The topics of the shared tasks cover 1) grammatical error diagnosis, 2) sentiment analysis, 3) product review summarization and customer feedback analysis and 4) question-answering. Please visit each task website as listed below for more information. 1. Shared Task on Chinese Grammatical Error Diagnosis (CGED) Participants will build systems to automatically detect the errors in Chinese sentences (error existence, types and position) made by Chinese-as-Second-Language learners. Four error types are annotated in the corpus for training, i.e. redundant word, missing word, word selection and word ordering. There were three previous events of the shared task (2014, 2015 and 2016). http://www.cged.science/ Gaoqi Rao <[email protected]> Baolin Zhang <[email protected]> Endong Xun <[email protected]> CONTACT: [email protected] 2. Dimensional Sentiment Analysis for Chinese Phrases Given a word or phrase, participants are asked to provide a real-valued score from 1 to 9 for both valence and arousal dimensions, indicating the degree from most negative to most positive for valence, and from most calm to most excited for arousal. http://nlp.innobic.yzu.edu.tw/tasks/dsa_p/ Liang-Chih Yu <[email protected]> Lung-Hao Lee <[email protected]> Jin Wang <[email protected]> Kam-Fai Wong <[email protected]> CONTACT: [email protected] 3. Review Opinion Diversification Participants will build systems to rank top-k reviews as a summary of opinions of product reviews in three different ways. The shared task will use a subset of Amazon SNAP product reviews dataset for experiments. It contains reviews of products in different categories, e.g., 22,000,000+ reviews of books and 7,000,000+ reviews of electronics products. https://sites.google.com/itbhu.ac.in/revopid-2017 Anil Kumar Singh <[email protected]> Julian McAuley <[email protected]> Avijit Thawani <[email protected]> Mayank Panchal <[email protected]> Anubhav Gupta <[email protected]> Rajesh Kumar Mundotiya <[email protected]> CONTACT: [email protected] 4. Shared Task on Customer Feedback Analysis Understanding and being able to react to customer feedback is the most fundamental task in providing good customer service. The shared task will provide a corpus annotated using a five-class categorization (comment, request, bug, complaint and meaningless) from a pilot study of ADAPT-Microsoft joint research project. Participants will train classifiers for the detection of meanings in customer feedback in English, Spanish and Japanese. https://sites.google.com/view/customer-feedback-analysis/ Chao-Hong Liu <[email protected]> Declan Groves <[email protected]> Alberto Poncelas <[email protected]> Akira Hayakawa <[email protected]> Yasufumi Moriya <[email protected]> CONTACT: [email protected] 5. Multi-choice Question Answering in Examinations Participants will build systems to choose the correct option for each multi-choice question. The dataset is comprised of two parts, English and Chinese. The total number of questions (along with their answers) is 14,447. http://www.nlpr.ia.ac.cn/cip/ijcnlp/Multi-choice_Question_ Answering_in_Exams.html Jun Zhao <[email protected]> Kang Liu <[email protected]> Shizhu He <[email protected]> Zhuoyu Wei <[email protected]> Shangmin Guo <[email protected]> CONTACT: [email protected] IMPORTANT DATES Shared Task Website Ready: 1-May-17 Release of Training Data: 15-May-17 Dryrun: Release of Development Set: 12-Jul-17 Release of Test Set: 14-Aug-17 Submission of Systems: 21-Aug-17 System Description Paper Due: 15-Sep-17 Camera-Ready Deadline: 10-Oct-17 SHARED TASK CO-CHAIRS Chao-Hong Liu, ADAPT Centre, Dublin City University, [email protected] Preslav Nakov, Qatar Computing Research Institute, [email protected] Nianwen Xue, Brandies University, [email protected] *Chao-Hong Liu* | Postdoctoral Researcher ADAPT Centre School of Computing m: +353 (0) 89 247 3035 <+353%2089%20247%203035> Dublin City University e: [email protected] Dublin 9, Ireland www.adaptcentre.ie <https://twitter.com/adaptcentre> <https://www.facebook.com/ADAPTCentre?fref=ts> <https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9--qVutTtyLyhZCJR7rY5g> <https://www.linkedin.com/company/adapt-centre>
