Meeting Description:

The Workshop on Processing and Evaluating Event Representations (PEER)
brings together researchers working on incremental language
understanding with researchers working on event semantics. The 4th
Workshop on Processing and Evaluating Event Representations (PEER2025)
will be hosted by the University of Rochester and will have invited
talks by:

- Ellen Lau (University of Maryland, College Park)
- Alexis Wellwood (University of Southern California)

PEER2025 will be held solely in-person, and there will be no remote
presentation or attendance option.

The organizers of the 4th Workshop on Processing and Evaluating Event
Representations (PEER2025) invite submission of abstracts for
15-minute oral presentations on any topic in incremental linguistic
processing or event semantics. Preference will be given to abstracts
that address topics at the intersection of these two domains and that
speak to the following (or related) questions:

1. What symbolic and continuous representations are necessary for
capturing different aspects of linguistic meaning?
2. How do we determine the psycholinguistic validity of such
representations to better understand incremental processing in humans?
3. How might the psycholinguistically valid representations be
deployed during incremental language processing?

Submission details:

The deadline for abstract submission is Friday, November 15, 2024,
11:59 pm (UTC-12). Submissions should be made via the PEER2025
OpenReview site:

https://openreview.net/group?id=PEER/2025/Workshop

Acceptance decisions are expected in mid-February 2025. An OpenReview
account is required to submit an abstract. New OpenReview accounts can
take some time to be approved, so registration with OpenReview is
recommended well in advance of the submission deadline.

Requirements:

Abstracts must be anonymous. The main text should be at most one page
(US Letter or A4) in length, with an optional second page for
references, figures, or non-English examples. All English examples
must be interleaved within the main text of the abstract. No prose may
extend onto the second page and captions for figures on the second
page must not exceed 100 characters in length.

English context descriptions for non-English examples may be placed on
the second page alongside the example they are associated with, but
they must obey the constraint for figure captions on the second
page–i.e. they must not exceed 100 characters in length. If longer
English context descriptions are necessary–even for non-English
examples that themselves are placed on the second page–they must be
interleaved within the main text of the abstract.

The abstract should use a font no smaller than 11pt for all text
(including mathematical formulae, examples, figure captions, and
footnotes), and its margins should be no smaller than 1 inch (for US
Letter) or 3 cm margins (for A4) on all four sides. The line spacing
must be no smaller than single space. The abstract must be submitted
as a single PDF file. These limitations will be strictly enforced. In
addition to the intellectual interest of the abstract, clarity and
readability will also be taken into account in reviewing.

Policies:

Authors may be involved in an unlimited number of abstracts, but they
may be involved in at most one as first author and at most two as last
author. For a single author abstract, the sole author counts as both
the first and the last author for the purposes of this constraint; and
for a two author abstract, the second author counts as the last author
for the purposes of this constraint.

PEER does not accept papers that at the time of the conference have
been published or have been accepted for publication. No dispreference
is shown for presentations duplicated at another workshop or
conference.
