1ST CALL FOR SHARED TASK, WORKSHOP AND TUTORIAL PROPOSALS

We cordially invite submissions of shared task, workshop and tutorial proposals 
as part of KONVENS 2023, which takes place from September 18-22, 2023 at 
Technische Hochschule Ingolstadt (Bavaria, Germany).



KONVENS (Konferenz zur Verarbeitung natürlicher Sprache/Conference on Natural 
Language Processing) is an annual conference series on computational 
linguistics (biennial until 2018) that started in 1992 and that is organized 
under the auspices of the German Society for Computational Linguistics and 
Language Technology, the Special Interest Group on Computational Linguistics of 
the German Linguistic Society, the Austrian Society for Artificial Intelligence 
and SwissText.



CALL FOR SHARED TASK PROPOSALS

Shared tasks need to be in line with the GermEval campaign that focus on NLP 
for the German language. See https://germeval.github.io/ for an overview of 
previous GermEval tasks. Proposals for shared tasks should contain:

·        a title and a brief description of the topic of the task and its 
potential impact on the NLP community and on society

·        a description of the data sets that will be used in the shared task 
and their readiness

·        a sketch of how the submitted systems will be evaluated

In addition, proposals need to contain the filled out GermEval 
Questionnaire<https://gscl.org/germeval>, which aims to help with identifying 
potential ethical issues.

Please submit your shared task proposal by email to 
[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> no later

CALL FOR TUTORIAL PROPOSALS

Tutorials are intended to either provide a comprehensive introduction to core 
techniques/areas of interest or address advanced topics relevant for the 
KONVENS community. We invite half-day tutorials on established or emerging 
research topics in these areas but we also welcome tutorials from related 
research fields or applications. Tutorials may be explicitly introductory, 
targeting experienced researchers or attracting a wide audience by addressing 
basic as well as advanced topics. Tutorial proposals should contain:

·        a title and abstract of the tutorial

·        a brief description of the tutorial content and its relevance to the 
KONVENS community

·        a brief outline of the tutorial structure showing that the tutorial’s 
core content can be covered in half a day

·        the names and email addresses of the tutorial instructors, including 
one-paragraph statements of their research interests and areas of expertise

·        a list of previous venues and approximate audience sizes, if the same 
or a similar tutorial has been given elsewhere

Tutorial proposals should be submitted by e-mail to 
[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> no later 
than November 30, 2022. Notifications will be sent out by December 15, 2022.
