3rd CfP Third workshop on Resources for African Indigenous Language (RAIL)
by Menno Van Zaanen 02 Aug '22

02 Aug '22

Third call for papers Third workshop on Resources for African Indigenous Language (RAIL) https://bit.ly/rail2022 The South African Centre for Digital Language Resources (SADiLaR) is organising the 3rd RAIL workshop in the field of Resources for African Indigenous Languages. This workshop aims to bring together researchers who are interested in showcasing their research and thereby boosting the field of African indigenous languages. This provides an overview of the current state-of-the-art and emphasizes availability of African indigenous language resources, including both data and tools. Additionally, it will allow for information sharing among researchers interested in African indigenous languages and also start discussions on improving the quality and availability of the resources. Many African indigenous languages currently have no or very limited resources available and, additionally, they are often structurally quite different from more well-resourced languages, requiring the development and use of specialized techniques. By bringing together researchers from different fields (e.g., (computational) linguistics, sociolinguistics, language technology) to discuss the development of language resources for African indigenous languages, we hope to boost research in this field. The RAIL workshop is an interdisciplinary platform for researchers working on resources (data collections, tools, etc.) specifically targeted towards African indigenous languages. It aims to create the conditions for the emergence of a scientific community of practice that focuses on data, as well as tools, specifically designed for or applied to indigenous languages found in Africa. Suggested topics include the following: * Digital representations of linguistic structures * Descriptions of corpora or other data sets of African indigenous languages * Building resources for (under resourced) African indigenous languages * Developing and using African indigenous languages in the digital age * Effectiveness of digital technologies for the development of African indigenous languages * Revealing unknown or unpublished existing resources for African indigenous languages * Developing desired resources for African indigenous languages * Improving quality, availability and accessibility of African indigenous language resources The 3rd RAIL workshop 2022 will be co-located with the 10th Southern African Microlinguistics Workshop ( https://sites.google.com/nwulettere.co.za/samwop-10/home). This will be an in-person event located in Potchefstroom, South Africa. Registration will be free. RAIL 2022 submission requirements: * RAIL asks for full papers from 4 pages to 8 pages (plus more pages for references if needed), which must strictly follow the Journal of the Digital Humanities Association of Southern Africa style guide ( https://upjournals.up.ac.za/index.php/dhasa/libraryFiles/downloadPublic/30 ). * Accepted submissions will be published in JDHASA, the Journal of the Digital Humanities Association of Southern Africa ( https://upjournals.up.ac.za/index.php/dhasa/). * Papers will be double blind peer-reviewed and must be submitted through EasyChair (https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=rail2022). Important dates Submission deadline: 28 August 2022 Date of notification: 30 September 2022 Camera ready copy deadline: 23 October 2022 RAIL: 30 November 2022, North-West University - Potchefstroom SAMWOP: 1 – 3 December 2022, North-West University - Potchefstroom Organising Committee Jessica Mabaso Rooweither Mabuya Muzi Matfunjwa Mmasibidi Setaka Menno van Zaanen South African Centre for Digital Language Resources (SADiLaR), South Africa -- Prof Menno van Zaanen menno.vanzaanen(a)nwu.ac.za Professor in Digital Humanities South African Centre for Digital Language Resources https://www.sadilar.org ________________________________ NWU CORONA VIRUS: http://www.nwu.ac.za/coronavirus/ NWU PRIVACY STATEMENT: http://www.nwu.ac.za/it/gov-man/disclaimer.html DISCLAIMER: This e-mail message and attachments thereto are intended solely for the recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.

Shared Task on Understanding Figurative Language at FigLang2022 Workshop (Test Set Available August 15, 2022)
by Smaranda Muresan 01 Aug '22

01 Aug '22

*Shared Task on Understanding Figurative Language at FigLang2022* Interested in figurative language understanding, textual entailment, explanation generation? We are happy to announce a new shared task on Understanding Figurative Language as part of the Figurative Language Workshop (FigLang 2022) at EMNLP 2022. *Important dates:* · July 10, 2022: CodaLab competition is open; training data can be downloaded · *Aug 15, 2022: Test data* (available only to registered participants) can be downloaded and results submitted; performance will be tracked on CodaLab dashboard · *Aug 20, 2022: Last day for submitting predictions on test data* · Sept 7, 2022: Papers describing the systems are due · Oct 9, 2022: Notification of acceptance · TBD, 2022: Camera-ready papers due · December 8, 2022: Workshop at EMNLP 2022 In recent years, there have been several benchmarks dedicated to figurative language understanding, which generally frame "understanding" as a recognizing textual entailment task -- deciding whether one sentence (premise) entails/contradicts another (hypothesis) (Chakrabarty et al 2021, Stowe et al 2022). We introduce a new shared task for figurative language understanding around this textual entailment paradigm, where the hypothesis is a sentence containing the figurative language expression (e.g., metaphor, sarcasm, idiom, simile) and the premise is a literal sentence containing the literal meaning. There are two important aspects of this task: 1) the task requires not only to generate the label (entail/contradict) but also to generate a plausible explanation for the prediction; 2) the entail/contradict label and the exploration are related to the meaning of the figurative language expression. For more information about the shared task, including the link to the datasets, evaluation metrics and scripts important dates please visit the Shared task website (https://figlang2022sharedtask.github.io/). Participants can use the following CodaLab ( https://codalab.lisn.upsaclay.fr/competitions/5908) link to participate in the task as well as submit the predictions. *Organizing Team* Tuhin Chakrabarty, Columbia University; tuhin.chakr(a)cs.columbia.edu Arkadiy Saakyan, Columbia University; as5423(a)columbia.edu Debanjan Ghosh, Educational Testing Service; dghosh(a)ets.org Smaranda Muresan, Data Science Institute, Columbia University; smara(a)columbia.edu

CFP - The Sixth Widening Natural Language Processing Workshop (WiNLP)
by haddad.hatem＠gmail.com 31 Jul '22

31 Jul '22

WiNLP 2022 – Call for Submissions http://www.winlp.org/winlp22-call-for-papers/ Workshop Date December 7th or 8th, 2022 (date TBD) EMNLP 2022 Abu Dhabi, UAE The Sixth Widening Natural Language Processing Workshop (WiNLP) will be held in conjunction with EMNLP 2022 in Abu Dhabi, UAE. Since EMNLP is anticipating a hybrid format for their conference, we also anticipate our workshop will be hybrid, with both online and in-person attendees. The one-day workshop will occur during EMNLP’s workshop period either December 7th or 8th, 2022 (date TBD). We invite authors from underrepresented groups in Natural Language Processing (NLP) to submit a two-page abstract to be considered for a poster presentation at our workshop. Important Dates: Last date to join author workshopping: August 24, 2022 Submission deadline: September 7, 2022 Acceptance notification: October 9, 2022 Travel grant applications due: October 21, 2022 Travel grant notification: October 25, 2022 Workshop Description The WiNLP workshop is open to all to foster an inclusive and welcoming ACL environment. It aims to promote diversity and highlight the work of underrepresented groups in NLP: anyone who self-identifies within an underrepresented group [based on gender, ethnicity, nationality, sexual orientation, disability status, or otherwise] is invited to submit a two-page abstract for a poster presentation. In our 2022 iteration, we hope to be more intentional about centering discussions of access and disability, as well as contributing to diversity in scientific background, discipline, training, obtained degrees, seniority, and communities from underrepresented languages. The full-day event includes invited talks, oral presentations, and poster sessions. The workshop provides an excellent opportunity for junior members in the community to showcase their work and connect with senior mentors for feedback and career advice. It also offers recruitment opportunities with leading industrial labs. Most importantly, the workshop will provide an inclusive and accepting space, and work to lower structural barriers to joining and collaborating with the NLP community at large. Submission guidelines While everyone is encouraged to attend, the opportunity to present a talk or poster is intended for members of underrepresented groups at all career levels: students, post-docs, professors, and other researchers. Since many submissions are works in progress, we act as a non-archival repository for these works: while authors may elect to have their papers linked from our website, they will not be archived in the ACL Anthology. Authors may elect to not have their submission listed on the website if they wish to avoid de-anonymizing themselves for later submissions to other venues. Submissions should be two pages long (not including references). Authors must use the ACL Rolling Review style files to format their submission, and must submit it electronically in PDF format via the WiNLP 2022 online submission system: https://softconf.com/emnlp2022/WiNLP22/.https://softconf.com/emnlp2022/WiNL… Travel Support There will be a limited amount of travel grants and/or additional funding to cover expenses, similar to the previous editions. Funding is available for travel, lodging, registration, and visa costs for one author for each submission. The funded author may elect to attend virtually if they prefer. The selected author should be identified as part of the travel grant submission form. If we find ourselves with extra funds, we will attempt to support further funding for virtual attendance for additional authors, but we do not guarantee we can support any further in-person attendance. We recommend additional student authors keep an eye out for the EMNLP call for student volunteers or call for D&I subsidies as opportunities for further funding. For further details please visit our website: http://www.winlp.org/winlp22-call-for-papers/http://www.winlp.org/winlp22-c…

[OM-2022] Final CFP: 17th wshop on Ontology Matching collocated with ISWC: the submission deadline is approaching on Aug. 9th
by Cassia TROJAHN 29 Jul '22

29 Jul '22

The Seventeenth International Workshop on ONTOLOGY MATCHING (OM-2022) http://om2022.ontologymatching.org/ October 23rd or 24th, 2022, International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC) Workshop Program, Hybrid conference, Hangzhou, China ===================================================================== The submission deadline for tech. papers is approaching in 2 weeks on Aug. 9th: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=om2022 ===================================================================== BRIEF DESCRIPTION AND OBJECTIVES Ontology matching is a key interoperability enabler for the Semantic Web, as well as a useful technique in some classical data integration tasks dealing with the semantic heterogeneity problem. It takes ontologies as input and determines as output an alignment, that is, a set of correspondences between the semantically related entities of those ontologies. These correspondences can be used for various tasks, such as ontology merging, data interlinking, query answering or navigation over knowledge graphs. Thus, matching ontologies enables the knowledge and data expressed with the matched ontologies to interoperate. The workshop has three goals: 1. To bring together leaders from academia, industry and user institutions to assess how academic advances are addressing real-world requirements. The workshop will strive to improve academic awareness of industrial and final user needs, and therefore, direct research towards those needs. Simultaneously, the workshop will serve to inform industry and user representatives about existing research efforts that may meet their requirements. The workshop will also investigate how the ontology matching technology is going to evolve, especially with respect to data interlinking, knowledge graph and web table matching tasks. 2. To conduct an extensive and rigorous evaluation of ontology matching and instance matching (link discovery) approaches through the OAEI (Ontology Alignment Evaluation Initiative) 2022 campaign: http://oaei.ontologymatching.org/2022/ 3. To examine similarities and differences from other, old, new and emerging, techniques and usages, such as web table matching or knowledge embeddings. TOPICS of interest include but are not limited to: Business and use cases for matching (e.g., big, open, closed data); Requirements to matching from specific application scenarios (e.g., public sector); Application of matching techniques in real-world scenarios (e.g., in cloud, with mobile apps); Formal foundations and frameworks for matching; Novel matching methods, including link prediction, ontology-based access; Matching and knowledge graphs; Matching and deep learning; Matching and embeddings; Matching and big data; Matching and linked data; Instance matching, data interlinking and relations between them; Privacy-aware matching; Process model matching; Large-scale and efficient matching techniques; Matcher selection, combination and tuning; User involvement (including both technical and organizational aspects); Explanations in matching; Social and collaborative matching; Uncertainty in matching; Expressive alignments; Reasoning with alignments; Alignment coherence and debugging; Alignment management; Matching for traditional applications (e.g., data science); Matching for emerging applications (e.g., web tables, knowledge graphs). SUBMISSIONS Contributions to the workshop can be made in terms of technical papers and posters/statements of interest addressing different issues of ontology matching as well as participating in the OAEI 2022 campaign. Long technical papers should be of max. 12 pages. Short technical papers should be of max. 5 pages. Posters/statements of interest should not exceed 2 pages. All contributions have to be prepared using the LNCS Style: http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0 and should be submitted in PDF format (no later than August 9th, 2022) through the workshop submission site at: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=om2022 Contributors to the OAEI 2022 campaign have to follow the campaign conditions and schedule at http://oaei.ontologymatching.org/2022/. DATES FOR TECHNICAL PAPERS AND POSTERS: August 9th, 2022: Deadline for the submission of papers. September 6th, 2022: Deadline for the notification of acceptance/rejection.
