[Corpora-List] AAAI 2022 workshop on scientific document understand + shared task on acronym extraction and disambiguation

[SDU AAAI21]

We invite all authors of novel research on scientific document
understanding to submit their paper to the second workshop of Scientific
Document Understanding to be held at the 36th AAAI conference on artificial
intelligence. Our one-day workshop focuses on advances, challenges, and
resources for processing and analyzing scientific text. It features invited
talks, oral and poster paper presentations, and two shared tasks for
acronyms in multilingual scientific and legal text. Topics of interest
include but are not limited to:

   -

   Information extraction and information retrieval for scientific

   documents;

   -

   Question answering and question generation for scholarly documents;

   -

   Word sense disambiguation, acronym identification and expansion, and

   definition extraction;

   -

   Document summarization, text mining, document topic classification, and

   machine reading comprehension for scientific documents;

   -

   Graph analysis applications including knowledge graph construction and

   representation, graph reasoning and query knowledge graphs;

   -

   Multi-modal and multi-lingual scholarly text processing;

   -

   Biomedical image processing, scientific image plagiarism detection, and

   data visualization;

   -

   Code/Pseudo-code generation from text and image/diagram captioning;

   -

   New language understanding resources such as new syntactic/semantic

   parsers, language models or techniques to encode scholarly text;

   -

   Survey or analysis papers on scientific document understanding and new

   tasks and challenges related to each scientific domain;

   -

   Factuality, data verification, and anti-science detection;

SDU at AAAI-22 accepts papers in both long (up to 8 pages) and short (up to 4
pages) tracks. The submissions should be in PDF format and follow the
AAAI-22 templates. The review process is double-blinded and submissions
should observe the AAAI-22 guidelines for anonymity.

We also present two shared tasks
<https://sites.google.com/view/sdu-aaai22/shared-task> on (1) extracting
acronyms and their long-forms in English, French, Spanish, Danish, Persian,
and Vietnamese text and (2) disambiguating ambiguous acronyms in English,
French, and Spanish text to find their intended meanings. We strongly
encourage participants to submit their system reports to SDU at AAAI-22. The
winners of the tasks and selected teams (based on the substance of the
approach) are invited to present their work in the oral presentation
session.
