Dear colleagues,

We cordially invite submissions of proposals for shared tasks, workshops, and 
tutorials to be held at the SwissText 2025 conference. SwissText will take 
place from June 17-18, 2025 at ZHAW in Winterthur.

ABOUT SwissText
SwissText is an annual conference that brings together text analytics experts 
from industry and academia. It is organized by the Swiss Association for 
Natural Language Processing (SwissNLP) in collaboration with the Zurich 
University of Applied Sciences (ZHAW).

SPECIAL EDITION
This edition of SwissText will be special, since we celebrate its 10th 
anniversary! This is a great opportunity to look back. Hence, in addition to 
novel ideas for shared tasks, we also invite previous organizers of shared 
tasks to re-submit their ideas: What has changed since the last run of the 
shared task? Is the task still relevant? Do LLMs solve everything now? This 
offers us to see what progress has been made over the years.

To give you some ideas, here is a list of previous shared tasks:

  *
NLP for Sustainable Development Goals Monitoring
  *
Swissdox Hackathon
  *
Detecting greenwashing signals through a comparison of ESG reports and public 
media
  *
Swiss German Speech to Standard German Text Shared Task
  *
Low-Resource Speech-to-Text
  *
The Sentence End and Punctuation Prediction in NLG text (SEPP-NLG)
  *
German Text Summarization Challenge
  *
.. and many more (see the SwissText website archive)!


FORMAT FOR PROPOSALS
Proposals for shared tasks should contain:

  *
a title and a brief description of the topic of the task
  *
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
  *
a tentative timeline

Proposals for workshops should contain:

  *
a title and a brief description of the topic
  *
a description of the intended audience
  *
workshop format (paper presentations, poster session, etc.)
  *
a tentative timeline

Proposals for tutorials should contain:

  *
a title and a brief description of the topic and the goal of the tutorial
  *
an introduction of the workshop speakers and their background and expertise
  *
a description of the intended audience and the required level of expertise 
(beginners, experts, etc.)
  *
a tentative outline of the tutorial schedule

Note that the organization and running of the shared tasks, workshops, and 
tutorial is in the hands of the respective organizers. The SwissText organizers 
will provide infrastructure (rooms, paper submission platform) and assist where 
they can, of course.

Interested? We are looking forward to your proposals. Submit your proposals by 
email to [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> no later than November 
30, 2024. Notifications will be sent out by December 15, 2024.
