Workshop description: This workshop is devoted to questions in monologic discourse. Recent years have witnessed a flurry of research on questions from various theoretical perspectives. This trend coincides with a renewed interest in dialogue and interaction, where questions play a pivotal role. Indeed, questions have a significant impact on conversation. In Conversational Analysis, questions are viewed as a turn-taking trigger (Sacks, Schegloff, and Jefferson 1974) that shapes the organisation of social interaction. Question-answer relations are represented through adjacency pairs which structurally involve utterances that are produced by at least two speech participants (Schegloff 2007). Questions are used to request information or confirmation, and also to initiate repair. The study of questions in conversation suggests that interaction is biased towards cooperative responses (Stivers 2010). In formal semantics, it has been proposed to conceive of dialogue as a gameboard (Ginzburg 2012) or as a Table (Farkas 2020) where questions under discussion, i.e. unresolved issues, are processed. Once a question is answered, issues that awaited resolution are removed from the Table and propositions can be part of the common ground. The addressee's reactions are crucial to evaluate both the acceptance of the speaker's assertions and the nature of the update induced by the speaker's questions. An important pragmatic assumption is that the speaker ignores the answer and that the addressee knows it. When questions are used in contexts that diverge from this default assumption, they are considered to be non-canonical. While non-canonical questions are well documented, questions in monologic discourse have not been explored in connection with the discursive environment and the discourse genre they belong to. Because the context suspends the speaker's ignorance assumption, some semanticists have analysed such questions as self-addressed questions. But the status of the addressee is unclear and it has been referred to as a « second virtual » speaker (Grésillon and Lebrave 1984). According to Farkas (2020), in the case of a question that is part of a speech given on television, the addressee is the television audience even if the question is analysed as self-addressed. According to Eckardt & Disselkamp (2019), however, the audience is regarded as bystanders while the addressee coincides with the speaker: (1) How does a solar eclipse arise ? (Eckardt and Disselkamp 2019) The aim of the workshop is to revisit such questions from various theoretical perspectives. The goal of communication may not be limited to face to face information exchange. The workshop will focus on questions in communication settings where they cannot be answered face to face by an addressee. How commitments can be synchronised when the range of addressees and / or mediated communication restrict the possibility of response is an open question. This raises issues concerning the discursive function of questions and their definition, as most recent approaches tend to characterise questions from a dialogic perspective. What is the status of questions that are not intended to be answered by an addressee? As the speaker keeps the turn, he/she remains the sole source of information and how the addressee's information state is updated cannot be checked. Commitments may thus be predicted to be independent (Gunlogson (2008); Bhadra (2020)). Nonetheless, the speaker constantly anticipates upcoming discursive issues by foreseeing the addressee's knowledge state. The question is, how can the speaker steer the common ground to a new knowledge state without any response from an addressee? Does the absence of addressee response modify the nature of questions? Does it make them more vital to monologic discourse? In this respect, the frequency of direct questions has been associated with a greater degree of speaker control over discourse, and there is a great deal of cross-linguistic variation (Celle (2009); Fløttum et al.(2006)), which will be further investigated in the workshop. Can monologic discourse be defined as a genre on the basis of the lack of interaction? To what extent is dialogism simulated by questions in monologic discourse (Bakhtine 1984) ? Does monologic discourse favour certain interrogatives (open vs. closed interrogatives, independent vs. embedded interrogatives, sluices etc.) and certain discursive relations between questions and their responses? Do monologic questions have a « textual » function in terms of topic-comment organisation and textual progression (Grésillon and Lebrave 1984) ? One of the goals of the workshop is to foster dialogue between linguists who have carried out annotation from a discourse coherence perspective and those who have annotated questions from a dialogic perspective, possibly incorporating multimodal cues. It is believed that the study of questions in monologic discourse can benefit from the insights of both perspectives. Coherence based models (such as Segmented Discourse Representation Theory, see Muller et al. (2012) or Penn Discourse TreeBank, see Prasad et al. (2017), Prasad et al. (2019)) originally intended for narrative text can accommodate questions. For instance, the corpus STAC, a corpus of dialogues, annotates Question Answer pairs in the SDRT framework (Asher et al. 2016), whereas in the third version of the PDTB, questions answered by the writer are annotated as hypophora (Webber et al. 2019), similarly to the annotation of TED Talks transcripts in the TED-MDB (Zeyrek et al. 2019). Vice versa, how questions are annotated in QUD based models (see Westera et al. (2020); Westera & Rohde (2019); Riester et al. (2018)) in terms of information-structure (focus vs. topic) and in terms of relevance, may uncover their discursive contribution.

Call for paper-MMLow-ICON 2022 -reg

*Paper Submission Deadline Extended* to Nov 15 *WORKSHOP ON MULTIMODAL MACHINE LEARNING IN LOW-RESOURCE LANGUAGES at ICON 2022 <https://lcs2.in/ICON-2022/>* *Link: *https://sites.google.com/view/mmlow-icon2022/home?authuser=0 In recent years, the exploitation of the potential of big data has resulted in significant advancements in a variety of Computer Vision and Natural Language Processing applications. However, the majority of tasks addressed thus far have been primarily visual in nature due to the unbalanced availability of labelled samples across modalities (e.g., there are numerous large labelled datasets for images but few for audio or IMU-based classification), resulting in a large performance gap when algorithms are trained separately. With its origins in audio-visual speech recognition and, more recently, in language and vision projects such as image and video captioning, multimodal machine learning is a thriving multidisciplinary research field that addresses several of artificial intelligence's (AI) original goals by integrating and modelling multiple communicative modalities, including linguistic, acoustic, and visual messages. Due to the variability of the data and the frequently observed dependency between modalities, this study subject presents some particular problems for machine learning researchers. Because the majority of this hateful content is in regional languages, they easily slip past online surveillance algorithms that are designed to target articles written in resource-rich languages like English. As a result, low-resource regional languages in Asia, Africa, Europe, and South America face a shortage of tools, benchmark datasets, and machine learning approaches. This workshop aims to bring together members of the machine learning and multimodal data fusion fields in regional languages. We anticipate contributions that hate speech and emotional analysis in multimodality include video, audio, text, drawings, and synthetic material in regional language. This workshop's objective is to advance scientific study in the broad field of multimodal interaction, techniques, and systems, emphasising important trends and difficulties in regional languages, with a goal of developing a roadmap for future research and commercial success. We invite submissions on topics that include, but are not limited to, the following: - Multimodal Sentiment Analysis in regional languages - Hate content video detection in regional languages - Trolling and Offensive post detection in Memes - Multimodal data fusion and data representation for hate speech detection in regional language - Multimodal hate speech benchmark datasets and evaluations in regional languages - Multimodal fake news in regional languages - Data collection and annotation methodologies for safer social media in low-resourced languages - Content moderation strategies in regional languages - Cybersecurity and social media in regional languages *Important Dates:* *Paper Submission Deadline: * Nov 14, 2022 *Paper Acceptance Notification: **Nov 15, 2022 * *Camera-ready Submission Deadline: * Dec 01, 2022 *Workshop*: Dec 15, 2022 Thanks & Regards, MMLow Organizers
