We are pleased to announce the call for papers for the 21st Workshop on Multiword Expressions (MWE 2025), to be held as a full-day workshop collocated with NAACL 2025 in Albuquerque, New Mexico, U.S.A. The workshop will be held in a hybrid format, allowing both on-site and on-line participation. The submission deadline is January 30, 2025.
MWE 2025 is organized, sponsored, and endorsed by SIGLEX, the Special Interest Group on the Lexicon of the ACL. The workshop will bring together and encourage researchers in various NLP subfields to submit their MWE-related research, with the aim of consolidating the converging results of previous joint workshops.
Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to, computationally-applicable theoretical work in psycholinguistics and corpus linguistics, annotation and representation in resources such as corpora, treebanks, e-lexicons, WordNets, and constructions (also for low-resource languages), processing in syntactic and semantic frameworks, discovery and identification methods, interpretation of MWEs and understanding of text containing them, language acquisition, language learning, and non-standard language, evaluation of annotation and processing techniques, retrospective comparative analyses from the PARSEME shared tasks, processing for end-user applications, implicit and explicit representation in pre-trained language models and end-user applications, evaluation and probing of pre-trained language models, resources and tools and their integration into end-user applications, multiword terminology extraction, and adaptation and transfer of annotations and related resources to new languages and domains including low-resource ones.
The workshop invites two types of submissions: archival submissions that present substantially original research in both long paper format (8 pages + references) and short paper format (4 pages + references), and non-archival submissions of abstracts describing relevant research presented/published elsewhere which will not be included in the MWE proceedings.
Papers should be submitted via the workshop’s submission page (https://openreview.net/group?id=aclweb.org/NAACL/2025/Workshop/MWE). Submissions must follow the ACL stylesheet, and papers should not exceed 8 pages for long papers and 4 pages for short papers, including references.
Important dates:
– Paper Submission Deadline: January 30, 2025
– Notification of acceptance: March 1, 2025
– Camera-ready papers due: March 10, 2025
– Workshop: May 3 or 4, 2025
The workshop follows the ACL anti-harassment policy. For any inquiries regarding the workshop, please send an email to the Organizing Committee at mweworkshop2023 at googlegroups.com.
