As of July 2025, there are 161 active members.
The SIGPARSE mailing list was migrated from a self-hosted service (at the University of Oslo) to Google Groups (sadly) in 2024.
This move caused a marked decimation in membership, both because invalid email addresses were filtered out and because members had to actively opt-in to the new service.

= Recent and Upcoming Events =

Upcoming: The next IWPT (the SIGPARSE conference) will be held in August 2025, as one of the events in SyntaxFest 2025 in Ljubljana, Slovenia. SIGPARSE is endorsing the four other SyntaxFest 2025 events: the 8th International Conference on Dependency Linguistics (Depling), the 23rd Workshop on Treebanks and Linguistic Theories (TLT), the 8th Universal Dependencies Workshop (UDW), and the 3rd Workshop on Quantitative Syntax (QUASY).

Recent: In 2024, SIGPARSE endorsed two workshops: the Joint Workshop on Multiword Expressions and Universal Dependencies (MWE-UD 2024) at LREC-COLING 2024, held in May, and the 22nd Workshop on Treebanks and Linguistic Theories (TLT 2024), held in December.

syntactic analysis of low-resource languages, semantic parsing, and parsing applications and evaluation.
The program featured 13 regular IWPT papers, 4 paper presentations
from Findings of ACL-IJCNLP, and 9 shared task papers, in addition to an invited talk by
Emily Pitler.
The IWPT shared task series was continued with

In July 2020, there are 256 registered members.

= Recent Events =

For 2020, SIGPARSE decided to try something new, where the original plan was not
to go virtual but rather to increase points of contact with the larger ACL community
by co-locating with one of the major conference.

[https://iwpt20.sigparse.org/ IWPT 2020] was accepted as a one-day event to be held
on July 9, 2020, in conjunction with ACL 2020 (in Seattle, WA, USA).
Despite much uncertainty around the 2020 conference season at the time (due to the
global pandemic caused by the novel corona virus), IWPT received a healthy
number of high-quality submissions (comparable in number to previous years,
but arguably somewhat stronger in quality), and the virtual-only event ended
up with a good scientific programme (including an invited talk by Paola Merlo).
Also new in 2020, IWPT has started a series of high-profile parsing-related
shared tasks; the inaugural
[https://universaldependencies.org/iwpt20/ IWPT 2020 Shared Task on Parsing into Enhanced Universal Dependencies]
was chaired by Gosse Bouma, Djamé Seddah, and Dan Zeman; the task attracted submissions from ten teams.

= Technical Infrastructure =

In the second half of 2019, SIGPARSE established its own domain http://www.sigparse.org and
has moved its web site, mailing list, and conference pages there.
Stephan Oepen (current SIGPARSE President) is the owner of the <code>sigparse.org</code> domain, for now.

For 2020, SIGPARSE decided to try something new, where the original plan was not
to go virtual but rather to increase points of contact with the larger ACL community
by co-locating with one of the major conference.

[https://iwpt20.sigparse.org/ IWPT 2020] was accepted as a one-day event to be held
on July 9, 2020, in conjunction with ACL 2020 (in Seattle, WA, USA).
Despite much uncertainty around the 2020 conference season at the time (due to the
global pandemic caused by the novel corona virus), IWPT received a healthy
number of high-quality submissions (comparable in number to previous years,
but arguably somewhat stronger in quality), and the virtual-only evende ended
up with a strong scientific programme.
Also new in 2020, IWPT has started its own series of high-profile parsing-related
shared task; the inaugural
[https://universaldependencies.org/iwpt20/ IWPT 2020 Shared Task on Parsing into Enhanced Universal Dependencies]
attracted submissions from ten teams.
