Dear Colleagues,

[Apologies for Crossposting]

I would like to invite you to register for participation in the following event:

**New Approaches for Extracting Heterogeneous Reference Data** Hybrid Workshop, 15/16 May 2023

The programme is online, registration is open, and everyone is welcome to join online:

https://mpilhlt.github.io/reference-extraction/workshop-2023/programme/

Rationale: Extracting heterogeneous references from texts, in particular from historical documents and humanities or legal scholarship is an unresolved problem. We want to gather scholars and practitioners from the social sciences, the humanities and the informational and computational disciplines to define the problem(s), establish the state of the art and share resources. The overarching aim of the event is to find ways for jointly developing new tools and workflows which are able to unlock previously untapped reference/citation data in the humanities, law and the social sciences. A particular focus lies on newly emerging technologies that are based on (pre-trained) language models.

Registration is possible at https://plan.events.mpg.de/e/data

Presentations will be recorded and will be made available after the event. (You are welcome to register just to be notified about it.)

We hope to see many of you there, Best wishes, on behalf of the conference organisers,

Andreas Wagner
