Call for papers: 1st Workshop on Computational Humor (CHum 2025) ================================================================
The 1st Workshop on Computational Humor (CHum 2025) will take place
virtually on January 19, 2025 as part of the 31st International
Conference on Computational Linguistics (COLING 2025).
Scope and topics
----------------
CHum 2025 aims to foster further work on modeling the processes of humor
with current methods in computational linguistics and natural language processing, against the theoretical backdrop of humor research and with reference to relevant corpora of textual, visual, and multimodal
materials. A principal goal of the workshop is to unite researchers who
can together probe the limits of various meaning representations --
symbolic, neural, and hybrid -- for humor processing.
We welcome contributions on any topic relevant to the computational
processing of humor, including but not limited to the following:
* LLMs, knowledge representation
* Resources and evaluation
* Human-computer interaction
* Computer-mediated communication
* Assisted content creation
* Machine and computer-assisted translation
* Digital humanities applications
* Formal modeling of humor
* Proof-of-concept humor detection and classification
Particularly encouraged are submissions describing inter- or
multi-disciplinary work, whether completed or in progress, and position
papers that critically discuss the past, present, and future of
computational humor systems.
