Call for Papers: R2CASS2025 – Social Science Meets Web Data
R2C ass 2025, a workshop at ICWSM 2025, focuses on computational reproducibility in social science research using web data. Submit your papers by March 31, 2025.
The first international workshop “Social Science Meets Web Data: Reproducible and Reusable Computational Approaches” (R2CASS2025) will be held in conjunction with the International AAAi Conference on Web and Social Media (ICWSM 2025) in Copenhagen, Denmark on June 23, 2025.
The workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners to discuss and exchange ideas towards potential interdisciplinary collaborations from computer science, social science, meta-science, and other related disciplines. It provides a platform to present and critically analyze computational reproducibility guidelines and checklists for social sciences.
