Recent Events

IWPT 2020 was held as a one-day online event in one of the ACL 2020 workshop slots. It featured a strong technical program, with a comparable number of submissions as previous editions, an invited talk by Paola Merlo, and the first IWPT shared task: IWPT 2020 Shared Task on Parsing into Enhanced Universal Dependencies. The task attracted submissions from ten teams.

IWPT 2021 will again be held as a one-day online event in one of the ACL-IJCNLP 2021 workshop slots, and will continue the IWPT shared task series with the IWPT 2021 Shared Task on Parsing into Enhanced Universal Dependencies.

The number of regular paper submissions was in line with the past several editions of IWPT covering a wide range of parsing-related topics, including theoretical findings, syntactic analysis of low-resource languages, semantic parsing, and parsing applications and evaluation. This year the program will feature 13 regular IWPT papers, 4 papers presentations from Findings of ACL-IJCNLP, and 9 shared task papers, in addition to an invited talk by Emily Pitler.
