=================================

In recent years, Natural Language Processing (NLP) has increasingly intersected with the humanities and social sciences, 

offering new methodologies for analyzing textual data, interpreting meaning, and modelling (IF WE WANT BRITISH SPELLING, 

WE MIGHT NOT?) language-based phenomena. The potential for multi-disciplinary research using NLP methods is particularly  

 great in computational semantics (CS, as its ability to process and represent meaning opens up innovative pathways for 

researchers in history, philosophy, literary studies, political science, etc.  This workshop aims to explore how semantic

 models and tools can be leveraged to tackle traditional and emerging questions in the Humanities in a broader sense (Social 

Sciences, Law, Economics, Management, Literature, Languages, Art, …). 

A major theme of  SIR is the role of semantics in NLP applied to the humanities (both statistical and symbolic approaches).

=== Topics to Explore ===
    • CS and the humanities: issues, tools and applications.
    • Quantitative and qualitative approaches as a breakthrough in the  Humanities
    • NLP transforming humanities issues
    • Contributions and limitations for understanding meaning
    • Links between formal semantics and neural models
    • Ambiguity, polyphony and interpretation in theHumanities
    • Ethics and bias in semantic modeling
    • Interdisciplinary dialogue between AI, NLP and Humanities
