Call for Participation in Our Upcoming Shared Task: Software Mention Detection (SOMD 2025)
by sharmila.upadhyaya＠gesis.org 25 Feb '25

25 Feb '25

Dear all, We are excited to invite you to participate in our upcoming shared task, Software Mention Detection (SOMD) 2025 co-located with the SDP workshop, ACL 2025 in Vienna, Austria. This event is designed to encourage innovation and collaboration in the Information Extraction field, focusing on software mentioned in scholarly articles. Task Overview: Software plays an essential role in scientific research and is considered one of the crucial entity types in scholarly documents. However, the software is usually not cited formally in academic documents, resulting in various informal software mentions. Automatic identification and disambiguation of software mentions, related attributes, and the purpose of software mentions contributes to the better understanding, accessibility, and reproducibility of research but is a challenging task. This competition invites participants to develop a system that detects software mentions and their attributes as named entities from scholarly texts and classifies the relationships between these entity pairs. The dataset includes sentences from full-text scholarly documents annotated with Named Entities and Relations. Participation Details: To participate, please register using this link [https://www.codabench.org/competitions/5840/]. All necessary materials, including detailed task guidelines and data, will be provided upon registration. Competition Timeline Overview • Competition Registration starts on February 24, 2025 • First phase: Training and Test Dataset release: February 28, 2025 • The first phase ends on: March 18, 2025 • Second phase data release: March 18, 2025 • The competition ends on: April 3, 2025 • Paper submission deadline: April 17, 2025 • Notification of Acceptance: May 1, 2025 • Camera-ready Paper Deadline for Workshop: May 16, 2025. • Workshop Date: July 21-August 1, 2025 Successful entries will be featured in the Proceedings of the Workshop on Scholarly Document Processing (SDP).

Call for participation in "Machine Translation Metrics for Indigenous languages" task, AmericasNLP 2025
by ali.marashian＠colorado.edu 25 Feb '25

25 Feb '25

The AmericasNLP 2025 Shared Task on machine translation metrics for Indigenous languages is a competition intended to motivate the advancement of automatic evaluation metrics for machine translation, with a focus on translation into Indigenous languages. Participants will build metrics to evaluate the quality of translations from Spanish into Guarani, Bribri, and Nahuatl. Many Indigenous languages of the Americas have linguistic characteristics that are uncommon in the languages typically studied in natural language processing (NLP). For example, Indigenous languages can often be polysynthetic, and they frequently lack orthographic standardization, both of which pose challenges for, e.g., the widely used BLEU and ChrF scores. The goal of the AmericasNLP 2025 shared task on machine translation metrics for Indigenous languages is to encourage researchers to tackle the challenge of creating automatic evaluation metrics for MT systems with a focus on Indigenous languages. Shared task description: https://turing.iimas.unam.mx/americasnlp/2025_st_3.html Registration: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfmV9gyab03pGGzzDJ9DohOf9AkDaZf_94… AmericasNLP will be held Albuquerque, New Mexico (NAACL 2025). The workshop date is May 4, 2025. Thanks, Ali, on behalf of the AmericasNLP team

by Matteo Negri 25 Feb '25

25 Feb '25

Apologies for cross-posting We are pleased to announce the Model Compression track <https://iwslt.org/2025/model-compression> at IWSLT 2025 <https://iwslt.org/2025/> (22nd International Conference on Spoken Language Translation, in conjunction with ACL 2025 <https://2025.aclweb.org/>). Motivation Text and speech foundation models have revolutionized many natural language processing tasks, including speech-to-text translation. However, their large size and high computational demands present significant challenges for real-world deployment, particularly in resource-constrained environments such as mobile devices, embedded systems, and edge computing. Reducing the size of large, general-purpose models while preserving—or even enhancing—their performance in specific tasks or language settings is essential for making them more efficient, accessible, and sustainable. The Task in a Nutshell The Model Compression track evaluates participants’ ability to apply model compression techniques to a large multilingual speech-to-text model, the need for accessibility and deployment feasibility with the requirement for good performance in speech-to-text translation. Participants are invited to apply pruning, quantization, distillation, or other compression techniques to optimize Qwen2-Audio <https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen2-Audio-7B> (8.2B parameters, 16GB storage) for English-German and English-Chinese speech translation. Submissions and Evaluation Submissions under either of the two allowed data conditions (constrained or unconstrained, depending on the datasets used to support the model compression process) will be categorized into five compression bins, ranging from less than 200MB to 4GB of storage demand, and evaluated based on model size and COMET <https://huggingface.co/Unbabel/wmt22-comet-da> translation scores. Multiple submissions are allowed, with human evaluation conducted for the top-performing models. Guidelines, details, and contact information For submission guidelines and further details, please visit the IWSLT 2025 Model Compression track web page <https://iwslt.org/2025/model-compression> or contact us at iwslt_offline_task_submission(a)fbk.eu. Conference Information IWSLT 2025 will be co-located with ACL 2025 <https://2025.aclweb.org/>, taking place from 31 July to 1 August 2025 in Vienna, Austria.

by Georg Rehm 25 Feb '25

25 Feb '25

2nd International Workshop on Natural Scientific Language Processing and Research Knowledge Graphs (NSLP 2025) 01 or 02 June 2025 (tbc) Portoroz, Slovenia (NSLP 2025 is co-located with ESWC 2025) https://nfdi4ds.github.io/nslp2025/ Scientific research is almost exclusively published in unstructured text formats, which are not readily machine-readable. While technological approaches can help to get this flood of scientific information and new knowledge under control, the development of such technologies is very complex in practice and hinders the creation of infrastructures and systems to track research and assist the scientific community with applications such as dedicated scientific search engines and recommender systems. The 2nd International Workshop on Natural Scientific Language Processing and Research Knowledge Graphs (NSLP) aims to bring together researchers working on the processing, analysis, transformation and exploitation of scientific language and research knowledge graphs including all relevant sub-topics. NSLP 2025 is a full-day workshop co-located with ESWC 2025 <https://2025.eswc-conferences.org/> to be held in Portoroz, Slovenia on 01 or 02 June 2025 (to be confirmed). Topics of interest include, but are not limited to Research/Scientific Knowledge Graphs (RKGs/SKGs) and other forms of structured scientific knowledge representation Information Extraction for RKGs/SKGs Question Answering over RKGs/SKGs Other types of usage of RKGs/SKGs for downstream applications Scientific LLMs: LLMs for Natural Scientific Language Processing (NSLP) NSLP (monolingual, cross-lingual, multilingual) Language Resources and Language Technologies for NSLP Domain-specific Adaptation of NSLP Methods Information Extraction from Scholarly Publications Classification of Scholarly Publications (document collections, individual documents, parts of documents) Summarisation of Scholarly Publications Scholarly Information Retrieval and Scientific Search Engines Digital Libraries of Scholarly Information Bibliometrics and Scientometrics Micropublications and Nanopublications Important Dates Paper submission deadline: 06 March 2025 Notification of acceptance: 03 April 2025 Camera-ready submission: 17 April 2025 Workshop: 01 or 02 June 2025 (tbc) Submissions The NSLP 2025 workshop invites submissions of regular long papers, position papers, and short papers presenting negative results, in-progress projects, and demos. We especially encourage submissions from junior researchers and students from diverse backgrounds. The workshop invites anonymous submissions of regular long papers (up to 15 pages without references and appendix) and short papers (up to 8 pages without references and appendix) presenting negative results, in-progress projects, and demos. In both categories, position papers can be submitted as well. Authors are permitted to include an optional appendix of up to 2 pages. However, reviewers will not be mandated to review the appendix; all papers must be self-contained. Reviewing will be performed double-blind. Reviewers will not actively try to identify the authors. Submissions must be in PDF, formatted in the style of the Springer Publications format for Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS). The proceedings of this workshop will be published as an Open Access volume in the Springer series Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence (LNAI), fully sponsored by the NFDI4DS project. At least one author per contribution must register for the conference for presentation as ESWC 2025 (including all workshops) is an in-person event. We will not accept work that is under review or has already been published in or accepted for publication in a journal, another conference, or another workshop. All submissions are done via EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences?conf=nslp2025 Keynote Speaker Michele Pasin, Digital Science, UK Shared Tasks NSLP 2025 offers three shared tasks: Shared Task 1: MESD: Metadata Extraction from Scholarly Documents The MESD shared task aims to improve metadata extraction from scholarly publications to enhance their FAIRness (Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, Reusability). Given training data of 500 labelled scientific documents along with their extracted text, participants are asked to develop models that output metadata of nine predefined labels. A label-free test set of 100 samples will be released for final evaluation, where systems will be ranked based on F1 score using Levenshtein Similarity (≥90%). Shared Task 2: ReadMe2KG: Github ReadMe to Knowledge Graph The ReadMe2KG shared task focuses on fine-grained Named Entity Recognition (NER) in GitHub README files to enhance the NFDI4DS knowledge graph. Participants will develop classifiers to identify 10 entity types, including “Dataset,” “Software,” and “Publication,” from a dataset of approximately 160 README files. The task aims to improve the integration of research-related metadata from GitHub repositories into the research data lifecycle. Shared Task 3: FoRC: Field of Research Classification The FoRC shared task aims to classify scientific documents into (sub-)topics according to a predefined schema. The second iteration of the task (see NSLP 2024 for the first) will focus on classifying computational linguistics publications taken from the ACL Anthology using the FoRC4CL data and taxonomy. Weakly supervised data will be added to FoRC4CL to create a bigger training corpus for classifying publications into 170 (sub-)topics of the field of computational linguistics. The NSLP 2025 website <https://nfdi4ds.github.io/nslp2025/> provides more information on the shared tasks.

CFP: The First Workshop on Integrating NLP and Psychology to Study Social Interactions (NLPSI)
by Neele Falk 24 Feb '25

24 Feb '25

*** CALL FOR PAPERS: The First Workshop on Integrating NLP and Psychology to Study Social Interactions (NLPSI) *** NLPSI will be co-located with the International AAAI Conference on Web and Social Media (ICWSM’25) and will take place in person on Monday 23 June 2025. ** Background and Scope ** Recent advances in natural language processing (NLP) have enabled not only the modeling of syntax and semantics but also the analysis of higher-level aspects of human communication—such as pragmatics, social dynamics, and emotional expression. Building on these advances, we can now address foundational questions that remain relatively unexplored in NLP: What are the core psychological processes that shape human behavior and communication? What factors influence how individuals perceive, process, and produce language, and how do these processes impact communication? Psychology can offer valuable insights into these questions, as it has been studying human behavior, perception and communication for years. At the same time, NLP enables us to go beyond controlled, small-scale experiments and conduct large-scale studies to better explore certain theories and research questions in psychology. NLPSI workshop seeks to bridge the two disciplines with a primary focus on NLP research that is grounded in psychological theories. This is an interdisciplinary workshop, and we invite researchers from NLP, Social Psychology, Communication Sciences, Affective Computing, and related fields to submit their work. We welcome submissions on topics including, but not restricted to, the following: - Psychological constructs (e.g., beliefs, motives, feelings, affect, personality). - Psychological studies, especially those focused on interaction. - Language and social identities, including ethnicity and group affiliation. - Communication patterns such as empathy, persuasion, and conflict resolution - Role of emotions in interpersonal communication, including phenomena like emotion contagion and interpersonal emotion regulation. - LLMs in experimental, interactional studies. - Cross-cultural variations in communication and behavior. ** Submission Types ** - Long papers (5 to 8 pages) that present original research, from preliminary findings to established contributions, including theory, experiments, or applications. - Short papers (up to 4 pages) that introduce emerging ideas, work in progress, or early-stage research with clear significance. - Extended Abstracts (up to 2 pages)that present ongoing work, position papers, previously published work, or research projects. Abstracts can be submitted either for inclusion in the proceedings (archival) or as non-archival contributions. ** Format ** All papers must follow the AAAI two-column, camera-ready style, for US Letter (8.5" x 11") paper, using Type 1 or TrueType fonts (available templates: AAAI 2025 Author Kit on Overleaf or AAAI 2025 Author Kit.zip [Word | LaTeX]). The review process will be double-blind. Please anonymize your papers by removing identifying information such as author names, affiliations, and funding details. ** Important Dates ** Paper submission deadline: March 21, 2025 Notification of acceptance: April 30, 2025 Camera ready: May 26, 2025 NLPSI Workshop day: June 23rd, 2025 Note: All deadlines are 11:59 pm UTC -12h (anywhere on earth). ** Organizers ** Aswathy Velutharambath, University of Bamberg Sofie Labat, Ghent University Neele Falk, University of Stuttgart Flor Miriam Plaza-del-Arco, Bocconi University Roman Klinger, University of Bamberg Véronique Hoste, Ghent University ** Website and Contact ** For further information and updates, visit the NLPSI website: nlpsi-workshop.github.io If you have any questions, please contact nlpsi-workshop-organizers.nlproc(a)uni-bamberg.de

The workshop will be held in-person and at least one author of the accepted papers will be required to register and present it in the workshop. The papers presented will be published in the workshop proceedings of the conference. Artificial Intelligence (AI) based models have a growing influence in social science research for analyzing behavioral patterns on social media and other digital platforms. Computational reproducibility has been a concern with these models as they deal with living data that is likely to change, contain personal information and therefore, ethical restrictions on their use. The workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners to discuss and exchange ideas towards potential interdisciplinary collaborations from computer science, social science, meta-science and other related disciplines. It provides a platform to present and critically analyze computational reproducibility guidelines and checklists for social sciences. The participants will focus on the open challenges and propose methodologies in computational reproducibility for social science towards improving research transparency, reproducibility, and reusability. Workshop participants are also encouraged to volunteer for and participate in the interactive replicability session attempting to replicate existing methods on sample data. (for participation in the interactive replicability session, please contact the workshop organizers at https://r2cass2025.wordpress.com/contact-2/) The workshop calls for theoretical and practical research contributions that employ qualitative, quantitative and analytical approaches including full papers, short papers, resource papers, position papers and posters on the topics (but not limited to): Data and software management in machine learning and natural language processing-driven studies Computational methods on sentiment analysis, bias analysis, toxicity, and sexism detection Text categorization and topic analysis Digital behavior analysis on social media and other digital platforms Computational reproducibility checklists and workflows in social science FAIR principles in ML research for social science Open Science applications and reproducibility challenges Metadata standards for ML/NLP research Tools for replicating complex social science models using web-based data Integration of open-source ML/NLP tools for web data analysis Submission guidelines As per AAAI-ICWSM guidelines, all papers must be submitted as high-resolution PDF files formatted in AAAI two-column, camera-ready style, for US Letter (8.5” x 11”) paper.
