IRCDL 2023:Call for papers [APOLOGIES FOR MULTIPLE POSTINGS] ================================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS IRCDL 2023 The Conference on Information and Research science Connecting to Digital and Library science 2023 (Formerly the Italian Research Conference on Digital Libraries) Bari, Italy - 23-24 February 2023 Venue: University of Bari "Aldo Moro", Bari, Italy Website: http://lacam.di.uniba.it/IRCDL23/ ================================================================== Since 2005 the Italian Research Conference on Digital Libraries is a yearly date for researchers on Digital Libraries and related topics, organized by the Italian Research Community. Over the years IRCDL has become an important national forum focused on technical, practical, and social issues. IRCDL encompasses the many meanings of the term “digital libraries”, including new forms of information institutions; operational information systems with all manner of digital content; new means of selecting, collecting, organizing, and distributing digital content; and theoretical models of information media, including document genres and electronic publishing. Digital libraries may be viewed as a new form of information institution or as an extension of the services libraries currently provide. Representatives from academia, government, industry, research communities, research infrastructures, and others are invited to participate in this conference. The conference draws from a broad and multidisciplinary array of research areas including computer science, information science, librarianship, archival science and practice, museum studies and practice, technology, social sciences, cultural heritage and humanities, and scientific communities. This year its focus is on Artificial Intelligence and Semantic Web Technologies Empowering Digital Libraries. AI is nowadays pervasive and is being embedded in all kinds of applications. Its techniques – from Knowledge Representation and Reasoning to Machine Learning and Data Mining, from Natural Language Processing to Image Processing, etc. – and application (e.g. for metadata enrichment and data analysis) may cause breakthroughs in DL research and practices for all kinds of stakeholders. Semantic Web technologies are key to exploiting the semantics of information preserved in DLs, thus enabling advanced and personalized services and functionality for its users. Submissions are welcome concerning theory, architectures, data models, tools, services, and infrastructures about the following topics (but not limited to): - Active Learning Techniques to guide DL enrichment and curation - Applications of Digital Libraries - Applications of Machine Learning Techniques to Research Data and DL - Citation Analysis and Scientometrics - Cultural Heritage Access and Analysis - Data Citation, Provenance and Pricing - Data and Information Lifecycle (creation, store, share and reuse) - Data and Metadata Quality - Data Repositories and Archives - Digital Preservation and Curation - Document Analysis (Layout, Text, Images) - Knowledge Acquisition from scientific papers and data - Knowledge Base Construction for cultural heritage - Knowledge Discovery and Representation in Digital Libraries - Human-Computer Interaction and User Experience - Information Extraction from tables and figures in scientific literature - Information Retrieval and Access - Metadata (definition, management, curation, integration) - Multi-media handling - Ontologies - Open Data and Open Science: models, practices, mandates, and policies - Quality and evaluation of digital libraries - Research Infrastructures - Scholarly Communication - Science of Science - Semantic Web Technologies and Linked Data for DLs - Services for Digital Arts and Humanities - Standards and Interoperability - User Participation IMPORTANT DATES Submission Deadline: 5 December 2022 Acceptance Notification: 20 January 2023 Camera-Ready Deadline: 13 February 2023 Conference: 23-24 February 2023 SUBMISSION FORMAT Research papers, describing original ideas on the listed topics and on other fundamental aspects of digital libraries and technology, are solicited.

Dear Colleagues, We are glad to invite you to participate in SemEval-2023 Shared Task 12, the first SemEval shared task for sentiment analysis targeting African low resource languages. The AfriSenti-SemEval Shared Task 12 is based on a collection of humanly annotated Twitter datasets in 16 African languages (all low resource) for sentiment classification. This year, we have three sub-tasks, from which the participants can choose one or more tasks depending on their preference. Task A: Monolingual Sentiment Classification Given training data in a target language, determine the polarity of a tweet in the target language (positive, negative, or neutral). If a tweet conveys both a positive and negative sentiment, whichever is the stronger sentiment should be chosen. This sub-task covers 15 languages namely, Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo, Nigerian_Pidgin, Amharic, Algerian Arabic, Kinyarwanda, Twi, Mozambican Portuguese, Swahili, Setswana, isiZulu, Moroccan Arabic/Darija, Xitsonga (South-African Dialect), Xitsonga (Mozambique Dialect) Task B: Multilingual Sentiment Classification Given a combined training data from 12 African languages, determine the polarity of a tweet in the target language (positive, negative, or neutral). Task C: Zero-Shot Sentiment Classification Given unlabeled tweets in two African languages (Oromo, and Tigrinya), leverage any or all of the available training datasets in Subtasks A and B to determine the sentiment of a tweet in the two target languages is positive, negative, or neutral. Helpful Links: Codalab competition page: https://codalab.lisn.upsaclay.fr/competitions/7320 Task website: https://afrisenti-semeval.github.io/ Prize: The afriSenti-SemEval competition has a prize and will be awarded to the best performing team in each of the three sub-tasks. - African League: To encourage African participation, this league is for teams with at least one African . - Masters and Undergraduate League: This league is dedicated to masters and undergraduate students only . - Worldwide League: Be a participant from any country.

The main drive behind this task is to foster development of methods and tools to support the analysis of online media content in order to understand what makes a text persuasive: which writing style is used, what key aspects are highlighted, and which persuasion techniques are used to influence the reader. The data used for for this task is made of articles collected from 2020 to mid 2022, they revolve around a range of widely discussed topics such as COVID-19, climate change, abortion, migration, the Russo-Ukrainian war, and local elections. The data presents several novelties: it is multilabel, multilingual (🇫🇷🇵🇱🇬🇧🇷🇺🇮🇹🇩🇪), uses an updated fine-grained taxonomy of persuasion techniques and covers complementary dimensions of what makes a text persuasive. The train contains currently more than 1600 documents and more than 40000 spans annotated for persuasion techniques! Are you interested in using AI systems to analyse political speech, media bias or rhetoric? Then you should not miss this task!!! URL https://propaganda.math.unipd.it/semeval2023task3/ TASKS We offer three subtasks on news articles in six languages (English, French, German, Italian, Polish, and Russian). Subtask 1: NEWS GENRE CATEGORISATION Given a news article, determine whether it is an opinion piece, aims at objective news reporting, or is a satire piece. This is a multi-class task at article-level. Subtask 2: NEWS FRAME CATEGORISATION Given a news article, identify the generic frames used in the article. This is a multi-class task at article-level. Subtask 3: PERSUASION TECHNIQUE DETECTION Given a news article, identify the persuasion techniques in each paragraph. This is a multi-label task at paragraph level. PARTICIPATION & EVALUATION The participants may take part in any number of subtask-language pairs (even just one), and may train their systems using the data for all languages (in a multilingual setup).

Dear Corpora members, Please find below a CFP for the next "Journées de la Linguistique de Corpus". * The 11th International Conference on Corpus Linguistics * 3-6 July 2023, Grenoble * Call for Papers * https://jlc2023.sciencesconf.org/ The International Conference on Corpus Linguistics (JLC), founded by Geoffrey Williams in 2001 at the University of South Brittany, Lorient, France, regularly draws together an interdisciplinary community whose research focus is corpus linguistics. After seven gatherings in Lorient and an interlude in Orleans in 2015 (8th International Conference on Corpus Linguistics), the conference alighted in Grenoble in early July 2017 and in November 2019, organized by the LIDILEM Laboratory with contributions from LIG, ILCEA4, Litt&Arts and the MSH-Alpes. Université Grenoble Alpes is honored to host this international conference again from July 3rd to July 6th 2023. The JLC’23 are organized in collaboration with other labs from French universities (Lyon, Montpellier, Toulouse): DDL, ICAR, Praxiling, CLLE. The objective of JLC'23 is to (re)unite a community that adopts various approaches, be they methodological or disciplinary, to promote corpus linguistics, and to contribute to the evolution of practices in the field by building bridges between different approaches to digital corpora. The participants are invited to share and compare their knowledge of tools, experiences, and findings. In the tradition of previous conferences, the JLC in Grenoble will offer three days of presentations, guest speakers and discussion sessions among the participants. Training sessions on tools and methods will be organized over a half day. This edition of the JLC will put a particular focus on corpora and didactics. A part of the conference will be specifically dedicated to this theme. We expect papers that show and question the use of corpora in teaching, be they feedback from real uses, presentation of methodological approaches for various audiences, or more theoretical points of view... These days will not be limited to this theme and will be open to all kinds of contributions on written, oral or multimodal corpora, which may concern, in a non-exhaustive way : 1. Linguistic approaches to corpora 2. Methods and tools 3. Variations, genres, and discourse 4. Applications and uses of corpora for teaching and learning, translation, terminology... Guest speakers include: Florence Mourlhon-Dallies + another speaker to be confirmed Submissions for a presentation or a demonstration in French or English should not exceed three pages (excluding figures and bibliographic references) and must be anonymous.

PhD position - "A computational analysis of advertising language on social media"
by Spanakis, Jerry (DACS) 09 Nov '22

09 Nov '22

Do you have a favourite YouTuber? Are you worried that you see too many native ads on Instagram? Are you following the latest events on Twitter? Do you have a passion for Natural Language Processing? Then we need to talk (keep reading) Together with my colleague from law (Catalina Goanta) we are looking for a PhD candidate working on computational analysis methods for advertising language on social media. This is part of the ERC starting grant project on HUMANads, award to Catalina last year. We are looking for somebody with a background in Computer Science (or similar) with focus/interest on NLP. Feel free to reach out if you have more questions. Check the full ad below (or here<https://www.academictransfer.com/en/319811/phd-position-a-computational-ana…>), apply by December 1st via this link<https://www.uu.nl/en/organisation/working-at-utrecht-university/jobs/phd-po…> Best, -Jerry PhD position 'A computational analysis of advertising language on social media' (1.0 FTE) JOB DESCRIPTION The Utrecht Centre for Regulation and Enforcement in Europe at the Utrecht School of Law, Faculty of Law, Economics and Governance, is looking for a PhD candidate to conduct research in natural legal language processing and social media advertising under the supervision of dr. Catalina Goanta (Utrecht University), and dr. Gerasimos (Jerry) Spanakis (Maastricht University). Content monetization reflects a new era of social media business models, changing the nature of digital advertising from platform to human ads. Human ads are Internet influencers (also referred to as content creators) who earn revenue from social media advertising by creating authentic, relatable advertising content for their armies of followers. While their activity has been touted as a new form of creative labour, the overlap between their freedom of expression, political thought and advertising interests raises some serious concerns. One underlying danger is the convergence of speech in two ways. Consumers and citizens can no longer distinguish (i) between ads and non-ads, and (ii) between commercial and political communications. This is a new form of consumer vulnerability on digital markets where speech cannot be separated from platform infrastructure. Human ads are an emerging category of stakeholders who turn engagement into currency in novel ways. Users are faced with a double transparency problem: (i) human ads have incentives to hide commercial interests, and (ii) platforms have incentives to algorithmically amplify human ads engagement in opaque ways. This reflects a general good faith and fair dealing problem: the social media economy is increasingly based on deceit. However, we know very little about the size of deceit on social media. Even basic questions such as defining influencers or understanding how much sponsored content they post are difficult to formalize and compute. This PhD project consists in conducting interdisciplinary research to develop methodologies for the classification and detection of advertising language on social media. The PhD project will be mainly focused on the application of natural language processing to regulatory issues arising out of the proliferation of commercial and political advertising on social media, but could potentially also include web measurement and social network analysis approaches. Examples of questions which could fall under the PhD project include: * What are the characteristics of commercial v political advertising language on social media? * What kind of research methodologies can be used to classify social media content that is monetized by content creators/influencers? * How can content creators/influencers be computationally defined? * How can we use computer science methodologies to identify, describe and measure social media harms arising out of the proliferation of hidden advertising? This PhD position is part of the European Research Council Starting Grant HUMANads. The PhD candidate will have an opportunity and be expected to further define the initial research objectives set out by the project, in collaboration with the supervision team. This PhD position will be part of a broader project team featuring computer scientists, law and media scholars, and it will be based in the RENFORCE research center and the Molengraaff Institute for private law<https://www.uu.nl/en/organisation/utrecht-university-school-of-law/about-th…>. requirements * Academic excellence proven through a good track record of initiatives related to, among others, academic research; * Obtained (or obtained by the start of the PhD trajectory) Master in Computer Science or a Master in adjacent fields such as Computational Social Sciences, Data Science or Empirical Legal Studies; * Interest in being part of an interdisciplinary team; * Interest in being the first computer science PhD candidate at Utrecht Law School; * Knowledge of natural language processing (and related programming frameworks); * Practical experience with programming (esp.
