The two major conferences in the Baltic and Nordic regions, NoDaLida, organized by The Northern European Association for Language Technology (NEALT) and Baltic HLT are joining forces to organize NoDaLiDa/Baltic-HLT 2025 – The Joint 25th Nordic Conference on Computational Linguistics and 11th Baltic Conference on Human Language Technologies, to be held in Tallinn, Estonia, on March 2–5, 2025.
We would like to invite proposals for workshops, to be held on Sunday, March 2, immediately before the main conference, or on Wednesday, March 5, immediately after the main conference. Workshops can be scheduled either for a full day (morning and afternoon) or for half a day. The main conference will be held on-site only, without an online option, in order to facilitate networking. Workshops are free to offer online presentations if they wish to do so.
NoDaLiDa/Baltic-HLT addresses all aspects of natural language processing, speech processing, and computational linguistics, including work in closely related neighboring disciplines (such as, for example, machine learning, linguistics, digital humanities, or psychology) that is sufficiently formalized or applied to bear relevance to speech and language technologies.
Workshop proposals can be submitted in free-text form as a pdf file, by email to ‘nodalida_baltichlt_2025-workshops@googlegroups.com’. Workshop proposals must include adequate information on at least the following aspects:
- proposed workshop title
- topic and goals of the workshop
- target group and estimated attendance
- workshop organizer(s) and contact(s)
- mode of organization and program design, including:
- information on full versus half-day workshop
- information on the preference of workshop day: March 2, March 5, or either
- information on whether you plan an on-site only or hybrid event
