First Workshop on Causal Inference & NLP

November 10, 2021 at EMNLP 2021

Workshop coordinates for registered attendees: Punta Cana 3 (on-site), Zoom (virtual), Twitter (live thread)

The CI+NLP workshop brings together domain and methodological experts across academic communities, with an interest in the intersection of causal inference and natural language processing. Together, we will explore how current and new NLP methodology can contribute to establishing and evaluating causal relationships, and how substantive expertise from different domains can contribute to answering causal questions with text.
