The 6th iteration of the NALOMA (Natural Language Meets Logic and Machine Learning) workshop invites submissions on any (theoretical or computational) aspect of hybrid methods concerning Natural Language Understanding and Reasoning (NLU&R). The topics include but are not limited to:
- Hybrid NLU&R systems that integrate logic-based/symbolic methods with neural networks - Explainable NLU&R (with structured explanations) - Opening the black-box of deep learning in NLU&R - Downstream applications of hybrid NLU&R systems - Probabilistic semantics for NLU&R - Comparison and contrast between symbolic and deep learning work on NLU&R - Creation, criticism, refinement, and augmentation of NLU&R datasets - (Dis)Alignment of humans and machines on NLU&R tasks - Addressing inherent human disagreements in NLU&R tasks - Generalization of NLU&R systems - Fine-grained evaluation of NLU&R systems
NALOMA accepts archival papers (long, short, and demo) to appear in the ACL anthology proceedings and non-archival extended abstracts. The workshop is co-located with ESSLLI (https://2026.esslli.eu), 3-7 August, Prague, Czech Republic. The submission deadline is 30 April.
