🚀 Call for Papers | SURGeLLM Workshop @aclmeeting 2026 #ACL2026 Structured data is everywhere yet still underrepresented in how we build and evaluate LLMs. SURGeLLM is a new workshop dedicated to making tables, time series, graphs, charts, maps, flowcharts, and other structured artifacts first-class citizens in modern LLM systems. If you’re working on structure-aware LLMs, this workshop is for you. 🔍 We welcome work on - Structured and symbolic reasoning, multimodal grounding, data-centric LLMs, semantic parsing, visual analytics, and evaluation methodologies for structured artifacts. 📅 Submission deadline: March 22 📝 Details & submission: surgellm.github.io/acl2026/c… (via @openreviewnet ) 🎤 Invited Speakers: @DanRothNLP , @hengjinlp, @LisaAmini1 , @hamidpalangi 💼 Supported By: @SnorkelAI We’re excited to share that SURGeLLM is officially sponsored by Snorkel AI, supporting best paper awards and workshop activities. Thanks to Alexander Ratner, @paroma_varma, @fredsala, @_Incynthia, and @KobieWon 👥 Organizers @keviv9 , @kaize0409, @harsha_kokel, Yue Zhao, @amitpinaki, Yu Wang, Michael Glass, @yuz9yuz, Kavitha Srinivas, Xiusi Chen, @oktie, Qi Zhu, @ShuaichenChang, @yuanhypnosluo Let’s push the boundaries of structure-aware, trustworthy, and multimodal LLMs - together.💡 #NLPProc #ACL2026 @aclmeeting , @ReviewAcl,

Big applause for the winners of the Best Demo Paper Awards at ACL 2025! 🏆 These demos showcase incredible innovation and practical applications in NLP. ✨ We're thrilled to see such impactful systems brought to life. Congratulations to all! #ACL2025NLP #BestDemo #NLPproc

🎉 #ACL2025NLP – Cherry on Top! 🎉 In addition to our conference papers, we’re thrilled to share that CoRAL also got a demo paper accepted: PRAISE: Enhancing Product Descriptions with LLM-Driven Structured Insights - Adnan Qidwai, Srija Mukhopadhyay, Prerana Khatiwada, @DanRothNLP, me - 🔗 Demo: project-praise.github.io/dem… CoRAL, @SCAI_ASU, @ASUEngineering @cogcomp, @PennEngineers @UDelaware, @iiit_hyderabad #NLP #AI #NLPProc #StructuredReasoning @aclmeeting

🎉 CHOMPS got accepted at #AACL2025 @aaclmeeting. See you in Mumbai ! #NLPProc Stay tuned for more!

🎉 #ACL2025NLP 🎉 CoRAL Lab @SCAI_ASU, @ASUEngineering has 4 papers accepted at ACL 2025! 🙌 All thanks 😊 🙏 and congratulations 🎉 🎊 to amazing students authors !! ✅ ACL-Main: 📌 GETReason – Enhancing Image Context Extraction through Hierarchical Multi-Agent Reasoning(Shikhhar, Abhinav, @cbaral, me) tldr: GETReason deciphers event images by linking geospatial, temporal, and event clues to deeper context—setting a new standard with the GREAT metric. 📌 Map&Make: Schema Guided Text to Table Generation (Naman, Fenil, @cbaral, me) tldr: A generalized framework for text-to-table generation via structure planning for guided table updation. ✅ ACL-Findings: 📌 LLM-Symbolic Integration for Robust Temporal Tabular Reasoning (Atharv, Kushagra, @viveksrikumar, @DanRothNLP, me) tldr: Temporal tabular QA is hard for LLMs—TempTabQA-C and our schema-aware SQL method with adaptive prompting boost robustness and performance. 📌 TabXEval – Why this is a Bad Table? An eXhaustive Rubric for Table Evaluation (Vihang, Jainil, Tejas, @manshri, me) tldr: A novel rubric based evaluation approach which is a comprehensive, explainable framework for evaluating tables. Big win for first-timers (Atharv, Vihang, Naman, Shikhhar, Abhinav, Tejas) 🎓 Huge Congratulations 🎉 🎊 🍾 🎈 to all co-authors — see you in Vienna!🇦🇹 #NLP #AI #NLPProc #StructuredReasoning @aclmeeting

Thrilled for the Best Paper Award runner-up at #NAACL2025! 🥳 Even when answers are incorrect, people may rely more on LLMs if they use warm and emphatic expressions! We analyze the risks of human over-reliance on LLM expressions of uncertainty: arxiv.org/pdf/2407.07950 w/ @KaitlynZhou @JenaHwang2 @nouhadziri @jurafsky @MaartenSap @stanfordnlp @allen_ai #NLPproc

As a @upennnlp PhD, my office mates and I brought a couch into our office. It didn't fit, was in the way, but we didn't care. We loved the (already old) couch. ~17 years on, some of my group got a tour to see the couch. It's mostly in one piece! A piece of #nlpproc history.

On my way to Bangkok for @aclmeeting and the @sdpworkshop #NLPproc #ACL2024nlp Here is the SDP program (August 16, Friday): sdproc.org/2024/program.html SDP proceedings seem to be published already: aclanthology.org/volumes/202…

The next conferences promotional videos presented at #NAACL2024 seem like a marketing pitch. Do we "scientists" need Hollywood-style videos to convince ourselves to submit a paper to a top NLP venue? Can we use this money to lower the barrier for underrepresented groups? It was unfortunate to see the organizers calling diversity in the participants that consist of less than 20% of the nations. You don't know what diversity is :) #nlpproc

Had a lot of fun presenting our paper on LLM modalities for graph reasoning at #NAACL2024 today! 🇲🇽 Please PM me if you'd like to collaborate on future directions of this exciting work! :) Paper link : aclanthology.org/2024.findin… #nlpproc #llms #graphs

Hi #nlpproc community, I'll be presenting mEdIT at #NAACL2024 tomorrow (June 19), 9am at "Don Alberto 3. Do join if you'd like to learn more about multilingual writing assistants! Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2402.16472v2 Data/Models: huggingface.co/collections/g…

I am at #naacl2024 in Mexico City this week and will be presenting our work on “Sequential Compositional Generalization in Multimodal Models” tomorrow. If you’re interested in #multimodality and compositional generalization looking forward to meeting you tomorrow to discuss our work and our findings. The session will be in Don Alberto 2 at 9:36 am. #nlpproc @naaclmeeting

How do LLMs represent and process syntactic structure? How do we separate out the effect of semantics when measuring for syntax? Video: youtube.com/watch?v=J6kyFd12… Paper: arxiv.org/pdf/2311.07497 Code: github.com/davidarps/spud #NAACL2024 #NLPProc We propose multilingual Nonce dependency treebanks in five languages; Arabic, English, French, German and Russian. We performed comprehensive experiments using both autoregressive and masked language models on word co-occurrence statistics and syntactic dependency probes. We found that while models indeed learn syntax independent of semantics, autoregressive language models and masked language models process syntactic knowledge differently.

Consistency of an edit across long text is important to evaluate the correctness of a model editing approach. See our recent work on long-form model editing Video: youtube.com/watch?v=8J3zlLkV… Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2402.09394 #nlpproc #naacl2024 #generative #AI
