Call for Papers:  The 1st International Workshop on Implicit Author
Characterization from Texts for Search and Retrieval (IACT’23)
The workshop will be  held in conjunction with the 46th International ACM
SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval

Workshop website: https://en.sce.ac.il/news/iact23
July 27, 2023. Taipei, Taiwan.
Paper submission deadline: April 25, 2023, AoE
Submission link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=iact23

To bring the research community's attention to the limitations of current
models at capturing the hidden author characteristics from texts, we
organize the first edition of IACT workshops under the umbrella of the
SIGIR conference. Research works submitted to the workshop should foster
the scientific advance on all aspects of implicit author information
extraction from text.

All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another
journal or conference. The following paper categories are welcome:
Research papers:  up to 8 pages. Original and high-quality unpublished
contributions to the theory and practical aspects of the implicit author
characterization task. Full papers should introduce existing approaches and
describe the methodology and the experiments conducted in detail. Negative
result papers highlighting tested hypotheses that did not get the expected
outcome are also welcomed.
Shared task papers up to 5 pages.

The submissions must be anonymous and will be peer-reviewed by at least two
program committee members.

Papers must be submitted electronically in PDF format through EasyChair
<https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=iact23>. All submissions must be
in English and formatted according to the one-column CEUR-ART style with no
page numbers. Templates in Word or LaTeX can be found in the following zip
folder at http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-XXX/CEURART.zip.  There is also an Overleaf
page
<https://www.overleaf.com/latex/templates/template-for-submissions-to-ceur-workshop-proceedings-ceur-ws-dot-org/hpvjjzhjxzjk>
for LaTeX users.

Research works submitted to the workshop should foster the scientific
advance on all aspects of implicit author information extraction from text,
including but not limited to the following:

   - Query understanding
   - Personalized information search and retrieval
   - Demographics (gender, age, location, etc.) prediction and analysis
   - Profiling protagonists
   - Multi-modal, multi-genre, and multilingual author analysis
   - Detecting implicit expressions of sentiment, emotion, opinion, and bias
   - Transfer learning for implicit author characterization
   - Implicit author profiling annotation schema
   - Evaluation of implicit author profiling
   - Differentiation between AI-generated content and human-generated
   content and bot profiling
   - Author profiling in low-resource languages and under-studied domains
   - Exploration of the relations between self-reported or binary gender
   identity and implicit personality traits
   - Mental disorders and risk prediction
   - Author identification and verification
