Meeting Description:

The CLTW community and workshop – inaugurated at COLING (Dublin) in
2014 – has become a critical focus and forum for researchers working
in speech and language technologies for Celtic languages (Irish,
Welsh, Scots Gaelic, Breton, Cornish, Manx).
While the Celtic languages share certain aspects of their
sociolinguistic situation with other minority languages, their common
linguistic features (e.g. VSO word order, initial mutations and
reasonably complex morphology) also present unique challenges for the
development of robust NLP tools. By gathering researchers from all of
the Celtic languages, CLTW aims to share best practice in overcoming
these difficulties.

Invited Speakers:
Dr. Linda Heimisdottir, CEO at Miðeind, Iceland
Dr. Alham Fikri Aji, Assistant Professor, Mohamed bin Zayed University
of Artificial Intelligence (MBZUAI)

Call for Papers:

We invite submissions of original contributions on resources,
theories, systems, applications, and methods in Natural Language
Processing for any of the Celtic languages. Topics of interest
include, but are not limited to the following:

Knowledge-based NLP/ Neural NLP/Hybrid approaches to processing Celtic
Languages
Fine-Tuning of Pre-Trained Language Models (PLM)
Experiments and Evaluations (Prompting and Fine-Tuning) of Large
Languages Model (LLMs)
Evaluating Celtic Language NLP systems
Celtic Language Resources
Corpus Development/Analysis
Treebanking
Parsing/Chunking
