Good news! #NLProc methods cannot detect deception! @aswathyve.bsky.social's paper got accepted to the Computational Linguistics Journal. "What if Deception Cannot be Detected? A Cross-Linguistic Study on the Limits of Deception Detection from Text" Preprint arxiv.org/abs/2505.13147

#LREC2026 #NLProc papers from @bamnlp.de @uni-bamberg.de ! See you in Palma!

A new interdisciplinary workshop at #ICWSM at the intersection between psychology and #ai/#nlproc

Interested in real world probability (estimates) and how LLMs and humans misinterpret them? Want to do a PhD in #NLProc? Please get in touch and apply in this awesome project lead by @seanpapay.bsky.social (as part of @bamnlp.de at @uni-bamberg.de)

We would like to share with you the contributions that we make to the @eaclmeeting.bsky.social in Rabat in March. See you all there to talk about #NLProc!

Second call for papers for our #LREC2026 workshop "Computational Affective Science". If you studying #NLProc and #Affect and are interested in bringing these areas closer together, please consider submitting! casworkshop.github.io

@aaclmeeting.bsky.social Any news when the proceedings will be available? Would be nice to have a look at them before the conference starts.

We wish you a relaxing holiday season! (and no reviewing obligations until next year) 🎄

Interested in #emotions and natural language processing #NLProc? Then our new workshop is for you: We invite submissions for the 1st Computational Affective Science Workshop (at #LREC 2026). casworkshop.github.io/2026/fcfp/

🌏 #WASSA2026 features a Special Track on Multilinguality and Social Bridges between High- and Lesser-Resourced Languages/Communities We invite work exploring how linguistic diversity and social dynamics shape affective and subjective language processing 🗓️ Deadlines: Dec 17 (direct) & Jan 2 (ARR)

I visited @uni-bamberg.de this week to give a Bamberg Center for AI lecture, and had the opportunity to meet many brilliant researchers, thanks for the invitation @bamnlp.de, @bamdial.bsky.social and BaCAI committee

Tomorrow I'll give my inaugural lecture @uni-bamberg.de – if you don't know what language technology #nlproc is, and want to know what @bamnlp.de works on, please feel invited! If you can't make it at 6pm to Weberei 5 in Bamberg ("Erba Campus"), send me a message and I'll share a streaming link.

[email protected] visited @uni-bamberg.de to present her perspective on #labelvariation in natural language processing. A very inspiring talk, from which our #NLProc groups @bamnlp.de and @bamdial.bsky.social as well as groups working on other modalities learned a lot. Thanks, Barbara!

🚀 We are pleased to announce the First Call for Papers for #WASSA2026 This year, we introduce a Special Track on Multilinguality and Social Bridges between High- & Lesser-Resourced Languages/Communities. 🌍 🗓️ Deadlines: Dec 17 (direct) and Jan 2 (ARR). 🔗 workshop-wassa.github.io/2026/call-fo...

#wassa, one of the most established #nlproc workshops in sentiment, subjectivity, emotions is coming back in 2026. We'd love to see your new work on the topic in Rabat next year.

Received a paper submission invitation from Latticescipub (www.latticescipub.com) – "Article Submission is open ... if ... plagiarism of the article is less than 15%" I somehow like their openness about this issue in their journals. #science #publication #fakescience

If you share #NLProc research interests with me, my conference report for @aclmeeting.bsky.social #ACL2025 might be interesting for you – I highlight the papers that I personally found particularly relevant for our own research. www.romanklinger.de/blog/2025-08...

Happening now: Sean Papay presents his work on CRFs for distant interactions in X5, 223 :-). #xllm #nlproc #acl2025

Keynote by Mark Johnson on the changing role of linguistic structure. #LLM shouldn't work.... #acl2025 #nlproc

Today I am in the XLLM workshop (on linguistic structures and structured modeling), a topic which has been a bit underrepresented in this #acl2025 #nlproc

Happening now, talk to me :-) #nlproc #acl2025

Today and tomorrow: a large number of workshops and colocated conferences. We still have three papers to present. Today I'll present in the poster session in REALM, tomorrow Lynn Greschner presents in BioNLP and Sean Papay in XLLM.

Test of time awards at #acl2025

Review of history of CL and development. #acl2025

The @uni-bamberg.de group at #acl2025 (including @bamnlp.de and @bamdial.bsky.social) #acl2025 #nlproc

Now happening in X5, 95: Johannes Schäfer presenting our work on default demographics in LLMs. #nlproc #acl2025

Now happening: Jiahui Li presents her SRW poster in X5, 218, from the entrance in the left corner. #acl2025 #nlproc

Second keynote in #acl2025 by @verenarieser.bsky.social – focusing on post training by reinforcement learning. #nlproc

This is crazy... #acl2025 #nlproc

The poster session did not even start and it's already huge (this is only one hall). #acl2025 #nlproc

Christopher Bagdon now presents his work on multimodal social media #emotion corpus creation. hall X4, far away from the entrance, stand 375.

Many papers went into this talk by @lukezettlemoyer.bsky.social #acl2025 #nlproc

Now the first invited talk, by @lukezettlemoyer.bsky.social on rethinking pretraining. #acl2025 #nlproc

BTW, has there ever been a conference in which the wifi continued to work when the main conference started? #acl2025

20000 authors! #acl2025

#acl was tiny in 2015. Didn't feel that way at that time. #acl2025

Welcome to the conference. Largest #ACL ever! #nlproc

This is the biggest #ACL I've been to, perhaps the biggest ever. 5400 participants on site, plus online. The reception was crowded, but the first day of the main conference is only tomorrow.

.... And, synthetic data tutorial.... #acl2025

I arrived at #ACL2025 :-). First thing to do: tutorial on human–AI collaboration.

Thanks again for the invitation!

Did I say that I am still fascinated that trains operate across country borders? So many different standards to control trains, different regulations and even different distances of tracks.

I am on my way to Vienna #ACL2025 – looking forward to meeting many friends, and enjoying the time with @bamnlp.de. If you want to talk to me about about psychological concepts, emotions, arguments, structur(ed) learning, or anything else, please approach me. I want to meet new people 😊.

On his way to #ACL2025, Saif Mohammad (x.com/SaifMMohammad) made a stop @bamnlp.de @uni-bamberg.de to give a very inspiring talk on "NLP for Affective Sciences". A recording of the talk is available at youtu.be/LYC6gDJMwac Thanks for visiting us! #NLP #NLProc

Last week, we've been on a retreat to talk about the big picture of our research, research ideas, and synergies between group members – and did some team building. @annefriedrich.bsky.social was our external guest and helped us out of a couple of local optima. Thank you for participating!

We will be at @aclmeeting.bsky.social in #Vienna next week! with some main and workshop papers, and an affinity group meeting. If you want to talk to us, please have a look at the group's schedule. We are looking forward to talking to you, please don't hesitate to get in touch! #NLProc #NLP #ACL2025

✨ The First NLPSI Workshop @ ICWSM 2025 is a wrap! Huge thanks to the speaker (Bennett Kleinberg), authors, reviewers, attendees, and co-organizers (Sofie Labat, Neele Falk, @florplaza.bsky.social, @romanklinger.de & Veronique Hoste) who made it a success. nlpsi-workshop.github.io/highlights/
