12th Workshop on Argument Mining - Call for Shared Task Proposals (Deadline:
January 7th)
We cordially invite submissions of shared task proposals, as part of ArgMining
2025, the “12th Workshop on Argument Mining”. The workshop will be co-located
with ACL 2025 (to be held in Vienna, Austria). The call for papers will be
circulated separately, in the next days
Argument mining (also known as “argumentation mining”) is a gradually maturing
research area within computational linguistics. It involves the automatic
identification of argumentative structures in free text, as well as argument
quality assessment, argument persuasiveness, and the synthesis of argumentative
texts.
To advance research on specific aspects of argument mining, previous editions
of the ArgMining workshop series have promoted shared tasks, including key
point analysis for quantitative summarization of arguments (see Argmining
2021), the validity and novelty of arguments (see Argmining 2022), multimodal
argument mining and pragmatic tagging of peer reviews (see Argmining 2023), and
argument mining considering perspective and dialogical aspects (see Argmining
2024).
Following the success of previous workshops, ArgMining 2025 plans to share one
or more unsolved problems to be investigated by the community.
Proposals for shared tasks should include:
• a title and a brief description of the task
• a description of the datasets that will be used in the task and
their readiness, and a proposed plan for data collection and annotation
• previous work on the datasets, including publications (if any)
• a few lines regarding evaluation of the submitted systems
• a brief introduction of the task organizers
Shared task organizers will have the opportunity to publish a task overview
paper in the workshop proceedings.
Please submit your shared task proposal via email to argmining.org2025 [at]
gmail.com. The submission deadline is January 7th, 2025, and task organizers
will be notified of proposal acceptance on January 19th.
While exact dates are not yet available, we assume the following tentative
schedule:
• End of February - Training data release
• Mid of April - Test data release, evaluation start
• End of April - Evaluation end
• Mid of May - Results announcement
• End of May - Paper submission due
• Mid of June - Camera-ready version due
• July 31st or August 1st 2025 - ArgMining 2025 workshop (ACL)
The timeline will be finalized with the shared task organizers.
Organizers: Elena Chistova, Philipp Cimiano, Gabriella Lapesa, Shoreh Haddadan,
Ramon Ruiz-Doiz
