Call for Abstracts [closed]
We are happy to announce the second international conference on generated texts in the Romance languages. AI-ROM-II will focus on texts generated with Large Language Models (LLMs), such as the GPT suites. AI-ROM-II aims to bring together researchers working in Linguistics and beyond to share insights, advancements, and challenges in the field.
- Confirmed Keynote Speakers: Prof. Valentina Bambini (Istituto Universitario di Studi Superiori IUSS Pavia); Prof. Alessandro Lenci (Università di Pisa); and Prof. Alessandro Panunzi (Università degli Studi di Firenze)
- A workshop on prompt engineering will be offered by Dr. Lorenzo Gregori (Università degli Studi di Firenze)
AI-ROM-II is devoted to four main research axes:
- Using LLMs in linguistics research: techniques, tools, and methodologies designed to efficiently use and prompt LLMs.
- Building linguistic resources: insights into the compilation and design of monolingual and/or multilingual corpora including LLM-generated texts.
- Analyzing the properties of LLM-generated texts: description of the linguistic and textual features of LLMs’ output.
- Understanding LLMs’ communicative abilities: testing LLMs’ abilities in pragmatics (Grice’s maxims, indirect speech acts etc.) and sociolinguistics (diatopic, diamesic, diaphasic and diastratic language varieties).
Submission Guidelines: We invite abstracts (written in a Romance language or in English)related to the above-mentioned topics. Submissions should clearly articulate the research question, the methodology, and the results. We welcome abstracts on single Romance languages/varieties, on comparisons between Romance languages/varieties or between Romance and Germanic languages. The conference is open to all theoretical and methodological approaches. Special interest lies in corpus-based and corpus-driven analyses as well as qualitative and quantitative analyses.
Abstract submission and notification of acceptance: Abstracts should be submitted by April 30, 2024 to . Please state the name of the paper in the title of the message. Abstracts must be anonymous and include between 400 and 500 words (references excluded). The Scientific Committee will announce acceptance / rejection of proposals by May 19, 2024.
Papers presented at the conference will be published in a special issue of the diamond open-access journal AI-Linguistica. Linguistic Studies on AI-Generated Texts and Discourses (Ai-Ling) ai_ling.journals.qucosa.de.
