Meeting Description:

The Novel Incentives in Data Collection from People workshop will provide a
forum for researchers and practitioners to explore and discuss the issues,
advantages, challenges and results of using novel incentives as a method for
the creation of language resources.


Call for Papers:

The goal of this workshop is to encourage and provide a venue for research on
novel incentives to supplement LR collection based traditionally on monetary
compensation. By increasing the range of incentives offered we can increase
the diversity of LRs available by reaching speaker groups that have been
previously inaccessible and by enabling work on languages and topics that are
not currently among any funder’s priorities. 

Because linguistic innovation is effectively limitless, relying upon a limited
resource, monetary compensation, to generate the data needed to document the
world’s languages in all their situations of use is certain to fall short.
Instead the community of language resource developers and users must develop
and employ incentives that scale beyond the budget of 3- or 5-year programs.
While a few innovative efforts employ novel incentives, they remain uncommon
in our field even while they grow among social media providers. 

Topics:

In order to continue and expand the discussion on novel incentives this
workshop will invite contributions on related topics including:

- projects that use alternate or novel incentives 
- characteristics and performance of populations attracted by novel incentives
- modifications of the data collection and annotation tasking and workflows to
accommodate new workforces, including the now familiar crowdsourcing
approaches
- techniques for integrating the results of novel incentives, workforces and
workflows into research
- legal and ethical issues related to novel incentive models
- other topics relevant to novel incentives in data collection from people

The workshop will also consider papers that discuss data collection efforts
employing monetary compensation provided they compare to alternate incentives
or address the issues of tasking, workflow or exploiting the results of the
new workforce.

Presenting authors of Best Paper Employing LanguageARC and Best Student Paper
will receive travel assistance to present during this workshop at LREC. 

Submissions

 We will accept papers between 4 and 8 pages excluding references. Accepted
workshop papers will be published as workshop proceedings along with the main
conference papers. Papers must follow the LREC 2022 style sheet and author’s
kit templates. Papers are to be submitted via the workshop START page
(https://www.softconf.com/lrec2022/Novel-Incentives/user/scmd.cgi?scmd=submitP
aperCustom&pageid=0).
