The 8th Workshop on Noisy User-generated Text (WNUT @COLING 2022)
The WNUT Workshop will be collocated with COLING 2022 (Hybrid - Gyeongju, Republic of Korea). The website for the workshop is at:

The WNUT workshop focuses on Natural Language Processing applied to noisy user-generated text, such as that found in social media, online reviews, crowdsourced data, web forums, clinical records, and language learner essays.
We seek submissions of long and short papers on original and unpublished work (same format and page limit as COLING main conference). All accepted submissions will be presented as posters. Additionally, selected submissions will be presented orally. We have Best Paper Awards sponsored by Megagon Labs this year.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
* NLP Preprocessing of Noisy Text
- Part of speech tagging
- Named entity tagging, including a wide range of categories, e.g. product names
- Chunking of user-generated text
