Theme: The role of humanities in digital humanities and artificial
intelligence
The Digital Humanities Association of Southern Africa (DHASA) is
pleased to announce its fifth conference, focusing on the theme The
role of humanities in digital humanities and artificial intelligence.
In a region where the field of Digital Humanities is still relatively
underdeveloped, this conference aims to address this gap and foster
growth and collaboration in the field. The conference offers an
opportunity for researchers interested in showcasing their work in the
broad field of Digital Humanities to come together. By doing so, the
conference provides a comprehensive overview of the current state-of-
the-art in Digital Humanities, particularly within the Southern Africa
region. As such, we welcome submissions related to Digital Humanities
research conducted by individuals from Southern Africa or research
focused on the geographical area of Southern Africa in the broad sense.
Furthermore, the conference serves as a platform for information
sharing and networking among researchers passionate about Digital
Humanities. By bringing together experts working on Digital Humanities
in Southern Africa or with a focus on Southern Africa, we aim to
promote collaboration and facilitate further research in this dynamic
field. In addition to the main conference, affiliated workshops and
tutorials will be organised, providing researchers with valuable
insights into novel technologies and tools. These supplementary events
are designed for researchers interested in specific aspects of Digital
Humanities or seeking practical information to enter or advance their
knowledge in the field.
The DHASA conference welcomes interdisciplinary contributions from
researchers in various domains of Digital Humanities, including, but
not limited to, language, literature, visual art, performance and
theatre studies, media studies, music, history, sociology, psychology,
language technologies, library studies, philosophy, methodologies,
software and computation, AI, and more. Our goal is to cultivate an
inclusive scientific community of practice within Digital Humanities.
RAIL 2025 Workshop information:
The sixth Resources for African Indigenous Languages (RAIL) workshop
will be co-located with the Digital Humanities Association of Southern
Africa (DHASA) 2025 conference at the CSIR International Convention
Centre in Pretoria, South Africa, on 10 November 2025. The RAIL
workshop is an interdisciplinary platform for researchers working on
African indigenous languages resources such as natural languages
processing (NLP) tools, Human Language Technologies (HLT), data
collections, and annotations. This workshop aims to foster a
scientific community of practice that focuses on computational
linguistic tools and data that are designed for or applied to the
indigenous languages of Africa. Many African languages are under-
resourced while only a few are considered to be somewhat better
resourced. These languages often share interesting properties such as
writing systems, making them different from most high-resourced
languages. From a computational perspective, these languages lack
enough corpora to undertake high level development of NLP and HLT
tools, which in turn impedes the development of African languages in
these areas. During previous workshops, it was noted that the problems
and solutions presented were not only applicable to African languages
but were also relevant to many other low-resource languages across the
world. Because these languages share similar challenges, this workshop
provides researchers with opportunities to work collaboratively on
issues of language resource development and learn from each other.The
RAIL workshop has several aims. First, the workshop brings together
researchers who work on African indigenous languages, forming a
community of practice for people working on indigenous languages.
Second, the workshop aims to reveal currently unknown or unpublished
existing resources (corpora, NLP tools, and applications), resulting in
a better overview of the current state-of-the-art, and also allows for
discussions on novel, desired resources for future research in this
area. Third, it enhances sharing of knowledge on the development of
low-resource languages. Finally, it enables discussions on how to
improve the quality as well as availability of the resources.The
workshop has “Language resources in the age of large language models”
as its theme, but submissions on any topic related to properties of
African indigenous languages (including related non- African languages)
may be accepted.
Submission Guidelines for both RAIL and DHASA:
* Long papers: Authors may submit long papers with a maximum of 8
content pages and unlimited pages for references and appendices. The

General information
----
Language models And RePresentations (LARP) brings together researchers that explore how information is structured, encoded and used in computational language systems. We encourage submissions from fields of computational linguistics, AI, and NLP with focus on neuro-symbolic or neurexplicit approaches to language. We also accept submissions for other related topics (see examples below).
The conference is organised by the Centre for Linguistic Theory and Studies in Probability (CLASP, https://gu-clasp.github.io/), University of Gothenburg. The conference will be held between September 8 and 9 in Gothenburg, Sweden (on-site and hybrid).
Topics of interest
----
We hope to see innovative work that considers neural and symbolic learning and processing in terms of different modelling perspectives. Papers are invited on the following topics as they relate to natural language:
- Neuro-symbolic integration: novel hybrid frameworks combining symbolic representations with neural network learning for enhanced reasoning and natural language processing
- Explainable machine learning: techniques that allow for better interpretability, transparency, and explainability of neural, symbolic and neuro-symbolic architectures
- Logical constraints in neural networks: methods that use logical structures (e.g., knowledge bases, ontologies) for post-hoc or inherent explainability
- Automated reasoning systems providing human-interpretable rationales for decisions
- Symbolic planning and control in neural workflows
- Application-driven scenarios (robots, autonomous systems) showcasing benefits of symbolic approaches
- Techniques that integrate symbolic representations into text or multimodal generation
- Approaches that enforce domain knowledge, consistency, or adherence to constraints in text and/or multimodal generation
- Fine-tuning and in-context learning strategies that incorporate logical or rule-based knowledge
This list is illustrative but is not intended to be exhaustive.
Submission requirements and open submission tracks
NEW!!! OpenReview Commitment Track
We welcome papers that have already been fully reviewed in any OpenReview-hosted venue relevant to LARP such as ACL Rolling Review (ARR), SemDial, CoNLL, COLM, and similar conferences or workshops. If your paper was reviewed in ARR, simply paste the public OpenReview link (which includes the paper, reviews, and meta-review) into the submission form. If your paper was reviewed in another OpenReview-hosted venue, please email the Programme Chairs first so that we can confirm access to the reviews before you submit. Submission to this track can be non-archival on request. Both the submission and its reviews will be evaluated by the program committee for their relevance to the conference topic. To submit, please visit https://openreview.net/group?id=CLASP/LARP/2025/ARR_Commitment.
Non-archival track
At the time of submission, authors may indicate that their paper should be considered for the non-archival track. The format for non-archival submissions is the same for both long and short papers as it is for the archival submissions. Non-archival papers will not undergo the peer review process. They will be evaluated by the programme committee for clarity and content relevance before the decision by the PC is made. Non-archival papers do not need to be anonymous. If accepted, they are to be published on the conference website and presented as posters. We will not ask for camera-ready version for non-archival submissions as they can be submitted in their final form.
Poster abstracts
We invite researchers to submit abstracts in the above areas of interest. Abstract submissions are non-archival. This is a great opportunity to get feedback on work in progress or to present previously published work to a new audience. The deadline for abstract submission is the same as for non-archival papers. Notifications of acceptance will be sent out by August 8, 2025. Abstract submissions should be .pdf files and use the LaTeX or Word templates provided for ACL submissions (https://github.com/acl-org/acl-style-files). Abstracts should not exceed 2 pages (supplementary materials, appendices, a section on limitations and ethical concerns are not included) and be submitted via OpenReview system at https://openreview.net/group?id=CLASP/LARP/2025/Conference. The acceptance decision on abstracts will go through the same procedure as papers for the non-archival track. Accepted abstracts will be presented as posters.
Closed submission tracks
----
Archival track
Archival track will feature the following types of submissions to appear in conference proceedings: we accept long papers (max 8 pages) and short papers (max 4 pages). Long and short papers must describe substantial, original, and unpublished research. Supplementary materials, appendices, a section on limitations and ethical concerns do not count towards the page limit. Archival accepted papers will be published in the 2025 ACL Anthology as a CLASP Conference Proceedings. Papers should be electronically submitted via the OpenReview system at https://openreview.net/group?id=CLASP/LARP/2025/Conference. Submissions should be .pdf files and use the LaTeX or Word templates provided for ACL submissions (https://github.com/acl-org/acl-style-files). Archival submissions must be anonymous. Please make sure that you select the right track when submitting your paper. Contact the organisers if you have questions.
Concurrent Submissions
----
Papers that have been or will be submitted to other conferences or publications must indicate this at submission time using a footnote on the title page of the submissions. We will not accept publications or presentation papers that overlap significantly in content or results with papers that will be (or have been) published elsewhere.
Authors of papers accepted for presentation at LARP must notify the program chairs by the camera-ready deadline as to whether the paper will be presented. All accepted papers must be presented at the conference to appear in the Proceedings.
Camera Ready Versions
----
Camera ready versions must be deanonymised. Archival submissions get 1 more page to address comments from reviewers: long papers can be maximum up to 9 pages, short papers can be maximum up to 5 pages.
Organisers
----
LARP is organised by the Centre for Linguistic Theory and Studies in Probability (CLASP, https://gu-clasp.github.io/) at the Department of Philosophy, Linguistics and Theory of Science (FLoV), University of Gothenburg. CLASP focuses its research on the application of probabilistic and information theoretic methods to the analysis of natural language. CLASP is concerned both with understanding the cognitive foundations of language and developing efficient language technology.

Deadline extension: Sixth Workshop on Resources for African Indigenous
Language (RAIL)
Co-located with DHASA 2025
https://sadilar.org/rail-2025/
Due to several requests, we have decided to extend the deadlne
NEW DEADLINE: 28 July 2025
RAIL Workshop date: 10 November 2025
DHASA Conference dates: 10-14 November 2025
Venue: CSIR International Convention Centre.
The sixth RAIL workshop website: https://sadilar.org/rail-2025/
DHASA website: https://digitalhumanities.org.za/
The sixth Resources for African Indigenous Languages (RAIL) workshop
will be co-located with the Digital Humanities Association of Southern
Africa (DHASA) 2025 conference at the CSIR International Convention
Centre in Pretoria, South Africa, on 10 November 2025. The RAIL
workshop is an interdisciplinary platform for researchers working on
African indigenous languages resources such as natural languages
processing (NLP) tools, Human Language Technologies (HLT), data
collections, and annotations. This workshop aims to foster a
scientific community of practice that focuses on computational
linguistic tools and data that are designed for or applied to the
indigenous languages of Africa.
Many African languages are under-resourced while only a few are
considered to be somewhat better resourced. These languages often share
interesting properties such as writing systems, making them different
from most high-resourced languages. From a computational perspective,
these languages lack enough corpora to undertake high level development
of NLP and HLT tools, which in turn impedes the development of African
languages in these areas. During previous workshops, it was noted that
the problems and solutions presented were not only applicable to
African languages but were also relevant to many other low-resource
languages across the world. Because these languages share similar
challenges, this workshop provides researchers with opportunities to
work collaboratively on issues of language resource development and
learn from each other.
The RAIL workshop has several aims. First, the workshop brings together
researchers who work on African indigenous languages, forming a
community of practice for people working on indigenous languages.
Second, the workshop aims to reveal currently unknown or unpublished
existing resources (corpora, NLP tools, and applications), resulting in
a better overview of the current state-of-the-art, and also allows for
discussions on novel, desired resources for future research in this
area. Third, it enhances sharing of knowledge on the development of
low-resource languages. Finally, it enables discussions on how to
improve the quality as well as availability of the resources.
The workshop has “Language resources in the age of large language
models” as its theme, but submissions on any topic related to
properties of African indigenous languages (including related non-
African languages) may be accepted. Suggested topics include (but are
not limited to) the following:
* Digital representations of linguistic structures
* Descriptions of corpora or other data sets of African indigenous
languages
* Building resources for (under-resourced) African indigenous languages
* Developing and using African indigenous languages in the digital age
* Effectiveness of digital technologies for the development of African
indigenous languages
* Revealing unknown or unpublished existing resources for African
indigenous languages
* Developing desired resources for African indigenous languages
* Improving quality, availability and accessibility of African
indigenous language resources
Submission requirements:
We invite papers on original, unpublished work related to the topics of
the workshop. Submissions, presenting completed work, may consist of up
to eight (8) pages of content plus additional pages of references. The
final camera-ready version of accepted long papers are allowed one
additional page of content (up to 9 pages) so that reviewers’ feedback
can be incorporated. Papers should be formatted according to the DHASA
style sheet which is provided on the Journal of the Digital Humanities
Association of Southern Africa website
(https://upjournals.up.ac.za/index.php/dhasa/about). Reviewing is
double-blind, so make sure to anonymise your submission (e.g., do not
provide author names, affiliations, project names, etc.) Limit the
amount of self citations (anonymised citations should not be used). The
RAIL workshop follows the DHASA submission requirements.
Please submit papers in PDF format (the submission link is available on
the website). Accepted papers will be published in proceedings linked
to the DHASA conference.
