Slav-NLP:10thWorkshoponNLP for Slavic languages
Co-located with ACL 2025, Vienna, Austria
31 July / 1 August 2025

Submission Deadline: 27 April 2025
WORKSHOPDESCRIPTION
The 10th edition of the Slav-NLP Workshop — at ACL 2025. Sponsored by
SIGSLAV: ACL Special Interest Group on Slavic NLP.
Slavic languages play a crucial role due to their diverse cultural
heritage and wide use — over 400M speakers worldwide. Current political
and economic developments in Central/ Eastern Europe thrust the
Slavic-speaking societies — and their languages — into sharp focus,
especially in light of rapid technological advancements and expanding
consumer markets.
Research on theoretical and applied topics in the context of Slavic
languages is still lagging in the community. Linguistic phenomena that
are common to the Slavic languages — rich morphology, free word order,
etc. — make NLP for these languages challenging. Slav-NLP Workshops
gather researchers from academia and industry. We aim to stimulate
research in Slavic NLP, and foster the creation of tools and resources.
The Workshops provide a forum for exchange of ideas and experience,
discussing current challenges, and making the available resources
widely-known. The structural similarity, as well as the easily
recognizable core vocabulary and inflectional inventory spanning this
large language group, creates a special environment where researchers
can appreciate the shared problems and communicate naturally — despite
the lack of mutual intelligibility.
We are happy to organize Slav-NLP again in Central Europe.
This Workshop addresses Natural Language Processing (NLP) for the Slavic
languages. NLP tasks in urgent need of attention include:
*
language modeling,
*
morphological, syntactic and semantic analysis,
*
lexical semantics,
*
named-entity recognition,
*
text normalization and processing non-standard language,
*
co-reference resolution,
*
information extraction,
*
question answering,
*
text summarization,
*
machine translation,
*
development of linguistic resources,
*
development and assessment of large language models,
*
text classification,
*
text generation,
*
disinformation detection,
*
fact verification,
*
sentiment analysis.
The Workshop continues the proud tradition established by the 9 previous
(B)SNLP Workshops.
