Shared Task on Speaker Attribution in Newswire and Parliamentary Debates
As previously announced, a new shared task on Speaker Attribution in German political discourse is taking place this spring and summer under the auspices of the GermEval Campaign. The goal of our shared task is the identification of speakers in political debates as well as in news articles, and the attribution of speech events to their respective speakers. Being able to identify this information automatically, i.e., identifying who says what to whom, is a necessary prerequisite for a deep semantic analysis of unstructured text.
Training and development data for Task 1, which focuses on speeches from the German Bundestag, has now been released on github <https://github.com/umanlp/SpkAtt-2023>.
Training and development data for Task 2, which focuses on speech in German news articles, has now been released on github <https://github.com/uhh-lt/news-speaker-attribution-2023>.
For more details about the shared task, including the task settings, datasets, evaluation metrics and link to the *registration* form, please visit the shared task website at CodaLab <https://codalab.lisn.upsaclay.fr/competitions/10431>. The SpkAtt-2023 shared task is partially supported by the German Society for Computational Linguistics and endorsed by two of its Special Interest Groups, CPSS <https://gscl.org/activities/politicssocialsciences/> and IGGSA <https://sites.google.com/site/iggsahome>.
The workshop for the shared task will be held as part of the Conference for Natural Language Processing (KONVENS <https://www.thi.de/konvens-2023/> 2023) in Ingolstadt, Germany, in Sep 2023.
