Topics of Interest

The 2nd workshop Interactive Learning for Natural Language Processing will take place on December 3, 2022 in New Orleans, LA, USA, as part of NeurIPS Workshops. We'd like to invite you to submit papers in any of the areas covered by the title, as well as the following topics with focus on NLP:

  • Learning through interaction with human users
  • Active learning, reinforcement learning, bandit learning in interactions
  • Human feedback and preferences as learning signal
  • Modeling for interactive learning
  • User effort and experience in interactive learning scenarios
  • Evaluation and reproducibility in interactive learning systems
  • Benchmarks, tasks, and datasets for interactive learning
  • Empirical results for applications of interactive methods

Submission Format

A submission should be made via OpenReview in the form of a short 4-page extended abstract using the NeurIPS LaTeX style. Manuscripts should be anonymized in accordance with the same rules as NeurIPS papers. References and appendices can extend as far beyond the 4-page limit as needed. We accept new and original work, as well as submissions describing previously published work. The workshop is non-archival.

Accepted papers will be presented as posters or contributed talks in the workshop.
