Call for Papers: 3rd Workshop on Computational Linguistics for the Political and Social Sciences (CPSS 2023): https://sites.google.com/view/cpss2023konvens/home-page
* Workshop description *
This workshop aims at bringing together researchers and ideas from computational linguistics/NLP and the text-as-data community from political and social science to foster collaboration and catalyze further interdisciplinary research efforts between these communities.
* Potential topics *
- Modeling political communication with NLP (e.g. topic classification, position measurement) - Mining policy debates from heterogeneous textual sources - Modeling complex social constructs (e.g. populism, polarization, identity) with NLP methods - Political and social bias in language models - Methodological insights in interdisciplinary collaboration: workflows, challenges, best practices - Application of NLP methods to understand and support democratic decision making - Resources and tools for Political/Social Science research - … and more
* Important dates *
- Submission deadline: June 14, 2023 - Notification of acceptance: July 10, 2023 - Camera-ready deadline: July 20, 2023 - Workshop: September 22, 2023
The workshop is co-located with KONVENS 2023 in Ingolstadt (https://www.thi.de/konvens-2023).
* Submissions *
We solicit two types of submissions:
- archival papers describing original and unpublished work (long papers: max. 8 pages, references/appendix excluded; short papers: max 4 pages, references/appendix excluded). Accepted papers will be published in the ACL anthology. For the submission format, refer to the KONVENS template. - non-archival papers (1-page abstracts, references excluded) describing already published research or ongoing work
The two formats will meet the need of researchers from different communities, allowing the exchange of ideas in a "get to know each other" environment which we hope will foster future collaborations.
