Language models And RePresentations (LARP) brings together researchers that explore how information is structured, encoded and used in computational language systems. We encourage submissions on both neural (sub-symbolic) and discrete (symbolic) representations from the fields of computational linguistics and artificial intelligence or their intersection. The conference is organised by the Centre for Linguistic Theory and Studies in Probability (CLASP, https://gu-clasp.github.io/), University of Gothenburg. The conference will be held between September 8 and 9 in Gothenburg, Sweden (on-site and hybrid). Topics of interest ---- We hope to see innovative work that considers neural and symbolic learning and processing in terms of different modelling perspectives. Papers are invited on the following topics as they relate to natural language: - Neuro-symbolic integration: novel hybrid frameworks combining symbolic representations with neural network learning for enhanced reasoning and natural language processing - Explainable machine learning: techniques that allow for better interpretability, transparency, and explainability of neural, symbolic and neuro-symbolic architectures - Logical constraints in neural networks: methods that use logical structures (e.g., knowledge bases, ontologies) for post-hoc or inherent explainability - Automated reasoning systems providing human-interpretable rationales for decisions - Symbolic planning and control in neural workflows - Application-driven scenarios (robots, autonomous systems) showcasing benefits of symbolic approaches - Techniques that integrate symbolic representations into text or multimodal generation - Approaches that enforce domain knowledge, consistency, or adherence to constraints in text and/or multimodal generation - Fine-tuning and in-context learning strategies that incorporate logical or rule-based knowledge This list is illustrative but is not intended to be exhaustive. Submission Requirements ---- **Archival track** Archival track will feature the following types of submissions to appear in conference proceedings: we accept long papers (max 8 pages) and short papers (max 4 pages). Long and short papers must describe substantial, original, and unpublished research. Supplementary materials, appendices, a section on limitations and ethical concerns do not count towards the page limit. Archival accepted papers will be published in the 2025 ACL Anthology as a CLASP Conference Proceedings. Papers should be electronically submitted via the OpenReview system at https://openreview.net/group?id=CLASP/LARP/2025/Conference.

CIRCE Online Seminar | 12/05/2025 | Dr. Ana Tankosic | "Intersectionality in translingual spaces: Migrant experiences from 'down-under'"
by Claudia Soria 29 Apr '25

29 Apr '25

*🎓 *We are happy to announce the next webinar in the CIRCE online seminar series organized by the CIRCE <https://www.circe-project.eu/> project in collaboration with DFCLAM University of Siena <https://www.dfclam.unisi.it/en>, H2IOSC <https://www.h2iosc.cnr.it/> project and CNR-ILC <https://www.ilc.cnr.it/en/>. *Dr. Ana Tankosić* /Curtin University, Australia/ */Intersectionality in Translingual Spaces: Migrant Experiences from 'Down-Under'/* 📅 *May 12, 2025* 🕓 *2:00 PM – 3:00 PM (CEST)* *Venue*: Online *Attendees*: Secondary school teachers, researchers, language instructors *Summary: *In spaces informed and characterised by Anglo-Western ideologies and discourses, migrants are exposed to overlapping forms of marginalisation where cultural and linguistic stereotypes coincide and blend with ethnic, racial, and gender stereotypes. In this presentation, I discuss how intersectionality is reflected in different forms of social stereotypes which attempt to subordinate, inferiorise, and judge translingual migrants in Australia. This discussion serves the purpose of uncovering underlying systemic and social disparities in Australia, as they are (in)advertently perpetuated and invigorated by a more dominant counterpart. *Bio*: Dr Ana Tankosić is a research fellow and sessional academic at Curtin University, Australia. Her research focuses on sociolinguistics of globalisation, transcultural identities, and migration discourses. She is a former Fulbright Visiting Student Researcher at Penn State University. Her co-edited volume, Becoming a Linguist, is recently published with Routledge, while her collaborative monograph, Linguistic Racism, is currently in preparation. Upcoming webinars: - Giuliana Regnoli (Monday, May 26, 2025) - Clara Molina (Monday, June 30, 2025) - Sender Dovchin (Monday, July 7, 2025) The seminar is free of charge, but participants must register. To access this and next events, you should create an account on theH2IOSC Training Environment <https://h2iosc-training-platform.ilc4clarin.ilc.cnr.it/registration>.

29 Apr '25

The recently funded ERC Consolidator project “Rise and Demise of Industrial Modernity”<https://cordis.europa.eu/project/id/101170823> (RiDe) at the University of Tartu (Estonia) is looking to fill 2 fully funded PhD positions and 1 postdoctoral position. The PhD position advertised here is broadly in computational social science, environmental/sustainability transitions studies, and focuses on applying ML and LLMs to large media text corpora. The project is based on the Deep Transitions framework (see here<https://doi.org/10.1016/j.respol.2018.03.009>, here<https://doi.org/10.1016/j.eist.2018.07.006> and here<https://www.cambridge.org/engage/coe/article-details/67a9e0a381d2151a02d8a3…>) from the sustainability transitions field. It seeks to develop a new theory about the acceleration, crisis and possible transformation of industrial modernity: a set of ideas, institutions and practices related to the natural environment and technoscience currently blocking the deep sustainability turn. The project is led by Laur Kanger<https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=wI2wzeoAAAAJ&hl=en&oi=ao>, Professor of Sustainability Transitions and co-author of the Deep Transitions framework. Expected PhD studies starting date: 1 September 2025 Duration of employment: 48 months (until 30.08.2029) Working time: 100% (40 hours per week) International application submission deadline: 15 May 2025 For applicants with an MA from an Estonian university: June 15 2025 We are seeking applicants with a Master’s degree or equivalent qualification with a background in one of the following fields: digital humanities, computational social science, data science, sustainability transitions studies, science and technology studies, innovation studies, sociology (e.g. economic, political, environmental, historical), environmental governance, political science, economics (e.g. economics of innovation, ecological economics), political science, history (e.g. economic, environmental, intellectual, science and technology), sustainability science (or a related field). Alternatively, a master’s degree in another field combined with a strong and proven interest in sustainability issues also constitutes a good fit. For more info on the positions, main tasks and requirements, see the links below. Topic: “Ideational continuities and ruptures of industrial modernity in G20 countries” The purpose of the PhD project is to map the long-term evolution of different ideas about environment and technoscience (e.g. belief in societal progress through science and technology, rising environmental awareness) in G20 countries from 1900 to 2025 based on digitized newspaper corpora and using state of the art machine learning methods, including large language models. More info and application details: https://euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/336902 Why study or work in Estonia? Estonia offers Nordic quality of life, a strong academic environment and convenient digitized services—all while maintaining a reasonable cost of living that supports comfortable student life. The University of Tartu, founded in 1632, ranks among the top 1% of the world’s most cited universities and actively fosters sustainability and intersectoral collaboration, having produced numerous successful startups.

-------------------------------------------------------------------- APOLOGIES FOR CROSS-POSTING -------------------------------------------------------------------- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ CLiC-it 2025 - Eleventh Italian Conference on Computational Linguistics ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 24 - 26 September 2025, Cagliari, Italy https://clic2025.unica.it/ Conference Announcement and First Call for Papers Over the years, CLiC-it has evolved into an important forum for the Italian community of researchers in Computational Linguistics (CL) and Natural Language Processing (NLP). CLiC-it aims to promote and disseminate high-quality, original research covering different aspects of automatic language processing, involving both written and spoken language. Furthermore, it seeks to showcase cutting-edge theoretical findings, experimental methodologies, technologies, and application perspectives. The spirit of the conference is inclusive. Recognizing the multifaceted nature of language phenomena and the need for interdisciplinary expertise, CLiC-it aims to bring together researchers from different fields including Computational Linguistics and Natural Language Processing, Linguistics, Cognitive Science, Machine Learning, Computer Science, Knowledge Representation, Information Retrieval, and Digital Humanities. CLiC-it welcomes contributions focusing on all languages, with a particular emphasis on Italian. CLiC-it 2025 will be held in Cagliari, from the 24th to the 26th of September. CLiC-it is organised by the Italian Association of Computational Linguistics (AILC -- http://www.ai-lc.it/). Conference topics ----------------------------- CLiC-it 2025 aims to have a broad technical program. Relevant topics for the conference include, but are not limited to (in alphabetical order): - Computational Historical Linguistics - Computational Social Science and Cultural Analytics - Dialogue and Interactive Systems - Discourse and Pragmatics - Ethics and NLP - Generation - Handwritten Text Recognition - Information Extraction - Information Retrieval and Text Mining - Interpretability and Analysis of Models for NLP - Language Grounding to Vision, Robotics and Beyond - Large Language Models - Linguistic Diversity - Linguistic Theories, Cognitive Modeling, and Psycholinguistics - Machine Learning for NLP - Machine Translation - Multilingualism and Cross-Lingual NLP - NLP Applications - NLP for the Humanities - Phonology, Morphology, and Word Segmentation - Pragmatics and Creativity - Question Answering - Resources and Evaluation - Semantics: Lexical, Sentence-level Semantics, Textual Inference, and Other Areas - Sentiment Analysis, Stylistic Analysis, and Argument Mining - Speech and Multimodality - Summarization - Syntax: Tagging, Chunking and Parsing Research Communications ---------------------------------- CLiC-it 2025 adopts a parallel submission policy for outstanding papers accepted in 2024 and 2025 by major publication venues, namely the major international CL conferences (workshops excluded) or international journals. These contributions can be submitted to CLiC-it 2025 as short research communications. Research communications will not be published in the conference proceedings, they serve primarily to promote the dissemination of high-quality research within the Italian CL community. Submitted research communications must be in the scope of the CLiC-it 2025 conference. The authors of papers that meet the above criteria are invited to submit a written (maximum) one-page abstract of the original paper, including the paper’s title and authors as well as a pointer to the original conference or journal where the paper was published. If needed, research communications will undergo a selection process overseen by the conference chairs. Since these papers have already been reviewed, the selection criteria will primarily consider their original publication venue. Priority will be granted to papers that align most closely with the conference program, ensuring a balanced representation across various conference topics. The research communication papers will be presented at the conference either orally or as a poster according to the number of submissions received. Paper Submission ----------------------- Submitted papers must describe substantial, original, completed, and unpublished work. Wherever appropriate, concrete evaluation and analysis should be included. CLiC-it 2025 allows for a multiple-submission policy. In case of acceptance of the paper in other venues, the authors must communicate this information to the CLiC-it 2025 Chairs as soon as possible. Papers may consist of at least six (6) and no more than eight (8) pages of content, and up to three (3) pages of references. Supplementary material is also allowed, but it should not exceed one (1) page in length. Authors are reminded that all relevant content should be included in the main text of the paper. Upon acceptance, final versions of papers will be given one additional page of content, so that reviewers’ comments can be taken into account. Papers will be evaluated according to the following criteria: - soundness of approach - relevance to computational linguistics - novelty and clarity of relation with related work - quality of presentation - quality of evaluation (if applicable) - verifiability and ability to replicate (if applicable) Papers can be either in English or Italian, with the abstract in English. Accepted papers will be published online and will be presented at the conference either orally or as a poster. Reviewing will NOT be blind, so there is no need to remove author information from manuscripts. The required template for CLiC-it submissions must be compatible with CEUR (https://ceur-ws.org/). You can download the conference-adapted version at the following links: LaTeX template https://clic2025.unica.it/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/CLiC-it-2025-template.… Word template https://clic2025.unica.it/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/CLiC_it_2025_template.… Should you encounter any issues with the compilation (as the CEUR template has historically presented some challenges and is not modifiable without risking exclusion from the proceedings), we provide a read-only Overleaf template: https://www.overleaf.com/read/hzyckyjzwhwb#06b27c This template can be accessed and cloned to help resolve any technical difficulties.

Dear all, We would like to remind you that the call for application to the European Summer University in Digital Humanities "Culture and Technology" 2025 to be held at the university Marie and Louis Pasteur in Besançon (France) from July 21 to August 2 is open up to May 18 via Conftool You can find here the updated list of workshops and lectures https://esudh.github.io/WorkshopsandLectures/ . Building on the spirit of previous editions in Leipzig and Cluj, the ESU in Besançon aims at being a space for interdisciplinary collaboration and opportunities for scholars and students in Humanities and therefore strengthening the community of practice already established in past years. The ESU is supported by DARIAH with 12 scholarships of 450 Euros each to partially cover the costs of registration, CLARIN and its trainers’ network and Humanistica. Thanks to the support of Transkribus, 10 scholarships of 3000 credits each will be awarded during the ESU to help participants developing their research. Besançon, a lively city of around 120 000 inhabitants and more than 25 000 students from all over the world, has a long tradition of teaching French to non-native speakers. Following the two weeks of the ESU, in the month of August, we will offer the possibility to attend for two to four weeks classes of French within the framework of our “French for DH” programme. Do not hesitate to contact us for any information you may need. Looking forward to meeting you in Besançon, The organizers
