[Call for Abstracts] Deadline extended: Analysis of Linguistic VAriation for BEtter Tools (ALVABET) within the LLcD 2024 Conference
by mathilde.regnault＠ling.uni-stuttgart.de 23 Apr '24

23 Apr '24

Call for Abstracts: Analysis of Linguistic VAriation for BEtter Tools (ALVABET) within the LLcD 2024 Conference (https://llcd2024.sciencesconf.org/) Workshop Variation plays a particularly important role in linguistic change, since every change stem from a state of variation; but each state of variation does not necessarily end up with a change: the new variant can disappear, or variation can linger but in different contexts. Access to sufficient amounts of data and their quantification, in order to detect the emergence of new variants as precisely as possible, and the recession or even disappearance of others, is a precious tool for the study of variations, whatever their dimensions (diachronic, diatopic, …) and in whatever field (syntax, morphology, …). The appearance of large corpora has thus renewed the study of variation. NLP has contributed largely to this renewal, providing tools for the enrichment and the exploration of these corpora. In return, linguistic analysis can help explain some of these errors and thus deepen the picture where performance metrics tend to flatten out everything under a single number, or even help improve the performances. NLP annotation tools, such as syntactic parsers and morphological taggers, reach great performances nowadays when they are applied on similar data to those seen during their development. However, they quickly drop as the target data diverges from those of the training scenario. This raises a number of issues when it comes to using automatically annotated data to perform linguistic studies. This workshop aims at exploring bilateral contributions between Natural Language Processing and variation analysis in the fields of morphosyntax and syntax, from diachronic and diatopic perspectives but also from genre, domain or form of writing, without any restriction on the languages of interest. We warmly welcome submissions dealing with the issues and contributions of applying NLP to variation analysis : • Quantification of variation along its different dimensions (both external and internal ones as well as in interaction with each other); • Impact of annotation errors on the study of marginal structures (emergent or recessing); • Syntactic variation when it is induced by semantic changes. But also submissions dealing with the contributions of variation analysis to NLP: • Variation mitigation (spelling standardisation...); • Domain adaptation (domain referring here to any variation dimension); • Error analysis (in and out of domain) in light of known variation phenomena, amongst which (de-)grammaticalisation; • The evolution of grammatical categories and its impact on prediction models; • The place of variation studies in NLP in the large language model era. These themes are only suggestions, and the workshop will gladly host any submission that deals substantially with the reciprocal contributions between NLP and variation analysis in the mentioned fields. Full workshop description: https://llcd2024.sciencesconf.org/data/pages/WS12Eng.pdf Important Dates • Apr 30, 2024: extended deadline for abstract submission • May 15, 2024: Notification • Sep 9-11: Conference Submissions Abstracts must clearly state the research questions, approach, method, data and (expected) results. They must be anonymous: not only must they not contain the presenters' names, affiliations or addresses, but they must avoid any other information that might reveal their author(s). They should not exceed 500 words (including examples, but excluding bibliographical references). Abstracts will be assessed by two members of the Scientific Committee and (one of) the workshop organizers.

CALAMITA - Challenge the Abilities of LAnguage Models in ITAlian - Call for Challenges
by Malvina Nissim 23 Apr '24

23 Apr '24

*CALAMITA - Challenge the Abilities of LAnguage Models in ITAlian* *Special event co-located with the Tenth Italian Conference on Computational Linguistics - CLiC-it 2024 Pisa, 4 - 6 December, 2024 - https://clic2024.ilc.cnr.it/ <https://clic2024.ilc.cnr.it/> * *Upcoming deadline: 17th May 2024, challenge pre-proposal submission! Pre-proposal form: *https://forms.gle/u4rSt9yXHHYquKrB6 *Project Description* AILC, the Italian Association for Computational Linguistics, is launching a *collaborative* effort to develop a dynamic and growing benchmark for evaluating LLMs’ capabilities in Italian. In the *long term*, we aim to establish a suite of tasks in the form of a benchmark which can be accessed through a shared platform and a live leaderboard. This would allow for ongoing evaluation of existing and newly developed Italian or multilingual LLMs. In the *short term*, we are looking to start building this benchmark through a series of challenges collaboratively construed by the research community. Concretely, this happens through the present call for challenge contributions. In a similar style to standard Natural Language Processing shared tasks, *participants are asked to contribute a task and the corresponding dataset with which a set of LLMs should be challenged*. Participants are expected to provide an explanation and motivation for a given task, a dataset that reflects that task together with any information relevant to the dataset (provenance, annotation, distribution of labels or phenomena, etc.) and a rationale for putting that together that way. Evaluation metrics and example prompts should also be provided. Existing relevant datasets are also very welcome, together with related publications if available. All of the proposed challenges either with existing datasets or new datasets, will have to follow the challenge template, which will be distributed in due time, towards the write-up of a challenge paper. In this first phase, all prospective participants are asked to submit a *pre-proposal* by filling in this form https://forms.gle/u4rSt9yXHHYquKrB6. Please fill in all the fields so we can get an idea of what challenge you’d like to propose, how the model should be prompted to perform the task, where you’d get the data and how much, whether it’s already available, etc. The organizers will examine the submitted pre-proposals and select those challenges that comply with the template’s requirements, with an eye to balancing different challenge types. The selected challenges will be expanded with a full dataset, longer descriptions, etc. according to the aforementioned template which will be distributed later. The final report of each accepted challenge must provide the code for the evaluation with an example that must smoothly run on a pre-selected base LLM (most likely LLaMa-2) which will be communicated by the organisers in the second phase. All reports will be published as CEUR Proceedings related to the CALAMITA event. Subsequently, all challenge organisers who wish to be involved can participate in a broader follow-up paper, targeting a top venue, which will describe the whole benchmark, procedures, results, and analyses. Once this first challenge set is put together, the *CALAMITA organizers* will run *zero* or *few* shots experiments with a selection of LLMs, and write a final report. No tuning materials or experiments are expected at this stage of the project. *Deadlines (tentative)* - *17th May 2024: pre-proposal submission* - 27th May 2024: notification of pre-proposal acceptance - End of May 2024: distribution of challenge paper template and further instructions - 2nd September 2024: data and report submission - 30th September 2024: benchmark ready with reports for each challenge (after light review) - October-November 2024: running selected models on the benchmark with analyses - 4th-6th December 2024: CLIC-it Pisa (special event co-located with CLIC-it 2024) *Website:* https://clic2024.ilc.cnr.it/calamita (under construction) *Mail: *calamita.ailc(a)gmail.com *Organizers* - Pierpaolo Basile (University of Bari Aldo Moro) - Danilo Croce (University of Rome, Tor Vergata) - Malvina Nissim (University of Groningen) - Viviana Patti (University of Turin)

If committing an ARR paper to INLG, the submission is also made through the INLG 2024 paper submission site, indicating the link of the paper on OpenReview. The deadline for committing an ARR paper to INLG is June 24, 2024, 11:59:59 AOE, and the last eligible ARR paper submission deadline for INLG 2024 is May 24, 2024. It is important to note that when committing an ARR paper to INLG, it should be submitted through the INLG 2024 paper submission site, just like a direct submission paper, with the only difference being the need to provide the OpenReview link to the paper and to provide an optional author response to reviews. Demo papers should be submitted directly through the INLG 2024 paper submission site (https://softconf.com/n/inlg2024/) by June 24, 2024, 11:59:59 AOE. All accepted papers will be published in the INLG 2024 proceedings and included in the ACL anthology. A paper accepted for presentation at INLG 2024 must not have been presented at any other meeting with publicly available proceedings. Dual submission to other conferences is permitted, provided that authors clearly indicate this in the submission form. If the paper is accepted at both venues, the authors will need to choose which venue to present at, since they can not present the same paper twice. Finally, at least one of the authors of an accepted paper must register to attend the conference. **Awards** INLG 2024 will present several awards to recognize outstanding achievements in the field. These awards are: • Best Long Paper Award: This award will be given to the best long paper submission based on its originality, impact, and contribution to the field of NLG. • Best Short Paper Award: This award will be given to the best short paper submission based on its originality, impact, and contribution to the field of NLG. • Best Demo Paper Award: This award will recognize the best demo paper submitted to the conference.
