The first workshop on Structure and Generalization in Multimodal Language Understanding (SAGE-MLU) will be held at Vrije Universiteit (VU) Amsterdam on March 10 and 11, 2025.

The SAGE-MLU workshop brings together speakers and participants to explore the questions of whether and how current language models can use abstract conceptual and linguistic structure to generalize in human-like ways.

The program is split over two days and features four keynote speakers, interactive discussion panels, and a hackathon. For additional information on the program, please see the workshop website https://sites.google.com/view/sage-mlu-2025/home?authuser=0.

We welcome researchers and students from various fields, such as (computational) linguistics, conversation analysis, computer science, AI, psychology, neuroscience, and philosophy. We especially encourage Master's & PhD students to attend the workshop, as the workshop is also geared towards promoting research collaborations.
