This workshop invites submissions on any (theoretical or computational) topic concerning NLI, including but not limited to:
- hybrid NLI systems integrating symbolic/logic-based methods with ML/DL approaches (particularly, approaches combining Natural Logic with ML/DL)
- explainable models of NLI
- opening the “black box” of NLI models
- probabilistic semantics for NLI
- downstream applications of NLI
- creation, evaluation, and criticism of NLI datasets,
- theoretical notions and refinement of the NLI task to address inherent disagreements
- comparison and contrast between human-level and machine-level work in NLI
- using symbolic/logic-based methods for data cleaning and augmentation
- NLI for other languages than English.
We invite two types of submission:
- Archival (long or short) papers should report on complete, original and unpublished research. Accepted papers will be published in the workshop proceedings and appear in the ACL anthology.
- Extended abstracts may report on work in progress or work that was recently published/accepted at a different venue. Extended abstracts will not be included in the workshop proceedings. Thus, the unpublished work will retain the status and can be submitted to another venue. This webpage will link to the accepted extended abstracts.
Both accepted papers and extended abstracts are expected to be presented at the workshop. Extended abstracts will be presented as talks or posters at the discretion of the program committee.
Authors must submit anonymized extended abstracts or papers by March 26 April 4. Both extended abstracts and papers must be formatted according to the IWCS style-files or the Overleaf template. The extended abstracts should not contain an abstract section and may consist of up to 2 pages of content, plus unlimited references. Short and long papers may consist of up to 4 and 8 pages of content, respectively, plus unlimited references. Camera-ready versions of papers will be given one additional page of content so that reviewers’ comments can be taken into account.
Both extended abstracts and follow-up papers should be submitted via SoftConf.
