[Corpora-List]3rd CFP and deadline extension: CL for Political Text Analysis (CPSS)
by Ines Rehbein 28 Jun '22

28 Jun '22

Call for Papers: 3rd Workshop on Computational Linguistics for Political and Social Sciences (CPSS 2022) https://gscl.org/en/arbeitskreise/cpss/cpss-2022/cfp-2022 * Workshop description * Recent years have seen more and more applications of computational methods to the analysis of political texts. This has led to the emergence of different communities (one with a background in political / social science and the other in the areas of NLP/computer science) which struggle to get awareness of the relevant work taking place in the respective other community. The main goal of this workshop is to bridge this gap and bring together researchers and ideas from the different communities, to foster collaboration and catalyze further interdisciplinary research efforts. *Keynote* by David Jurgens https://jurgens.people.si.umich.edu/ * Important Dates * Workshop papers due: **10.07.2022** (extended) Notification of acceptance: 10.08.2022 Camera-ready papers due: 01.09.2022 Workshop date: 12.09.2022 * Submissions * We welcome submissions of long and short papers, posters, and demonstrations relating to any aspect of Political Text Analysis using computational methods. Our workshop will accept two types of submissions: * archival papers describing original and unpublished work * non-archival papers (abstracts) that present already published research or ongoing work. The availability of both submission formats will meet the different needs of researchers from different communities, allowing them to come together and exchange ideas in an "get to know each other" environment which is likely to foster future collaborations. * Special Theme and Panel * The workshop will host a panel with invited speakers from the different communities, with a focus on theory-driven modelling of complex political or socio-psychological constructs in text, such as populism, polarisation or political cynicism. The panel will discuss challenges for modelling such multifaceted concepts from a theoretical as well as from a machine learning point of view, and how such models can be evaluated in a meaningful way. For more information, please refer to the workshop website: gscl.org/en/arbeitskreise/cpss/cpss-2022 If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the program co-chairs: ines(a)informatik.uni-mannheim.de * Organisers * * Ines Rehbein (U-Mannheim) * Christopher Klamm (U-Mannheim) * Gabriella Lapesa (U-Stuttgart) * Simone Ponzetto (U-Mannheim) -- Ines Rehbein Data and Web Science Group University of Mannheim, Germany

The Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable (FAIR) principles were elaborated to address these issues, describing a set of requirements for data reusability and interoperability. These principles have been gaining increasing attention in a range of different areas and applications, including in the industrial area. A key aspect in making data FAIR is the ability of machines to automatically find, access, interoperate, and reuse data with none or minimal human intervention. For that, the ability of properly and semantically describing data is essential. The workshop has the following main goals: - to bring together leaders from academia, industry and user institutions to discuss the adoption of FAIR principles in real-world requirements. - to serve to inform industry and user representatives about existing research efforts that may meet their requirements. - to investigate how the FAIR principles are supported by the use of schemes, vocabulaires, and ontologies that ideally are themselves FAIR.%, including creation, reuse and alignment of schemas, vocabularies and ontologies, to support the FAIR principles and their adoption in diverse areas of application. - to discuss the challenges and perspectives in adopting FAIR principles. -------------- Workshop topics -------------- The topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: - schemes, ontologies and vocabulaires for FAIR data and metadata; - domain and cross-domain ontologies for FAIR data; - making vocabularies and ontologies FAIR; - alignment of schemes, vocabulaires and ontologies for FAIR; - data management for FAIR data; - best practices for implementing the FAIR principles; - FAIRification process and use cases; - metrics for FAIRness assessment; - provenance in FAIR environments; - FAIR principles and open science; - FAIR principles and linked open data; - FAIR in industry, scientific communities (life science, digital humanities, health, smart cities, etc.). -------------- Submissions -------------- - Full research papers: 12 pages (including references). - Short papers: 6 pages (including references).

[Corpora-List]Third CfP MUMTTT 2022 - The 5th Workshop on Multi-word Units in Machine Translation and Translation Technology (Malaga)
by Giulia Speranza 27 Jun '22

27 Jun '22

*apologies for cross-posting* http://lexytrad.es/europhras2022/mumttt-2022-2/ The 5th Workshop on Multi-word Units in Machine Translation and Translation Technology(MUMTTT 2022) Malaga, 30th September 2022 In conjunction with EUROPHRAS 2022 – International Conference “‘Computational and Corpus-based Phraseology’” Third Call for Papers Following the success of the previous editions of the workshops on Multi-word Units in Machine Translation and TranslationTechnology–the 2013 edition at the MT Summit in Nice, France, and the editions at the European Society of Phraseology Conference in Malaga, Spain (2015 and 2019), in London, UK (2017) we are announcing the fifth edition to be held in conjunction with the International Conference “Computational and Corpus-based Phraseology which is jointly organised by the European Association for Phraseology (EUROPHRAS), the University of Malaga (Research Group in Lexicography and Translation <http://lexytrad.es/>, IUITLM <http://iuitlm.uma.es/>), the University of Wolverhampton (Research Group in Computational Linguistics <http://rgcl.wlv.ac.uk/>, RIILP <http://www.wlv.ac.uk/riilp>) and the Bulgarian Association for Computational Linguistics <http://acl-bg.org/>. The MUMTTT workshop will be held on the last day of the conference, 30th September 2022. It will provide a forum for researchers and practitioners in the fields of (Computational) Linguistics, (Computational) Phraseology, Translation Studies and Translation Technology to discuss recent advances in the area of multi-word unit processing and to coordinate research efforts across disciplines in order to improve the integration of multi-word units in machine translation and translation technology tools. Multi-word units are word combinations which range from compounds such as ‘credit card’ to idiomatic expressions such as “’it is raining cats and dogs’ and are acknowledged as one of the major challenges in natural language processing (NLP), because of their lexical, syntactic, semantic, pragmatic and/or statistical idiosyncrasies. In spite of the relative progress achieved in translation technology with the adoption of neural approaches and in the processing of particular types of units such as verb-particle constructions, the identification, interpretation and translation of multi-word units in general still represent open challenges, both from a theoretical and a practical point of view. The idiosyncratic morpho-syntactic, semantic and translational properties of multi-word units pose many obstacles even to human translators, mainly because of intrinsic ambiguities, structural and lexical asymmetries between languages, and, finally, cultural differences. In recent years, growing attention has been paid to integrating multi-word units (MWUs) in machine translation and translation technology tools, as it has been acknowledged that it is not possible to create large scale language solutions without properly handling MWUs of all types. As a matter of fact, researchers are now addressing the problems posed by MWU processing and translation using different formalisms and techniques, such as automatic recognition of MWUs in a monolingual or bilingual setting; alignment and paraphrasing techniques; development and use of (handcrafted) monolingual and bilingual language resources; creation of annotated monolingual and parallel corpora, development of strategies for handling syntactically flexible units in language analysis and translation modules, development of evaluation projects. The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners working on MWU processing from various perspectives, in order to enable cross-fertilisation and foster the creation of innovative solutions that can only arise from interdisciplinary collaborations. In particular, the workshop welcomes interactions between NLP researchers working on the computational treatment of multi-word units, experts in (computational) phraseology working on challenging topics of their discipline, as well as translation practitioners, to the benefit of applying their latest results to advance the state of the art in MWU processing. Topics of Interest The MUMTTT 2022 workshop invites the submission of papers reporting on original and unpublished research on topics related to MWU processing in machine translation and translation technology, including - Lexical, syntactic, semantic and translational aspects in MWU representation - Theoretical approaches to MWUs (e.g., collostructional analysis of MWU, cognitive approaches to processing MWUs, etc.) - Development of multilingual MWU resources - Identification and acquisition of MWUs and variants - Learning semantic information about MWUs from monolingual, parallel or comparable corpora - Development and use of MWU resources in machine translation and translation technology - Development of corpora for the extraction and translation of MWUs - Compilation of resources for the extraction and translation of multiword units - Creation of MWU-annotated corpora with a focus on translation aspects - Paraphrasing of MWUs applied to the improvement of machine translation - MWUs and word alignment techniques - MWUs in machine translation - MWUs in translation memory systems - MWUs in term extraction - MWU-centred machine translation evaluation - Evaluation of MWU translation - MWUs in CAT tools - Multilingualism and MWU processing - Psycholinguistic studies of MWU processing in a bilingual setting.
