Location: Marseilles, France 
Contact Person: Ingo Siegert

Linguistic Field(s): Computational Linguistics 

Call Deadline: 08-Apr-2022 

Meeting Description:

In recent years the use of deep learning technologies for language resources
on the one hand and the demand for high quality data interactions on the other
raises the need for data collections of interaction resources.

These data, despite their intangible nature, may be subject to legal
constraints which need to be addressed in order to guarantee lawful access to
the data. The legal framework takes time to reform, and therefore law is
always lagging behind the technology. In recent years, considerable efforts
have been made to adapt the legal framework to the advancements in technology
while taking into account the interests of various stakeholders.

>From the technological perspective the strict consideration of legal aspects
imposes further questions besides pure recording technology and participant
consent. How can identifying information be removed or anonymized, how
reliable are predictions/models based on these data? What is the IPR status of
models derived from language data, and is the very process of deriving such
models within the ambit of IPR? Which impact does this have on the usability,
computational costs?

The purpose of this workshop will be the attempt to build bridges between
technology and legal experts and discuss current legal and ethical issues in
the human language technology sector.


Call for Papers:

The scope of the Legal and Ethical Issues Workshop spans the entire processing
pipeline from resource collection and annotation to system development and
applications within Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. The workshop
will include expert presentations on the recent changes in the legal framework
concerning Language Resources. In addition, updates from research
infrastructures in the EU and US are expected as well as original research by
lawyers and scholars working in the field of language technology.
