Call for Papers
Slav-NLP: The 10th Workshop on NLP for Slavic languages
co-located with ACL 2025, Vienna, Austria
31 July or 1 August 2025
http://bsnlp.cs.helsinki.fi/
Submission Deadline: 27 April 2025
WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION
The 10th edition of the Slav-NLP Workshop at ACL 2025 Sponsored by SIGSLAV: The ACL Special Interest Group on Slavic NLP
Slavic languages play an important role due to their diverse cultural heritage and wide use — over 400M speakers worldwide. Current political and economic developments in Central/ Eastern Europe thrust the Slavic-speaking societies — and their languages — into sharp focus, especially in light of rapid technological advancements and expanding consumer markets.
Research on theoretical and applied topics in the context of Slavic languages is still lagging in the community. Linguistic phenomena that are common to the Slavic languages — rich morphology, free word order, etc. — make NLP for these languages a challenging task. The Slav-NLP Workshop gathers researchers from academia and industry. It aims to stimulate research in Slavic NLP, and foster the creation of tools and resources. The Workshops provides a forum for exchange of ideas and experience, discussing current challenges, and making the available resources widely-known. The structural similarity, as well as the easily recognizable core vocabulary and inflectional inventory spanning this large language group creates a special environment, where researchers can appreciate the shared problems and communicate naturally — despite the lack of mutual intelligibility. We are glad to have an opportunity to organize Slav-NLP again in Central Europe.
This Workshop addresses Natural Language Processing (NLP) for the Slavic languages. The NLP tasks in urgent need of attention include:
language modeling,
morphological, syntactic and semantic analysis,
lexical semantics,
named-entity recognition,
text normalization and processing non-standard language,
coreference resolution,
information extraction,
question answering,
text summarization,
machine translation,
development of linguistic resources,
development and assessment of large language models,
text classification,
text generation,
disinformation detection,
fact verification,
sentiment analysis.
This Workshop continues the proud tradition established by the 9 previous (B)SNLP Workshops.
IMPORTANT DATES
