[3rd CFP] The LLMs4Subjects Shared Task -- LLMs meet Extreme Multi-label Classification of Records in Digital Libraries
by D'Souza, Jennifer 21 May '25

21 May '25

The 2nd LLMs4Subjects Shared Task: LLM-based Subject Tagging for the TIB Technical Library's Digital Catalog Theme: The Development of Energy- and Compute-Efficient LLM Systems Organized as part of the German Evaluation (GermEval 2025) Shared Task Series 10. - 12. September, 2025 Hildesheim, Germany (co-located with KONVENS 2025 - Conference on Natural Language Processing) 2nd LLMs4Subjects Shared Task: https://sites.google.com/view/llms4subjects-germeval/ Join the Codabench Competition: https://www.codabench.org/competitions/8373/ KONVENS 2025: https://konvens-2025.hs-hannover.de/about/ Task Overview LLMs4Subjects challenges the research community to develop cutting-edge LLM-based solutions for subject tagging of technical records from Leibniz University's Technical Library (TIBKAT). Participants are tasked with leveraging large language models (LLMs) to tag technical records using the GND taxonomy. The task involves bilingual language modeling, as systems must process technical documents in both German and English. Successful solutions may be integrated into the operational workflows of TIB, the Leibniz Information Centre for Science and Technology. With the rapid advancements in LLMs, the focus is shifting toward making these models more energy- and compute-efficient while maintaining high performance. Recent innovations, such as the DeepSeek series, have demonstrated how techniques like mixture-of-experts (MoE) and model distillation can significantly reduce computational costs without sacrificing effectiveness. The 2nd LLMs4Subjects shared task highlights the importance of efficiency in LLMs, encouraging participants to explore strategies that enhance model performance while optimizing for energy consumption and inference speed. We welcome approaches (but not limited to) that leverage model compression, quantization, efficient fine-tuning, and adaptive computation techniques to push the boundaries of sustainable AI development. Subtasks The 2nd LLMs4Subjects shared task organizes the following two subtasks: Subtask 1 - Multi-Domain Classification of Library Records Subtask 2 - Large-scale Multilabel Subject Indexing of Library Records Important Dates * Release of training data: March 8, 2025 * Release of testing data: May 30, 2025 * Deadline for system submissions: June 2, 2025 * Evaluation end: June 27, 2025 * Paper submission deadline: July 7, 2025 * Notification of acceptance: June 28, 2025 * Camera-ready paper due: August 15, 2025 * Workshop/KONVENS: September 10 - 12, 2025 (TBA) Note: Submit your system outputs on our Codabench live leaderboard at https://www.codabench.org/competitions/8373/

[CfP] IEEE FedCSIS 2025: "Digital Humanities, Computational Social Sciences and Economics Research (AI-HuSo)"
by Jens Dörpinghaus 20 May '25

20 May '25

Dear all, As the deadline is fast approaching, I would like to inform you about a call for papers for a thematic track at FedCSIS 2025 (IEEE #61123) called "AI in Digital Humanities, Computational Social Sciences and Economics Research (AI-HuSo)". FedCSIS 2025 will be held in Kraków, Poland, 14-17 September 2025. Paper submission (no extensions): 25.05.2025 See https://2025.fedcsis.org/thematic/ai-huso for details. This thematic session is dedicated to the computational study of Social Sciences, Economics and Humanities, including all subjects like, for example, education, labour market, history, religious studies, theology, cultural heritage, and informative predictions for decision-making and behavioural-science perspectives. While digital methods, intelligence systems, and AI have been emerging topics in these fields for several decades, this thematic session is not only limited to discoveries in these domains, but also dedicated to the reflections of these methods and results within the field of computer science. Thus, we are in particular interested in interdisciplinary exchange and dissemination with a clear focus on computational and AI methods for intelligence systems. Since there is a clear methodological overlap between these three domains and often similar algorithms and AI approaches are considered, we see this thematic session as place for interdisciplinary learning, discussing a joint toolbox as a support for scholars from these field with human and context-aware agents. The aim of this thematic session is thus to bridge the gap between scientific domains, foster interdisciplinary exchange and discuss how research questions from other domains challenge current computer science. In particular, we are interested in communications between researchers from different fields of computer science, social sciences, economics, humanities, and practitioners from different fields. Topics ====== The list of topics includes, but is not limited to: - AI and computational approaches for the interdisciplinary work of the social sciences, economics, and humanities: report on theoretical, methodological, experimental, and applied research. - AI and computational approaches for linking data from different digital resources, including online social networks, web and data mining, Knowledge Graphs, Ontologies. - AI and computational methods for text mining and textual analysis, for example texts within social sciences, digital literary studies, computational stylistics and stylometry. - Text encoding, computational linguistics, annotation guidelines, OCR for humanities, economics, and social sciences. - Network analysis, including social and historical network analysis. - Ethical and philosophical considerations of AI in society, education and humanties research In general, the applications of interest are included in the list below, but are not limited to: - Labour market research and qualification, including behavioral-science perspectives. - Education: Digital methods and systems, e-learning, adult education, etc. - Contributions to the application of technology to culture, history, and societal issues: For example, computational text analysis, analytical and visualization, databases, etc. - In particular, we welcome submissions which focus on a critical reflection of digital methods in the humanities, economics and social sciences within computer science. - Linking of digital resources, a discussion of data sets, their quality and reliability, combining quantitative and qualitative data, anonymization and data protection. Contact: ai-huso(a)fedcsis.org Submission rules ================ - Authors should submit their papers as Postscript, PDF or MSWord files. - The total length of a paper should not exceed 12 pages IEEE style (including tables, figures and references). More pages can be added, for an additional fee. IEEE style templates are available here. - Papers will be refereed and accepted on the basis of their scientific merit and relevance to the Topical Area. - Preprints containing accepted papers will be published online. - Only papers presented at the conference will be published in Conference Proceedings and submitted for inclusion in the IEEE Xplore® database. - Conference proceedings will be published in a volume with ISBN, ISSN and DOI numbers and posted at the conference WWW site. - Conference proceedings will be submitted for indexation according to information here. - Organizers reserve right to move accepted papers between FedCSIS Sessions. Extended versions of selected papers presented at the conference may be published in a volume entitled "Advances in Computational Social Sciences: AI, Computational Methods and Applications for the Study of Society", to be published by Springer. In addition, selected papers may be submitted to a special issue of AI entitled "Integrating Data Sources for Smarter Interdisciplinary AI Solutions: Challenges and Opportunities".
