    Call for Participation - JOKER @ CLEF 2024: Automatic Humour Analysis =====================================================================

    https://joker-project.com/

    We invite individuals and teams to participate in JOKER 2024, a set of
    shared tasks on automatic humour analysis. JOKER 2024 will be held at
    the Conference and Labs of the Evaluation Forum (CLEF 2024) from 9 to 12 September 2024 in Grenoble, France.


    Topics and tasks
    ----------------

    The goal of the JOKER workshop is to bring together linguists and
    computer scientists to work on an evaluation framework for humour,
    including data and metric development, and to foster work on automatic
    methods for humour analysis and translation. We invite submissions of automatic or manual runs for any or all of the following tasks, for
    which we have prepared annotated data:

    Task 1: Humour-aware information retrieval

    Task 2: Humour classification according to genre and technique

    Task 3: Translation of puns from English to French

    Unshared task: We welcome submissions that use our data for other tasks.


    How to participate
    ------------------

    At least one team member should register at the CLEF website, and all
    team members should join the JOKER mailing list (see URLs below). Task
    data will be made available to all registered participants. Runs and
