Call Deadline: 17-May-2024

Meeting Description:

A big problem with the ubiquity of Generative AI is that it has now
become very easy to generate fake scientific papers. This can erode
public trust in science and attack the foundations of science: are we
standing on the shoulders of robots? The Detecting Automatically
Generated Papers (DAGPAP) competition aims to encourage the
development of robust, reliable AI-generated scientific text detection
systems, utilizing a diverse dataset and varied machine learning
models in a number of scientific domains.

Call for Papers:

You are invited to participate in the shared task "DAGPap24: Detecting
automatically generated scientific papers" collocated with the 4th
Workshop on Scholarly Document Processing (SDP 2024) to be held at ACL
2024. The competition will be held on CodaBench, launching on April
2nd, 2024. Participants are also invited to submit papers describing
their findings.

Papers must follow the ACL format and conform to the ACL 2024
Submission Guidelines. Paper submission has to be done through
openreview.net:

* Website: https://sdproc.org/2024/sharedtasks.html#dagpap
* Submission site: http://tinyurl.com/sdpproc
* Competition launch: April 2 – April 30, 2024
* Paper submission deadline: May 17, 2024


== Monetary prizes ==

We offer the following monetary prizes for the winners of the shared
task:

* 1st place – $3000
* 2nd place – $1200
* 3rd place – $800

The winners will be defined based on the corresponding CodaBench
competition (to be launched on April 2nd, 2024). Additional conditions
are the reproducibility of the solution and a technical report
submitted to the workshop.


== Call for Research Papers ==

A big problem with the ubiquity of Generative AI is that it has now
become very easy to generate fake scientific papers. This can erode
public trust in science and attack the foundations of science: are we
standing on the shoulders of robots? The Detecting Automatically
Generated Papers (DAGPap) competition aims to encourage the
development of robust, reliable AI-generated scientific text detection
systems, utilizing a diverse dataset and varied machine learning
models in a number of scientific domains.

Building on top of a similar competition held in 2022 (https://www.kag
gle.com/competitions/detecting-generated-scientific-papers), we are
now looking into full texts and a more fine-grained detection of
LLM-generated scientific content, when artificial content might be
interspersed with human-generated one.

Participants are invited to submit papers describing their findings
during the competition.


== Topics of Interest ==

We are not only interested in seeing technical reports describing
competitors’ approaches to solving the Shared Task but also invite
submissions on related topics:

* Detection of LLM-generated texts
* Robustness of LLM-detectors to data drift
* Specifics of LLM-detectors in the scientific domain
* Explainability of LLM detection

For an even broader range of topics, please check out the CFP for
Scholarly Document Processing workshop SDP 2024
https://sdproc.org/2024/cfp.html#topics


== Submission Information ==

Authors are invited to submit full and short papers with unpublished,
original work. Submissions will be subject to a double-blind
peer-review process. Accepted papers will be presented by the authors
at the workshop either as a talk or a poster. All accepted papers will
be published in the workshop proceedings (proceedings from previous
years can be found here: https://aclanthology.org/venues/sdp/).

The submissions must be in PDF format and anonymized for review. All
submissions must be written in English and follow the ACL 2024
formatting requirements:

* Long paper submissions: up to 8 pages of content, plus unlimited
references.
* Short paper submissions: up to 4 pages of content, plus unlimited
references.
* Paper submission Website: Paper submission has to be done through
https://openreview.net/group?id=aclweb.org/ACL/2024/Workshop/SDProc.

Final versions of accepted papers will be allowed 1 additional page of
content so that reviewer comments can be taken into account.


== Important Dates (Shared Task) ==

* Competition launch: April 2 (Tuesday), 2024
* Competition end: April 30 (Tuesday), 2024
* Paper submission deadline: May 17 (Friday), 2024
* Notification of acceptance: June 17 (Monday), 2024
* Camera-ready paper due: July 1 (Monday), 2024
* Workshop dates: August 15–16, 2024
