14 - 18 June 2021, Second NAtural LOgic meets MAchine Learning Workshop (NALOMA'21), Online, Netherlands

After the successful completion of NALOMA'20 (NAtural LOgic Meets MAchine Learning), NALOMA'21 seeks to continue the series and attract exciting contributions.  NALOMA'21 is set out to address two main issues of the NLI community. First, the approaches and systems currently used to address NLI are too one-dimensional: they are either purely DL or purely symbolic but do not attempt to combine the two worlds. A second issue concerns datasets: existing NLI datasets are either complex enough but too small to be used for proper learning, or large enough but too easy to be claimed to represent human inference. The workshop aims to bridge the gap between ML/DL and symbolic/logic-based approaches to NLI, and it is perhaps the only workshop organized to do so. It will take place from June 14-June 18, 2021, during the International Conference on Computational Semantics (IWCS 2021) organized by the University of Groningen but taking place fully online due to the pandemic.
