###2nd CFP: Second Workshop on Language Technologies for Historical and Ancient LAnguages (LT4HALA 2022)###
- Website: https://circse.github.io/LT4HALA/2022
- START submission site: https://www.softconf.com/lrec2022/LT4HALA/
- Place: co-located with LREC 2022, Marseille, France
- Date: 25 June 2022 (post-conference workshop)
##DESCRIPTION##
LT4HALA 2022 is a one-day workshop that seeks to bring together scholars who are developing and/or are using Language Technologies (LTs) for historically attested languages, so to foster cross-fertilization between the Computational Linguistics community and the areas in the Humanities dealing with historical linguistic data, e.g. historians, philologists, linguists, archaeologists and literary scholars. LT4HALA 2022 follows LT4HALA 2020 that was organized in the context of LREC 2020 (proceedings: https://aclanthology.org/volumes/2020.lt4hala-1/). Despite the current availability of large collections of digitized texts written in historical languages, such interdisciplinary collaboration is still hampered by the limited availability of annotated linguistic resources for most of the historical languages. Creating such resources is a challenge and an obligation for LTs, both to support historical linguistic research with the most updated technologies and to preserve those precious linguistic data that survived from past times.
Relevant topics for the workshop include, but are not limited to:
- handling spelling variation;
- detection and correction of OCR errors;
- creation and annotation of digital resources;
- deciphering;
- morphological/syntactic/semantic analysis of textual data;
- adaptation of tools to address diachronic/diatopic/diastratic variation in texts;
- teaching ancient languages with NLP tools;
- NLP-driven theoretical studies in historical linguistics;
- evaluation of NLP tools.
##SHARED TASKS##
LT4HALA 2022 will hosts two shared tasks:
- the second edition of EvaLatin, an evaluation campaign entirely devoted to the evaluation of NLP tools for Latin. The second edition of EvaLatin will focus on three tasks (i.e. Lemmatization, PoS tagging, and Morphological Feature Identification), each featuring three sub-tasks (i.e. Classical, Cross-Genre, Cross-Time).
- the first edition of EvaHan, the first evaluation campaign for the evaluation of NLP tools for Ancient Chinese. EvaHan first edition has one task (i.e. a joint task of Word Segmentation and POS Tagging).
Training data for both shared tasks are available on the conference website:
- EvaLatin 2022 training data: https://circse.github.io/LT4HALA/2022/EvaLatin#training-data
- EvaHan 2022 training data: https://circse.github.io/LT4HALA/2022/EvaHan#training-data
Test data will be available on the web pages of the two shared tasks at the following URLs:
- EvaLatin 2022 test data (available after March 17th): https://circse.github.io/LT4HALA/2022/EvaLatin#test-data
- EvaHan 2022 test data (available after March 31st): https://circse.github.io/LT4HALA/2022/EvaHan#test-data
##SUBMISSIONS##
For the workshop, we invite papers of different types such as experimental papers, reproduction papers, resource papers, position papers, survey papers. Both long and short papers describing original and unpublished work are welcome. Long papers should deal with substantial completed research and/or report on the development of new methodologies. They may consist of up to 8 pages of content plus 2 pages of references. Short papers are instead appropriate for reporting on works in progress or for describing a singular tool or project. They may consist of up to 4 pages of content plus 2 pages of references.
We encourage the authors of papers reporting experimental results to make their results reproducible and the entire process of analysis replicable, by making the data and the tools they used available. The form of the presentation may be oral or poster, whereas in the proceedings there is no difference between the accepted papers. The submission is NOT anonymous. The LREC official format is requested. Each paper will be reviewed but three independent reviewers.
As for EvaLatin and EvaHan, participants will be required to submit a technical report for each task (with all the related sub-tasks) they took part in. Technical reports will be included in the proceedings as short papers: the maximum length is 4 pages (excluding references) and they should follow the LREC official format. Reports will receive a light review (we will check for the correctness of the format, the exactness of results and ranking, and overall exposition). All participants will have the possibility to present their results at the workshop: we will allocate an oral session and a poster session fully devoted to the shared tasks in the afternoon.

##Identify, Describe and Share your LRs!##
- Describing your LRs in the LRE Map is now a normal practice in the submission procedure of LREC (introduced in 2010 and adopted by other conferences). To continue the efforts initiated at LREC 2014 about “Sharing LRs” (data, tools, web-services, etc.), authors will have the possibility, when submitting a paper, to upload LRs in a special LREC repository. This effort of sharing LRs, linked to the LRE Map for their description, may become a new “regular” feature for conferences in our field, thus contributing to creating a common repository where everyone can deposit and share data.
- As scientific work requires accurate citations of referenced work so as to allow the community to understand the whole context and also replicate the experiments conducted by other researchers, LREC 2022 endorses the need to uniquely Identify LRs through the use of the International Standard Language Resource Number (ISLRN, www.islrn.org<http://www.islrn.org>), a Persistent Unique Identifier to be assigned to each Language Resource. The assignment of ISLRNs to LRs cited in LREC papers will be offered at submission time.

Dear Colleagues
Despite the troubled and politically unstable times, the digital medievalist board is discussing specific changes to its organization, and we need your feedback on this matter.
This mail is to inform you that the board is debating changes to the bylaws of our organization. As a subscriber to the dm-list, you are a member of digital medievalist, and we want to hear from you.
The motivation behind the changes to the bylaws are the following:
* We want to stress that digital medievalist is an inclusive and open learned society that holds itself to certain standards and academic rigor.
* For reasons of administration and organization, we propose to alter the terms of the executive board. From our point of view, it is too time-consuming to organize elections every year.
* The excellent subcommittee (formally called postgraduate committee) needs a written foundation; we, therefore, want to add specific bylaws for the committee.
As is laid out in our bylaws, we are obliged to give you a chance to comment on the proposed amendments (and frankly, we are very eager to get your feedback). Feel free to comment directly to the list or send one of the board members a message (https://digitalmedievalist.wordpress.com/about/executive-board/).
After this call for comments (open for ten days), the executive board will consider the feedback and propose new bylaws. All members of digital medievalist will have a chance to vote on the new bylaws by the end of March/beginning of April (announced through the mailing list).
For your consideration, I attach two PDF documents with
a) a proposition for amendments to the digital medievalist bylaws [https://annuel2.framapad.org/p/digital-medievalist-by-laws-9suk]
b) a proposition for new bylaws for the subcommittee [https://annuel2.framapad.org/p/bylaws-for-post-graduate-committee-9suk]
Both propositions are also open for comments online (link to a framapad/open document)
I am very much looking forward to your feedback and send best wishes in the name of the executive board,
Tobias
