Automatic Summarization for Creative Writing

Hybrid-Mode Workshop at COLING 2022 at Gyeongju, Republic of Korea, October, 2022

Call for Papers

This workshop aims to bring together researchers and promote exciting work in the domain of creative writing summarization, with the hope of contributing to the next generation of summarization systems. We welcome submissions broadly related, but not limited to:

Final CFP (deadline extension): The Second Financial Narrative Processing Workshop (FNP 2019)

The Second Financial Narrative Processing Workshop (FNP 2019)

To be held at The 22nd Nordic Conference on Computational Linguistics (NoDaLiDa’19) in Turku, Finland.

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION:

The New Frontiers in Summarization workshop at EMNLP 2017 aims to bring the community together to discuss current challenges and emerging directions of summarization, and how relevant areas, such as language generation or visualization, can form synergies with this field.

New trends of intelligent language processing systems are emerging, such as big data analysis, social network analysis, Internet of things, smart services, mobile computing, computer games, to name a few. Applications of these trends have been applied to various domains including education, travel and tourism, healthcare, among others.

BioASQ challenge on large-scale biomedical semantic indexing and question answering
(part of the CLEF 2014 QA track to take place in Sheffield, UK, 15-18 September, 2014)

Web site: http://bioasq.org/
twitter: https://twitter.com/bioasq
CLEF-QA site: http://nlp.uned.es/clef-qa/

The BioASQ challenge consists of two different tasks (Task 2a and Task 2b).

If you are interested in any of the following areas:

* Large-scale and hierarchical classification
* Machine learning
* Semantic Indexing, semantic similarity

SemEval 2014 - Task 3 Cross-Level Semantic Similarity
http://alt.qcri.org/semeval2014/task3/

The aim of this task is to evaluate semantic similarity when comparing lexical items of different types, such as paragraphs, sentences, phrases, words, and senses.

Call for Data Contributors - MultiLing 2013
(Please feel free to forward this call. Apologies for cross-postings.)

Overview
=======
MultiLing 2013 is a workshop, held within ACL 2013, which covers three subdomains of
Natural Language Processing, focused on the multilingual aspect of summarization.
The MultiLing 2013 workshop builds upon the Text Analysis Conference (TAC)
MultiLing Pilot task of 2011, where systems were asked to generate fluent, representative
summaries (around 250 words) for each of 10 predefined topics per language.

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

6th DGfS-CL Computational Linguistics Fall School 2011

The Computational Linguistics Fall School is a biennial event for students who wish to broaden their knowledge of techniques and methods used in natural language processing, in particular of innovative and emerging fields in computational linguistics not traditionally taught in standard degree programmes.

Date: August 29th - September 9th, 2011

Venue: University of Zurich, Switzerland

Scientific organizer: German Linguistic Society (Deutsche Gesellschaft
für Sprachwissenschaft)
