Subject: SemEval-2022: Call for Task Proposals

 
Please kindly note that due to the space limit here, the full version of call
for proposals can be found instead at:
https://semeval.github.io/SemEval2022/cft

We invite proposals for tasks to be run as part of SemEval-2022. 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.

For SemEval-2022, 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.,
for SemEval-2019: http://alt.qcri.org/semeval2019/ and SemEval-2020:
http://alt.qcri.org/semeval2020/

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
semeval-organizers at googlegroups.com to discuss your idea.
