Linguistic Field(s): Computational Linguistics; Morphology 

Call Deadline: 12-Apr-2021 

Meeting Description:

The Third International Workshop on Resources and Tools for Derivational
Morphology will be held in Nancy, France, on September 9 and 10, 2021, at the
University of Lorraine, in the ATILF lab (UMR 7118 ''Analyse et Traitement de
la Langue Française'', CNRS & Université de Lorraine).

The Nancy edition of the workshop will continue the discussion on language
resources and tools for derivational morphology (and, more generally, on word
formation) started in DeriMo 2017 (Milan, Italy) and continued in DeriMo 2019
(Prague,Czech Republic).

DeriMo 2021 will provide an international platform for presentation of new
developments in existing word-formation resources and for introduction of
recently created ones. A debate is expected on all aspects of creation of
these resources, from technical solutions to linguistic decisions on which
word-formation processes and how they are modelled in the resource. 

DeriMo 2021 wants to cover modern as well as ancient languages and welcomes
approaches with a potentially multi-lingual focus. Availability of appropriate
tools is considered essential not only for the resource development but also
for potential use of word-formation data in both Natural Language Processing
and linguistic descriptions. Another goal of DeriMo 2021 is to bring the
state-of-the-art approaches to modeling word-formation closer to current
linguistic accounts of word formation. Presentations of any type of linguistic
research into word formation are expected to contribute to a discussion on
usage and usability of available resources and tools. Linguistic insights into
the phenomena that are modeled in the word-formation resources may indicate
directions of future research, whether with language-specific, cross-lingual,
multi-lingual, or typological perspectives.

Invited Speakers: 
Prof. Sebastian Padó (University of Stuttgart, Germany)
Prof. Richard Huyghe (Université de Fribourg, Switzerland)


Call for Papers: 

DeriMo 20192021 aims to cover a wide range of topics. Submissions are invited
for presentations featuring high quality, previously unpublished research,
both completed and ongoing, with an emphasis on novel approaches, methods,
ideas, and perspectives, whether descriptive, theoretical, formal or
computational. In particular, the topics to be addressed in the workshop
include (but are not limited to) the following:
 - language resources for word-formation either of individual languages, or
with a multi-lingual focus,
 - representation of word-formation processes in the resources (models based
on base-derivative pairs, paradigmatic models, or other representations),
 - enhancement of word-formation resources with other features (e.g. semantic
categories in affixation, classification of compounds),
 - linking word-formation resources with other types of annotation (e.g.
syntactic, semantic),
 - application of (semi-)automatic methods in modelling word formation,
 - tools for creating, searching etc. of word-formation resources,
 - data-based linguistic research in any aspect of word-formation (of
individual languages, with contrastive or comparative focus, diachronic
perspectives etc.),
 - theoretical accounts of word-formation issues.
Proceedings will be published, open-access, in time for the workshop.

Important Dates: 
 - Deadline for paper submission: 12 April 2021
 - Notification of acceptance: 29 May 2021
 - Registration open: 15 June 2021
 - Final papers due (camera-ready): 10 July 2021
 - The workshop: 9-10 September 2021

Instructions for Submission: 
 We invite to submit long abstracts describing original, unpublished research
related to the topics of the workshop. Abstracts should not exceed 5 pages
(references included). The language of the workshop is English. All abstracts
must be submitted in well-checked English. Abstracts should be submitted in
PDF format only. Submissions have to be made via the EasyChair page of the
workshop at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=derimo2021. Please, first
register at EasyChair if you do not have an EasyChair account. The style
guidelines to follow for the paper can be found here:
http://nabil.hathout.free.fr/DeriMo2021/instructions.php

Reviewing will be double-blind, the abstract should not include the authors'
names and affiliations or any references to web-sites, project names etc.
revealing the authors' identity. Furthermore, any self-reference should be
avoided. Each submitted abstract will be reviewed by three members of the
program committee. The authors of the accepted abstracts will be required to
submit the full version of their paper, which may be extended up to 10 pages
(references included).

Oral Presentations: 
The oral presentations at the workshop will be 30 minutes long (25 minutes for
presentation and 5 minutes for questions and discussion).
