TL;DR; The submission deadline has been extended to 6 May

The 5th iteration of the NALOMA (Natural Logic Meets 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 (to appear in the ACL anthology proceedings) and (non-archival) extended abstracts. The workshop is co-located with ESSLLI (https://2025.esslli.eu), 4-8 August 2025, Bochum (Germany). The submission deadline has been extended to 6 May 2025.
