CFP: PromptEng 2024 @WWW

Hello All,

Apologies for cross-posts

******************************************************

CALL FOR PAPERS: 1st Workshop on Prompt Engineering for Pre-Trained
Language Models

Co-located with The Web Conference 2024, Singapore

Submission Deadline: *5th February 2024*

Workshop: 14th May 2024

******************************************************

== MOTIVATION ==

The recent achievements and availability of Large Language Models has paved
the road to a new range of applications and use-cases. Pre-trained language
models are now being involved at-scale in many fields where they were until
now absent from. More specifically, the progress made by causal generative
models has opened the door to using them through textual instructions, aka.
Prompts. Unfortunately, the performances of these prompts are highly
dependent on the exact phrasing used, and therefore practitioners need to
adopt fail-retry strategies.

In a nutshell, PromptEng provides the research community with a forum to
discuss, exchange and design advanced prompting techniques for LLM
applications.

This first international workshop on prompt engineering aims at gathering
practitioners (both from Academia and Industry) to exchange good practices,
optimizations, results and novel paradigms about the designing of efficient
prompts to make use of LLMs.


== IMPORTANT DATES ==

- Submission: February 5th, 2024

- Notification: March 4th, 2024

- Camera-ready: March 11th, 2024

- Presentation: May 14th, 2024

Note: All deadlines are 23:59 AOE.


== TOPICS ==

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to themes related to the
techniques of prompt engineering:

* Prompts & Chain-of-Thought Prompts Design

* Theoretical and Experimental Analysis of Prompting

* Prompts Transferability

* Specific prompt techniques for Web crawling

* Ontology generation combining LLM and Web data

* Semantic and Syntactic comparison of prompt performances

* Structured Prediction with Prompts

* Prompt Retrieval and Generation

* Visualization with Prompt Techniques


== SUBMISSION GUIDELINES ==

We envision five types of submissions covering the entire workshop topics
spectrum:

1. Research Papers (max 10 pages), presenting novel scientific research
addressing topics of the workshop.

2. Position & Demo papers (max 5 pages), encouraging papers describing
significant work in progress, late breaking results or ideas of the domain,
as well as functional systems relevant to the community.

3. Industry & Use Case Presentations (max 5 pages), in which industry
experts can present and discuss practical solutions, use case prototypes,
best practices, etc. at any stage of implementation.

4. Expression of Interest (max 2 pages), presenting a research topic, a
work in progress, practical applications or needs, etc.

5. Technical prompting technique (max 2 pages), describing practically a
prompt together with a minimal working example and an associated use-case
motivating it.

Submissions must be in double-column format, and must adhere to the ACM
template and format <https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template>
(also available
<https://www.overleaf.com/latex/templates/association-for-computing-machinery-acm-sig-proceedings-template/bmvfhcdnxfty>
in Overleaf). The recommended setting for LaTeX is: \documentclass[sigconf,
anonymous, review]{acmart}. The PDF files must have all non-standard fonts
embedded. Workshop submissions must be self-contained and in English. Note:
The review process is single-blind, no need for authors to submit anonymous
articles.

All papers should be submitted to
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=thewebconf2024_workshops .
