NALOMA 2025 : Natural Logic Meets Machine Learning

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),
28 July-8 August 2025, Bochum (Germany).
The submission deadline is 25 April.
