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

We invite submissions to the fifth biennial conference on Language, Data 
and Knowledge (LDK 2025) to be held in Naples, Italy in September 2025. 
This conference aims to bring together researchers from across different 
disciplines concerned with the acquisition, treatment, curation and the 
use of language data in the context of data science and knowledge-based 
applications. This edition builds upon the success of the inaugural 
event held in Galway, Ireland in 2017, the second LDK in Leipzig, 
Germany in 2019, the third LDK in Zaragoza, Spain in 2021, and the 
fourth LDK in Vienna, Austria in 2023.

Paper Submission
We welcome submissions of relevance to the topics listed below. 
Submissions can be in the form of:
Long papers: 9–12 pages;
Short papers: 4–6 pages.

All submission lengths are given including references. Accepted 
submissions will be published in an open-access conference proceedings 
volume and indexed in ACL anthology and DBLP, free of charge for 
authors. The ACL templates should therefore be used for all conference 
submissions.

As the reviewing process is single-blind, submissions should not be 
anonymised. Papers should be submitted via OpenReview at the following 
address:
https://openreview.net/group?id=LDK/2025/Conference

All papers must represent original work. When submitted, the submission 
must not have been previously published*, and the material in it must 
not have been/be submitted for review at another journal or conference 
while under review at LDK 2025.
*This excludes papers on preprint archives, such as arXiv, which we do 
not consider to have been previously published.

The conference will be hybrid (face-to-face and remote). Note that at 
least one author of each accepted paper must register to present the 
paper at the conference (either remotely or on-site).
