NTCIR-19 Task Proposals: Call for Submissions

Call for task proposals for NTCIR-19, focusing on information access with East Asian languages and English, with an emphasis on large language models.

Dear colleagues, we invite you to submit task proposals for NTCIR-19, a series of evaluation conferences focusing on information access with East Asian languages and English. The submission deadline is March 31, 2025.

NTCIR-19 encourages tasks that focus on the evaluation of the quality of content generated by large language models (LLMs) and information access exploiting LLMs.

Two types of task proposals are accepted: Core tasks and Pilot tasks. Core tasks foster research on a particular information access problem, while Pilot tasks focus on novel information access problems with uncertainties in task design or organization.

Organizers are expected to run their tasks mainly with their own funding and make the task as self-sustaining as possible. A part of the fund can be supported by NTCIR, known as ‘seed funding.’

Please submit your task proposal as a PDF file via EasyChair by March 31, 2025 (Anywhere on Earth). https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ntcir19proposal
