================================================


Following the workshops held in conjunction with the Conferences "Recent 
Advances in Natural Language Processing" RANLP-2005, RANLP-2007, RANLP-2009, 
RANLP-2011, RANLP-2013, RANLP-2015, RANLP-2017, RANLP-2019, RANLP-2021 and 
RANLP-2023, we are pleased to announce a call for workshop proposals for 
RANLP-2025.

RANLP-2025 invites workshop proposals on any topic of interest to the Natural 
Language Processing (NLP) community, ranging from fundamental research issues 
to more applied industrial or commercial aspects. We encourage workshops 
related to (or discussing the employment of) the latest NLP methods including 
Large Language Models/Generative AI. Workshops can vary in length from a half 
day to full 1-2 days and can also feature demo sessions. The format of each 
workshop (face-to-face or hybrid) can be determined by its organisers the 
condition being that onsite sessions are held in Varna for the whole workshop 
duration so that other RANLP participants can take part in the event. Accepted 
workshops will receive one free registration to RANLP-2025 (full registration 
including the summer school, tutorials, all workshops, main conference, 
reception, conference dinner).

VENUE
The workshops will take place in Hotel "Cherno More", Varna, the main 
RANLP-2025 conference venue. If more than 5 workshops are selected, the 
RANLP-2025 organisers will provide conference halls in some of the neighbouring 
hotels or universities in downtown Varna.

1. Title and brief technical description of the workshop, specifying the goals 
and the technical issues that it will focus on;
2. Brief description of the target audience, including estimates of the numbers 
of submissions and attendees (a tentative list of potential contributors would 
be useful);

in 2025;
4. Tentative workshop programme committee;
5. Names and contact information (web page, email address) of the proposed

The workshop Organising Committee is responsible for the following:

START;

chairing the live sessions in Varna.


Workshop invited speakers: If the workshop organisers intend to host an invited 
talk, it is recommended that they invite somebody from the main conference 
keynote speakers or participants. If the workshop organisers decide to invite 
another speaker, it is very likely that the workshop organisers will have to 
secure financial support for this speaker.
