Subject: SemEval-2023: Second Call for Task Proposals

 
We invite proposals for tasks to be run as part of SemEval-2023. SemEval (the
International Workshop on Semantic Evaluation) is an ongoing series of
evaluations of computational semantics systems, organized under the umbrella
of SIGLEX, the Special Interest Group on the Lexicon of the Association for
Computational Linguistics.

SemEval tasks explore the nature of meaning in natural languages: how to
characterize meaning and how to compute it. This is achieved in practical
terms, using shared datasets and standardized evaluation metrics to quantify
the strengths and weaknesses and possible solutions. SemEval tasks encompass a
broad range of semantic topics from the lexical level to the discourse level,
including word sense identification, semantic parsing, coreference resolution,
and sentiment analysis, among others.

For SemEval-2023, we welcome any task that can test an automatic system for
semantic analysis of text, which could be an intrinsic semantic evaluation, or
an application-oriented evaluation. We especially encourage tasks for
languages other than English, cross-lingual tasks, and tasks that develop
novel applications of computational semantics. See the websites of previous
editions of SemEval to get an idea about the range of tasks explored, e.g.
SemEval-2020 (http://alt.qcri.org/semeval2020/) and SemEval-2021
(https://semeval.github.io/SemEval2021/).

We strongly encourage proposals based on pilot studies that have already
generated initial data, as this can provide concrete examples and can help to
foresee the challenges of preparing the full task. In the event of receiving
many proposals, preference will be given to proposals that have already run a
pilot study.

In case you are not sure whether a task is suitable for SemEval, please feel
free to get in touch with the SemEval organizers at semevalorganizersgmail.com
to discuss your idea.

Task proposals are due 31 March 2022 (Anywhere on Earth).
