2nd CfP: "Semantic, artificial and computational interaction studies: Towards a behavioromics of multimodal communication"
by Andy Lücking 08 Nov '22

08 Nov '22

*Apologies for cross-posting* 2nd Call for papers HCI International 2023 Session: "Semantic, artificial and computational interaction studies: Towards a behavioromics of multimodal communication" Manual gestures, facial expressions, head movements, shrugs, laughter, body orientation, speech, pauses: they all contribute to constituting what is called "multimodal interaction". Aiming at natural (for humans) interfaces, the field of HCI paid attention to this social fact early on. It is also a vital topic in conversation analysis and cognitive science and begins to percolate to theoretical linguistics and (formal) semantics. Simultaneously, due to the digital turn, work on multimodal communication is expanded by data analytics, that is, statistical means to describe the form of communication. However, while conjoint in investigating a common empirical domain, there is little exchange between these fields. This session aims at bringing these branches together. Potential goals are to delineate experimental studies, computational methods, resource building, and exploration to integrate symbolic, statistical, laboratory, field, and corpus-based approaches -- a joint methodological endeavor that might be called "behavioromics." The session is open, but not restrcted, to topics such as the following: - dialogue semantics and dialogue systems - (big) gesture data - multimodal interaction data - creation and exploitation of multimodal corpora - virtual reality avatars as experimental setting - cross-modal tracking - data-based multimodal analysis - detecting multimodal ensembles or gestalts - automatic annotation of everything beyond written text - representation schemes for multimodal communication We want to emphasize that conceptual contributions are highly welcome! The conference session aims at providing a platform for bringing together semanticists, computer scientists and researchers from related fields that deal with multimodal interaction. We all work on virtually the same topic but from different angles, but there are way to few opportunities to get in touch. But exchange and seeing what others are doing is crucial to approach the above-outlined, methodological, empirical and theoretical challenges. The conference session will take place *virtually* in conjunction with HCI International 2023 (https://2023.hci.international/). Full papers will be published as part of the conference proceedings by Springer. *If you want to contribute, please send a message to Andy Lücking (luecking(a)em.uni-frankfurt.de).* Important dates: - December 04, 2022: upload abstract - Notification of review outcome: 20 December 2022 - February 14, 2023: full paper is due - 23-28 July 2023: HCI International conference (virtual) Session organizers: Cornelia Ebert (https://www.linguistik-in-frankfurt.de/personal/cornelia-ebert/) Andy Lücking (https://www.texttechnologylab.org/team/andy-luecking/; http://www.llf.cnrs.fr/en/Gens/L%C3%BCcking) Alexander Mehler (https://www.texttechnologylab.org/team/alexander-mehler/)

Final Call for Papers: Treebanks and Linguistic Theories (TLT)
by Kilian Evang 08 Nov '22

08 Nov '22

The 21st International Workshop on Treebanks and Linguistic Theories – FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS Submission link: https://openreview.net/group?id=georgetown.edu/GURT/2023/Conference Submission deadline (extended): Nov 15th, 2022 Invited speakers announced (scroll down) The 21st International Workshop on Treebanks and Linguistic Theories (TLT) will bring together developers and users of linguistically annotated natural language corpora and take place during the week of March 9th–12th, 2023 in Washington D.C. on the campus of Georgetown University as part of GURT 2023. VENUE The Georgetown University Round Table on Linguistics (GURT) is a peer-reviewed annual linguistics conference held continuously since 1949 at Georgetown University in Washington DC, with topics and co-located events varying from year to year. Under an overarching theme of ‘Computational and Corpus Linguistics’, GURT 2023 will feature four events, which are workshops or conferences focused on computational and corpus approaches to syntax but also covering theoretical issues: Universal Dependency Workshop (UDW), Depling, Treebanks and Linguistic Theory (TLT), and CxGs+NLP. All talks from all events will take place in a single (non-parallel) plenary session, with the papers from one event being presented contiguously. The goal of co-locating these events is to promote cross-fertilization of ideas across subcommunities. Proceedings will be published separately for each event, and will be available in the ACL Anthology. In order to support rich discussions and networking with minimal overhead and cost, GURT will be primarily an in-person event; we will, however, accommodate a limited number of live/synchronous remote presentations, prioritizing those with circumstances that prevent travel. University policies regarding COVID safety will be in force during the event. Georgetown University is located in a historic neighborhood in the heart of the nation’s capital. The city is a premier tourist destination, and the region is served by Reagan National (DCA), Dulles (IAD), and Baltimore-Washington (BWI) airports. GURT INVITED SPEAKERS - Jonathan Dunn, University of Canterbury, New Zealand (CxGs+NLP) - Guy Perrier, Loria, France (Depling) - Joan Bresnan, Stanford University, USA (TLT) - Joakim Nivre, Uppsala University, Sweden (UDW) SUBMISSION INFORMATION TLT addresses all aspects of treebank design, development, and use. As ‘treebanks’ we consider any pairing of natural language data (spoken, signed, or written) with annotations of linguistic structure at various levels of analysis, including, e.g., morpho-phonology, syntax, semantics, and discourse. Annotations can take any form (including trees or general graphs), but they should be encoded in a way that enables computational processing. Reflections on the design of linguistic annotations, methodology studies, resource announcements or updates, annotation or conversion tool development, or reports on treebank usage are but some examples of the types of papers we anticipate for TLT. Papers should describe original work; they should emphasize completed work rather than intended work, and should indicate clearly the state of completion of the reported results. Submissions will be judged on correctness, originality, technical strength, significance and relevance to the conference, and interest to the attendees. We invite paper submissions in two distinct tracks: - long papers on substantial, original, and unpublished research, including empirical evaluation results, where appropriate; - short papers on smaller, focused contributions, work in progress, negative results, surveys, or opinion pieces. All papers accepted for presentation at the workshop will be included in the TLT 2023 proceedings volume, which will be part of the ACL Anthology. Long papers may consist of up to 8 pages of content (excluding references and appendices). Short papers may consist of up to 4 pages of content (excluding references and appendices). Accepted papers will be given an additional page to address reviewer comments. All submissions should follow the two-column format and the ACL style guidelines. We strongly recommend the use of the LaTeX style files, OpenDocument, or Microsoft Word templates created for ACL: https://github.com/acl-org/acl-style-files All papers must be anonymous, i.e., not reveal author(s) on the title page or through self-references. So, e.g., “We previously showed (Smith, 2020) …”, should be avoided. Instead, use citations such as “Smith (2020) previously showed …”. Papers must be submitted digitally, in PDF, and uploaded through the on-line conference system: https://openreview.net/group?id=georgetown.edu/GURT/2023/Conference Double submission policy: We will accept submissions that have been or will be submitted elsewhere, but require that the authors notify us, including information on where else they are submitting. We also require that authors withdraw work that will be published elsewhere (no double publication). Submissions that violate these requirements will be rejected without review. All papers will be refereed through a double-blind peer review process with final acceptance decisions made by the workshop organizers. Submissions may be selected for publication in a GURT venue other than TLT at the discretion of the organizers. IMPORTANT DATES Long and short paper submission deadlines: November 15th, 2022 Reviews Due: December 17th, 2022 Notification of acceptance: January 11th, 2023 Final version of papers due: February 1st, 2023 GURT2023: March 9th-12th, 2023 TLT WORKSHOP CHAIRS Daniel Dakota, Indiana University Kilian Evang, Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf Sandra Kübler, Indiana University Lori Levin, Carnegie Mellon University Contact: ddakota(a)iu.edu Website: https://cl.indiana.edu/tlt2023 GURT Website: https://gurt.georgetown.edu/

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.
