25 Apr '25

*apologies for cross-postings* === Workshop SIR === Atelier sur les Avancées en AMR et en Analyse Sémantiques SIR@IXCS2025 - Düsseldorf - September 24 2025 ================================= https://team.inria.fr/semagramme/first-workshop-on-semantics-for-interdisci… https://openreview.net/group?id=inria.fr/INRIA/S%C3%A9magramme/2025/SIR01 ================================= In recent years, Natural Language Processing (NLP) has increasingly intersected with the humanities and social sciences, offering new methodologies for analyzing textual data, interpreting meaning, and modelling (IF WE WANT BRITISH SPELLING, WE MIGHT NOT?) language-based phenomena. The potential for multi-disciplinary research using NLP methods is particularly great in computational semantics (CS, as its ability to process and represent meaning opens up innovative pathways for researchers in history, philosophy, literary studies, political science, etc. This workshop aims to explore how semantic models and tools can be leveraged to tackle traditional and emerging questions in the Humanities in a broader sense (Social Sciences, Law, Economics, Management, Literature, Languages, Art, …). A major theme of SIR is the role of semantics in NLP applied to the humanities (both statistical and symbolic approaches). === Topics to Explore === • CS and the humanities: issues, tools and applications. • Quantitative and qualitative approaches as a breakthrough in the Humanities • NLP transforming humanities issues • Contributions and limitations for understanding meaning • Links between formal semantics and neural models • Ambiguity, polyphony and interpretation in theHumanities • Ethics and bias in semantic modeling • Interdisciplinary dialogue between AI, NLP and Humanities === Dates === • Deadline : July 14th (anywhere on earth) • Notification : August 25th (anywhere on earth) • Camera Ready : September 10th (anywhere on earth) • Workshop : September 24th (anywhere on earth) === Submission Information === Papers should describe original research and must not exceed 4 pages (with an extra page in the camera ready version for accepted papers). Papers should be submitted no later than 14 July 2025 (anywhere on earth). Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings in the ACL Anthology. For inclusion in the proceedings, at least one author must register to the conference and present the paper in person. Submissions should be fully anonymous to ensure double-blind reviewing. === Submission === https://openreview.net/group?id=inria.fr/INRIA/S%C3%A9magramme/2025/SIR01 === Style Files === The workshop follow the IWCS 2025 template see the workshop web page. === Organizers === Maxime Amblard, Université de Lorraine Ellen Breitholtz, Gothenburg University === Contact === maxime.amblard(a)univ-lorraine.fr and ellen.breitholtz(a)ling.gu.se

Initially, we used them to communicate with one another. Later, to communicate with computers. And more recently, with the advent of networks, we found a way to make computers communicate between themselves. All these different forms of communication use languages, different languages, but that still share many similarities. In SLATE we are interested in discussing these languages. Keynote Speakers * Pablo Gamallo, CiTIUS / Universidade de Santiago de Compostela. Large Language Models for the Galician-Portuguese Diasystem. * Pedro Rangel Henriques, Algoritmi / Universidade do Minho. An ontology for the Language Domain. * Paulo Quaresma, VISTA Lab / Algoritmi / Universidade de Évora. Agentic AI: state of the art, challenges and limitations. SLATE 2025 Chairs: Jorge Baptista and José Barateiro (University of Algarve, Portugal) Being languages such a broad subject, SLATE is organized in *three main tracks*: *HHL Track: Processing Human-Human Languages* HHL provides a forum for discussing research projects and ideas related to natural language processing and its industrial applications. *HCL Track: Processing Human-Computer Languages* HCL is a forum where researchers, developers, educators exchange ideas and information on the latest academic or industrial work on language design, processing, assessment and applications. *CCL Track: Processing Computer-Computer Languages* The CCL Track aims to facilitate discussions on data representation languages, its applications, and related technologies. Topics from each track include: *HHL Track: Processing Human-Human Languages* Computational morphology, syntax and semantics; Machine translation and tools for computer assisted translation; Computational terminology and lexicography; Speech synthesis and understanding; Information retrieval and extraction; Automatic question answering; Corpus linguistics; Language Resources and Evaluation; Public tools and resources for NLP; Statistical Methods applied to NLP; Language teaching support tools; Sentiment Analysis, Opinion and Argument Mining; Natural Language Generation, Summarization and Simplification; Dialogue and Interactive Systems; Ethics and NLP; Language Modeling/Large Language Models; Machine Learning for CL/NLP; Offensive/Hate speech detection and analysis; Applications (BioNLP and eHealth, NLP for legal purposes, Social Media and Journalism, etc.); Tagging, Chunking, Syntax and Parsing. *HCL Track: Processing Human-Computer Language* Languages and grammars design, specification and quality; Programming languages implementation; Visual Languages and Program visualization; Domain-Specific Languages design and implementation; Programming, refactoring and debugging environments; Dynamic and static analysis; Program slicing; Program comprehension; Compilation and interpretation techniques; Code generation and optimization; Novel language constructs and their implementation; Debugging and profiling tools; Dynamic languages; Software quality and security; Software reverse engineering; Software Forensics; Plagiarism Detection. *CCL Track: Processing Computer-Computer Languages* IoT data protocols; Semantic Web and data standards; Ontologies and knowledge representation; Big Data and NoSQL Databases; Data interchange and storage formats; HTML5 and web formatting; Industry-specific interoperability standards; APIs and service integration; Data and graph visualization languages; Cloud computing models - PaaS, SaaS, IaaS; Edge and Pervasive computing; Multi-agent systems; E-learning standards and interoperability; Cybersecurity protocols and solutions; Cyber-physical systems; Network connectivity and infrastructure. *Contributions* Full papers - 8 to 14 pages, presented in 20+5 minutes, complete work, including a validation or discussion. Short papers - 6 to 8 pages, presented in 10+5 minutes, ongoing work, well anchored in the literature, but not yet fully validated. Submitted papers will be reviewed through a rigorous double-blind process, involving at least three expert reviewers. Each submission will be assessed based on its originality, relevance to the symposium tracks, methodological rigor, clarity of presentation, and potential impact on research and practice. Authors are encouraged to carefully anonymize their submissions to ensure the integrity of the review process. SLATE 2025 is committed to fostering diversity and inclusivity and welcomes submissions from underrepresented groups in academia and industry. All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings, under an ISBN reference, on digital support. They will also integrate the OASIcs series.

Nevertheless, organizers are specially interested in papers touching more than one of the three main tracks. Submissions that explore intersections between HHL, HCL, and CCL, such as NLP-driven programming environments or semantic web applications, are highly encouraged. Both standard and short papers should be written in English, using the OASIcs template. For standard papers the page range is 8 to 14 pages. For short papers the page range is 6 to 8 pages. *Registration* Registration link and other details to be provided at a later date. - Authors' registration At least one author per paper must register.
