Meeting Description:

The 5th International Conference on Natural Language Processing for
Digital Humanities will co-locate with NAACL in Albuquerque, USA!

The proceedings will be published in the ACL anthology. The event will
take place on May 3–4, 2025.

The focus of NLP4DH is on applying natural language processing
techniques to digital humanities research. The topics can be anything
of digital humanities interest with a natural language processing or
generation aspect.

Short papers can be up to 4 pages in length. Short papers can report
on work in progress or a more targeted contribution such as software
or partial results.

Long papers can be up to 8 pages in length. Long papers should report
on previously unpublished, completed, original work.

Lightning talks can be submitted as 750-word abstracts. Lightning
talks are suited for discussing ideas or presenting work in progress.
Lightning talks will be published in lightning proceedings on Zenodo.

Accepted papers (short and long) will be published in the proceedings
that will appear in the ACL Anthology. Accepted papers will also be
given an additional page to address the reviewers’ comments. The
length of a camera ready submission can then be 5 pages for a short
paper and 9 for a long paper with an unlimited number of pages for
references.

The authors of the accepted papers will be invited to submit an
extended version of their paper to a special issue in the Journal of
Data Mining & Digital Humanities.

Call for Papers:

Main Track

A list of suitable topics includes but is not limited to:
- Text analysis and processing related to humanities using
computational methods
- Thorough error analysis of an NLP system using (digital) humanities
methods
- Dataset creation and curation for NLP (e.g. digitization,
digitalization, datafication, and data preservation).
- Research on cultural heritage collections such as national archives
and libraries using NLP
- NLP for error detection, correction, normalization and denoising
data
- Generation and analysis of literary works such as poetry and novels
- Analysis and detection of text genres

Special Track: Understanding LLMs through humanities

As we established in the previous edition of NLP4DH, humanities
research has a new role in interpreting and explaining the behavior of
LLMs. Reporting numerical results on some benchmarks is not quite
enough, we need humanities research to better understand LLMs. This
line of research is emerging and we know that it may take several
shapes and forms. Here is some list of examples of what this could
mean.

- Using theories to analyze or qualitatively evaluate LLMs
- Using insights from humanities to improve LLMs
- Using theories to probe LLMs
- Examining LLMs through linguistic typology and variation
- The influence of literary theories on understanding LLM-generated
text
- Philosophical inquiries into the "understanding" of language in LLMs
- Analyzing LLM responses using narratology frameworks
- Cognitive models of human language acquisition vs. LLM training
paradigms
