CALL FOR PAPERS

*LREC 2022 Workshop: ResT-UP 2 - Second International Workshop on Resources
and Techniques for User Information in Abusive Language Analysis*


*Submission deadline has been extended to 22 April 2022*

ResT-UP 2 will be held in conjunction with LREC2022 (
https://lrec2022.lrec-conf.org/) on June 24, 2022 (a full day session), and
aims at bringing together researchers and scholars working on stylometric
analysis and automatic detection of abusive language on the Web, e.g.,
cyberbullying or hate speech, with a twofold objective: improving the
existing LRs, e.g., datasets, corpora, lexicons, and sharing ideas on
stylometry techniques and features useful to characterise abusive language
online in a fair and transparent way.

ResT-UP 2 targets stylometry scholars and research groups, experts in
statistics and stylistic analysis of texts as well as computational
linguists who investigate author and community information both in short
texts (social media posts, blog texts and email) and in long texts (such as
pamphlets, (fake) news and political documents).

ResT-UP 2 represents an opportunity to share stylometric experiments with
the scientific community and to show automatic detection techniques of
abusive language on the Web. We would be happy to receive also proposals
that present projects and artificial intelligence platforms that fight
online frauds, cyberbullying, cyberstalking and terrorism, as well as
proposals that investigate the role of author information and stylometry in
the detection of abusive language online, also through bot detection
approaches. Papers that present corpora and ad-hoc linguistic resources for
stylometric analysis are welcomed, especially if aimed at profiling to
detect hate-speech, cyberbullying, cyberstalking, terrorism, online fraud,
plagiarism, fake news, both on ongoing and on completed researches (with
positive or negative results). We also solicit the submission of papers
discussing ethical implications, risks and legal constraints (e.g. European
GDPR) of user profiling in the context of abusive language analysis.

Topics of interest:

Linguistic Resources for

- Abusive Language Analysis and Forensic Linguistics

- Cognitive Profiling

- Computational Stylometry for User and Author Profiling

- Hate speech and abusive language detection

- Profiling of trolls, bots, and users producing hate speech

- Stylistic Features Extraction

- Textual Statistics

Computational Linguistic Analysis of Social Media

Ethical and legal issues in Author Profiling

Machine Learning Profiling Techniques

Projects and Artificial Intelligence Profiling platforms

All papers must represent original and unpublished work that is not
currently under review. Papers will be evaluated according to their
significance, originality, technical content, style, clarity, and relevance
to the workshop. We welcome the following types of contributions:


   -

   Standard research papers (up to 8 pages, plus more pages for references
   if needed);
   -

   Short research papers (from 4 to 6 pages, plus more pages for references
   if needed).



Submissions must be anonymous and strictly follow the LREC2022 stylesheet
formatting guidelines
<https://lrec2022.lrec-conf.org/en/submission2022/submission-guidelines/>.
<https://lrec2020.lrec-conf.org/en/submission2020/authors-kit/>All papers
should be electronically submitted in PDF format via the main conference
platform via START (track ResT-UP 2).

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.

When submitting a paper from the START page, authors will be asked to
provide essential information about resources (in a broad sense, i.e. also
technologies, standards, evaluation kits, etc.) that have been used for the
work described in the paper or are a new result of your research.

Moreover, ELRA encourages all LREC authors to share the described LRs
(data, tools, services, etc.) to enable their reuse and replicability of
experiments (including evaluation ones).

ISLRN

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 2020 endorses the need to
uniquely Identify LRs through the use of the International Standard
Language Resource Number (ISLRN, 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.

Proceedings

Proceedings for workshop papers will be submitted for inclusion in the
conference proceedings and published by the European Language Resources
Association (ELRA).

Important dates:

Submission deadline: April 15 April 22, 2022

Notification of acceptance: May 3, 2022

Camera-ready papers due: May 23, 2022

Workshop Date: June 24, 2022 (full day)
