Knowledge Base Construction

Dear All,

This is Michal Ptaszynski from Kitami Institute of Technology, Japan.

Please allow me to invite you to participate in the First Shared Task for Automatic Cyberbullying Detection from Polish Twitter under the PolEval 2019 conference.

There are two tasks: 1) detecting harmful tweets in general, and 2) detecting the type of harmfulness (cyberbullying or hate-speech). Training data for both sub-tasks is available now. Test data with the scoring script will be made available on March 7, after which there will be one week for generating results.

Second call for participation in the 4th SIGMORPHON shared task: Crosslinguality and Context in Morphological Inflection! This year, we present three new tasks.

All details, data, code (with pretrained models), and instructions are available on the website (https://sigmorphon.github.io/sharedtasks/2019/). We provide an overview of the tasks below:
