Meeting Description:

The Fourth International Workshop on Resources and Tools for
Derivational Morphology will be held in Dubrovnik, Croatia, on October
05 and 06, 2023, at the Centre for Advanced Academic Studies (CAAS),
Dubrovnik, Croatia.

The 2023 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) and DeriMo 2021
(Nancy, France).

Call for Papers:

DeriMo 2023 will provide an international platform for the
presentation of new developments in existing word-formation resources
and for the introduction of recently created ones. A debate is
expected on all aspects of the creation of these resources, from
technical solutions to linguistic decisions on which word-formation
processes and how they are modeled in the resource. DeriMo 2023 wants
to cover modern as well as ancient languages and welcomes approaches
with a potentially multi-lingual focus. The availability of
appropriate tools is considered essential not only for resource
development but also for the potential use of word-formation data in
both Natural Language Processing and linguistic descriptions. Another
goal of DeriMo 2023 is to bring the state-of-the-art approaches to
modelling 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 modelled in the word-formation resources may
indicate directions of future research, whether with
language-specific, cross-lingual, multi-lingual, or typological
perspectives.

Topics
DeriMo 2023 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unpublished research, both completed and ongoing, with an emphasis on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.

Instructions for submission
We invite you 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=derimo2023.
