Dear colleagues,
We have a couple of updates regarding the ongoing GEM shared task https://gem-benchmark.com/shared_task:
*Event*: We are delighted to announce that the GEM shared task is endorsed by SIGGEN https://siggen-acl.github.io/index.html, and will be part of the Generation Challenges (GenChal) at INLG’24. Participants will have the possibility to (i) publish a system description in the GenChal proceedings (available on the ACL anthology, see GenChal’23 Proceedings https://aclanthology.org/volumes/2023.inlg-genchal/), and (ii) present their results during the GenChal session at the INLG conference in Tokyo in September 2024.
*Pre-registration*: The deadline for pre-registering your system submissions is approaching (March 8th 23.59 AoE)! Note that it will be possible for participants to pre-register after March 8th, but that doing so does not guarantee a participation in the human evaluation. Pre-registration link https://nyustern.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_8qRqfdN3qBy3Bqe.
*Important dates* March 8: Deadline for pre-registering systems (ensuring human evaluation in languages selected by the organisers). April 5: Deadline for output submission (all subtasks). April 6: Human evaluation starts. TBD: System descriptions due. Late September: GenChal@INLG’24.
best, simon, on behalf of the GEM Human Evaluation Team
