=================================
In recent years, Natural Language Processing (NLP) has increasingly intersected
with the humanities and social sciences, offering new methodologies for
analyzing textual data, interpreting meaning, and modelling language-based
phenomena. The potential for multi-disciplinary research using NLP methods is
particularly great in computational semantics (CS), as its ability to process
and represent meaning opens up innovative pathways for researchers in history,
philosophy, literary studies, political science, etc. This workshop aims to
explore how semantic models and tools can be leveraged to tackle traditional
and emerging questions in the Humanities in a broader sense (Social Sciences,
Law, Economics, Management, Literature, Languages, Art, â¦).
A major theme of SIR is the role of semantics in NLP applied to the humanities
(both statistical and symbolic approaches).
=== Topics to Explore ===
⢠CS and the humanities: issues, tools and applications
⢠Quantitative and qualitative approaches as a breakthrough in the
Humanities
⢠NLP transforming humanities issues
⢠Contributions and limitations for understanding meaning
⢠Links between formal semantics and neural models
⢠Ambiguity, polyphony and interpretation in the Humanities
⢠Ethics and bias in semantic modelling
⢠Interdisciplinary dialogue between AI, NLP and Humanities
