Workshop on NLP Applications to Field Linguistics Call for Papers Field Matters 2027 Field Matters 2026 Field Matters 2025 Field Matters 2024 Field Matters 2023 Field Matters 2022
Field linguistics plays a crucial role in the development of linguistic theory and universal language modelling, as it provides uncontested, the only way to obtain structural data about the rapidly diminishing diversity of natural languages.
The Field matters workshop aims to bring together the urgent needs of field linguists and the vast community of NLP practitioners, developing up-to-date NLP tools for easier, faster, more reliable data collection and annotation.
The workshop will take place at EACL 2027

We invite both archival and non-archival submissions. Non-archival submissions are 2-page abstracts that could present already published work or work in progress. Archival submissions should be either 4- or 8-pages long.
Dual submissions with the main conference are allowed, but authors must declare dual submission by entering the paper’s main conference submission id. The reviews for the submission for the main conference will be automatically forwarded to the workshop and taken into consideration when your paper is evaluated. Authors of dual-submission papers accepted to the main conference should retract them from the workshop by February 1.
Papers posted to preprint servers such as arxiv can be submitted without any restrictions on when they were posted.
Authors of accepted archival papers should upload the final version of their paper to the submission system by the camera-ready deadline. Authors may use one extra page to address reviewer comments, for a total of nine pages.
