The 4th Workshop on Arabic Corpus Linguistics (WACL-4) [1]
WACL4 AT COLING’2025
WITH FOCUS ON ARABIC DIALECTS
The field of Arabic language research using corpora and corpus methods
has experienced significant growth and development in recent years. What
once were isolated efforts have now transformed into a vibrant and
expansive area of study, advancing rapidly across multiple dimensions in
both corpus and computational linguistics. Building upon the success of
previous editions--WACL-1 in 2011, WACL-2 in 2013 in conjunction with
the Corpus Linguistics Conference at Lancaster University, and WACL-3 in
2019 at the Corpus Linguistics 2019 conference at Cardiff University--we
are excited to announce the fourth edition of the Workshop on Arabic
Corpus Linguistics (WACL-4).
The primary objectives of WACL-4 are to highlight the latest
developments in the creation, annotation, and application of Arabic
corpora, including the introduction of new corpora and advancements in
annotation techniques, while fostering collaboration among researchers
from diverse institutions and regions to stimulate joint research
projects and interdisciplinary initiatives. This edition will place a
special emphasis on the study of Arabic dialects, including non-standard
and regional varieties, to broaden the understanding of Arabic in its
various manifestations and support research on under-resourced
linguistic varieties. Additionally, WACL-4 aims to encourage the
development and refinement of Natural Language Processing (NLP) systems
and tools tailored for Arabic, integrating corpora into NLP workflows,
creating new computational tools, and evaluating existing systems to
improve their efficacy in processing Arabic text.
The workshop will be held online on January 20th, 2025 in conjunction
with the 31st edition of COLING in 2025 in Abu Dhabi (UAE).
We are pleased to share the programme of WACL4 2025 with you.
