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 is 25 April 2025.
