Second Workshop on Generation Evaluation and Metrics at EMNLP 2022: 2nd Call for Papers
by kdhole＠emory.edu 31 Aug '22

31 Aug '22

This is the 2nd call for papers for The Second Version of Generation, Evaluation And Metrics (GEM) Workshop 2022 workshop which will be held as part of EMNLP, December 7-11, 2022. It is endorsed by the ACL Special Interest Group on Natural Language Generation (SIGGEN). ======== Overview ======== Natural language generation (NLG) is one of the most active research fields in NLP. Yet, much of the work is focused on English, and too little attention is given to evaluation processes. As many of the recent developments in few-shot and in-context learning have led to the treatment of many tasks as text generation problems, the need for better NLG evaluation processes is becoming more urgent. To that end, the GEM workshop aims to encourage the development of (semi-) automatic model audits and improved human evaluation strategies, and to popularize model evaluations in languages beyond English. We welcome submissions related, but not limited to, the following topics: - Automatic evaluation of NLG systems - Creating NLG corpora and challenge sets - Critiques of benchmarking efforts and responsibly measuring progress in NLG - Effective and/or efficient NLG methods that can be applied to a wide range of languages and tasks - Standardizing human evaluation and making it more robust Check examples here: https://www.aclweb.org/portal/content/second-workshop-generation-evaluation… We additionally invite submissions that conduct in-depth analyses of outputs of existing systems, for example through error analyses, by applying new metrics, or by testing the system on new test sets. While we encourage the use of the infrastructure the organizing team is developing as part of the GEM benchmark, its use is not required. If you are interested in seeing last year's workshop website from ACL 2021, please check here. ======== How to submit? ======== Submissions can take either of the following forms: - Archival Papers Papers describing original and unpublished work can be submitted in a between 4 and 8 page format. - Non-Archival Abstracts To discuss work already presented or under review at a peer-reviewed venue, we allow the submission of 2-page abstracts. All submissions are allowed unlimited space for references and appendices and should conform to EMNLP 2022 style guidelines. Archival paper submissions must be anonymized while abstract submissions may include author information. You can either commit a paper reviewed through ARR at here or submit directly through SoftConf here. Note that there are separate deadlines for the two options (see below) We additionally invite presentations by authors of papers in the Findings of the EMNLP (details to be announced at a later date). ======== Shared Task ======== We are organizing a shared task focused on multilingual summarization, including human and automatic evaluation. Participants of the shared task are invited to submit a system description of 4-8 pages. ======== Important Dates (Submission Date Revised from 7 Sept to 21 Sept) ======== Paper Submission Dates - 21 September 2022: Workshop paper submission deadline if using Softconf - 2 October 2022: Latest ARR commitment deadline - 16 October 2022: Workshop paper notification deadline - 23 October 2022: Workshop paper camera ready deadline Workshop Dates - 7-8 December 2022: Workshops ======== Organization ======== - Antoine Bosselut (EPFL) - Khyathi Chandu (Carnegie Mellon University) - Kaustubh Dhole (Emory University) - Varun Gangal (Carnegie Mellon University) - Sebastian Gehrmann (Google Research) - Yacine Jernite (Hugging Face) - Jekaterina Novikova (NoOverfitting Lab) - Laura Perez-Beltrachini (University of Edinburgh) Steering Committee - Wei Xu (Georgia Tech) - Esin Durmus (Stanford University) - Samira Shaikh (UNC Charlotte) Website: https://gem-benchmark.com/workshop Submission Deadline: Wednesday, 21 September 2022 Contact Email: gehrmann(a)google.com gem-benchmark(a)googlegroups.com

29 Aug '22

Dear all, We are happy to inform you that we have recently released a sample of the WoPoss corpus – an annotated corpus for the investigation of the diachrony of modality in Latin – together with a user-friendly interface to query it. WoPoss – A World of Possibilities. Modal pathways over an extra-long period of time: the diachrony of modality in the Latin language – is a project that aims at setting up and annotating in a fine-grained way a balanced corpus of Latin texts from the 3rd c. BCE to the 7th c. CE in order to investigate the evolution of lexical and morphological modal markers according to dedicated Guidelines<https://zenodo.org/record/6417878#.YwKJ8-xBzAM>. A sample of the annotated corpus is now available and the modal passages can be queried at woposs.unine.ch/form.html<https://woposs.unine.ch/form.html> More annotated texts will be added in the next few months. If you have any query, we are happy to answer. WoPoss is a project funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation (project no. PP0001_176778). Best wishes, Francesca Dell’Oro (PI) and the WoPoss team [Université de Neuchâtel]<https://www.unine.ch/>[Facebook]<https://www.facebook.com/UniNeuchatel>[Instagram]<https://www.instagram.com/unineuchatel/>[Twitter]<https://twitter.com/unineuchatel>[Youtube]<https://www.youtube.com/user/uninepromotion>[LinkedIn]<https://www.linkedin.com/edu/school?id=10933&trk=edu-hp-follow-name> Francesca Dell'Oro Professeure assistante Institut des Sciences du Langage Université de Neuchâtel Bureau 106 Pierre-à-Mazel 7 CH-2000 Neuchâtel Tél. +41 32 718 1772 www.unine.ch<http://www.unine.ch/>

[QPP++] 3rd CfP Query Performance Prediction and Its Evaluation in New Tasks @ CIKM 2022
by Guglielmo Faggioli 29 Aug '22

29 Aug '22

Query Performance Prediction (QPP) is currently primarily used for ad-hoc retrieval tasks. The Information Retrieval (IR) field is reaching new heights thanks to recent advances in large language models and neural networks, as well as emerging new ways of searching, such as conversational search. Such advancements are quickly spreading to adjacent research areas, including QPP, necessitating a reconsideration of how we perform and evaluate QPP. Important Dates --------------------- Submission deadline: September 2, 2022 Notification of acceptance: September 27, 2022 Camera ready: October 06, 2022 Conference days: October 17-20, 2022 Workshop day: October 21, 2022 Call for Papers ------------------- This workshop aims at stimulating discussion on three main aspects concerning the future of QPP: What are the emerging QPP challenges posed by new methods and technologies, including but not limited to dense retrieval, contextualized embeddings, and conversational search? How might these new techniques be used to improve the quality of QPP? Can we claim that the current techniques for evaluating QPP are effective in all arising scenarios? Can we envision new evaluation protocols capable of granting generalizability in new domains? We plan to foster the discussion via two focus groups led by the workshop's organizers. The first focus group will identify what possibilities the QPP offers regarding new research models and IR tasks, primary considerations, issues linked to different aspects of the QPP, and the potentialities provided by new tools. The second focus group will gather the community’s concerns and solutions with respect to the QPP evaluation, especially for what concerns emerging domains. Themes and Topics The workshop will focus on the following themes: Query performance prediction applied to new tasks: Can existing QPP techniques be exploited, or which new QPP theories and models need to be devised for new tasks, such as passage-retrieval, Q&A, and conversational search? Query performance prediction exploiting new techniques: How can new technologies, such as contextualized embeddings, large language models, and neural networks be exploited to improve QPP? Evaluation of query performance prediction: How should QPP techniques be evaluated, including best practices, datasets, and resources, and, in particular, should QPP be evaluated the same for different IR tasks? It is possible to submit three main categories of manuscripts to the workshop: Full papers: up to 6 pages. Short papers: up to 3 pages. Discussion papers: up to 3 pages. All manuscripts are expected to address the workshop's themes as mentioned above. Full and short papers should contain innovative ideas and their experimental evaluation. We are also interested in works containing (methodologically sound) preliminary results and incremental endeavours. Discussion papers should include work with or without preliminary results, position papers, and papers describing failures. Such papers should foster the discussion and thus are not required to contain full-fledged results. In this sense, the experimental evaluation of the submitted discussion paper is appreciated but not required. We are also interested in receiving contributions regarding (methodologically sound) failed experiments; since the workshop will focus on new research directions, we consider it necessary also to discuss the reasons and causes of failures. Each manuscript will be peer-reviewed by at least two program committee members Accepted papers will be published online as a volume of the CEUR-WS proceeding series.
