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
languages into sharp focus, especially in light of rapid technological
advancements, and evolving consumer markets.
Research on applied **and ***theoretical*NLP in the context of Slavic
languages is still lagging. 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, aiming to stimulate research in Slavic NLP, and
foster the creation of tools and resources. The Workshops welcome the
exchange of ideas and experience, discussing current challenges, and
promoting the available resources. 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.
We are happy *again *to organize Slav-NLP 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.
