The Eighth International Workshop on
Designing Meaning Representations
Submissions are not open yet. Deadlines, the submission link, and the style templates depend on the host conference and will be posted here once DMR 2027 is scheduled.
| Paper submission deadline | To be announced |
|---|---|
| Notification of acceptance | To be announced |
| Camera-ready papers due | To be announced |
| Workshop date | To be announced |
All deadlines will be 23:59 AoE.
DMR 2027 will invite long papers, short papers, position papers, resource papers, negative-results papers, and system demonstrations on the design, processing, and use of meaning representations. See the topics of interest for the scope of the workshop.
We plan to use OpenReview and to accept both direct submissions and papers committed from ACL Rolling Review, subject to compatibility with the host venue’s ARR deadlines and notification schedule. The call for papers will state clearly which submission types are archival and which may be non-archival presentations of already published work.
Reviewing will be double-blind: submissions must be anonymized, without author names and affiliations, and should avoid links to non-anonymized repositories.
Papers must use the official style templates of the host conference. Page limits, templates, and the author’s kit link will be posted here with the call for papers.
Dual submissions are allowed. Authors of papers that have been or will be submitted to other meetings or publications must inform the organizers at dmrworkshopofficial@gmail.com, listing the names and dates of the other venues. Authors of accepted papers must notify the organizers within 5 business days if the paper is withdrawn for any reason.
Meaning representations and neuro-symbolic systems can increase transparency and verifiability, but they can also encode cultural assumptions, ontology bias, annotation bias, or false claims of universality. Authors are encouraged to document the languages, domains, populations, annotation assumptions, and limitations of their representations and datasets. Work involving human data, generated content, or high-impact applications is expected to follow ACL ethics policies, and reviewers will be asked to consider whether claims about interpretability or “reasoning” are supported by appropriate evidence.
