joint Workshop of the 5th Financial Technology and Natural Language Processing (FinNLP) and 2nd Multimodal AI For Financial Forecasting (MUFFIN), we aim to bring bring together researchers from natural language processing, computer vision, speech recognition, machine learning, statistics and quantitative trading communities to expand research on the intersection of AI and finance.Please select a suitable track (“NLP” or “Multimodal”) for best considerations and reviewer matching.We will also organize 2 shared tasks in this workshop – (1) ESG Issue Identification (2) Price and Volatility Prediction From Conference Call Videos. Submission Guidelines Papers submitted to the main track must be formatted according to ACL Guidelines <https://acl-org.github.io/ACLPUB/formatting.html> - *Long Paper*: May consist of up to 8 pages of content, plus unlimited pages for references and appendix. - *Short Paper and Demo Paper*: May consist of up to 4 pages of content, plus unlimited references and appendix. 1. The reviewing process will be double-blind for Long and Short Paper, and single-blind for Demo Paper. Submissions must be in electronic form using the FinNLP-2023 paper submission link above. 2. *No Show Policy*: At least one author of each accepted paper *must* travel to the IJCAI venue in person. Papers with “No Show” will be redacted. Authors will be required to agree to this requirement at the time of submission.

2nd Call for Participation: DisCoTEX @ EVALITA 2023
by Dominique Brunato 18 Apr '23

18 Apr '23

[Apologies for cross-posting] *************************** Second Call for Participation **************************** *TASK*: Assessing DIScourse COherence in Italian TEXts (DisCoTEX) @ EVALITA 2023 *Info*: https://sites.google.com/view/discotex/home *Final Workshop*: September 7th-8th, 2023, Parma, Italy We invite interested parties from academia and industry to participate in the *DisCoTEX Task*, which will be held in the context of Evalita 2023 <https://www.evalita.it/campaigns/… [View More]evalita-2023/>. DisCoTEX is the first shared task focused on modeling discourse coherence for Italian real-word texts. Coherence is a key property of any well-organized text and it plays a fundamental role in human discourse processing as well as in a number of NLP applications. Inspired by previous literature on coherence modeling, the DisCoTEX task will be articulated into two subtasks: 1. Last sentence classification: this is conceived as a binary classification task. Specifically, given a short textual passage and an individual sentence, participants will be asked to predict whether the sentence follows or not, thus joining it to the passage gives out a coherent or incoherent passage. 2. Human score prediction: this is conceived as a regression task in which participants will be asked to predict the average coherence score assigned by human raters to short passages (either in their original or modified version). Participants are free to participate in either one of them or both. More details about the task definition, source data and evaluation are available at the task website <https://sites.google.com/view/discotex/home>. Given the novelty of the task and the crucial role that coherence modeling plays in a variety of application scenarios, we expect to attract groups from communities working on distinct fields, such as automatic essay scoring, readability assessment and document summarization. Moreover, we hope that beyond the competition, the task would rise the interest of scholars working on theoretical models of coherence from a linguistic and a cognitive perspective, as well as those involved in the interpretability of current language models based on deep learning networks. ----------------------- Important Dates ----------------------- 7th February 2023: training data available to participants 2nd – 9 May 2023: test data available (evaluation window starts) 30th May 2023: results notification to participants 14th June 2023: technical report from participants due to task organizers 28th June 2023: final reports from task organizers due to EVALITA chairs 10th July 2023: review deadline 25th July 2023: camera ready version deadline 7th-8th September 2023: EVALITA workshop in Parma Updates will be made available at the Evalita 2023 website, check it often. ---------------- Organizers ---------------- Dominique Brunato* Davide Colla** Felice Dell'Orletta* Irene Dini* Daniele Paolo Radicioni** Andrea Amelio Ravelli*** * ItaliaNLP Lab, Istituto di Linguistica Computazionale "Antonio Zampolli" (ILC-CNR), Pisa ** Dipartimento di Informatica, Università degli Studi di Torino *** Università di Bologna, Bologna ---------------------------------------------------------------- Contacts:*discotex.evalita2023@gmail.com* ----------------------------------------------------------------* * __ Feel free to contact us for further information!
