In collaboration with @CommonCrawl@MLCommons@AiEleuther, the first edition of WMDQS at @COLM_conf starts tomorrow in Room 520A! We have an updated schedule on our website, including a list of all accepted papers.
We will also have a session on our shared task, which was about improving language identification models. Participants of the shared task contributed annotations to create a new LangID dataset and also submitted new LangID systems.
One of the biggest obstacles to improving language technologies for low-resource languages is the lack of data. To address this, we need better language identification tools. So, we're organizing a shared task on Language Identification for Web Data!
