6th Workshop on Data Science with Human in the Loop
@ VLDB 2025

Motivation

The aim of this workshop is to stimulate research on the cooperation between humans and computers within the broad area of natural language processing, including but not limited to information extraction, information retrieval and text mining, machine translation, dialog systems, question answering, language generation, summarization, model interpretability, evaluation, fairness, and ethics. We invite researchers and practitioners to explore novel approaches for optimizing human-computer collaboration and minimizing human intervention in data management and processing pipelines across diverse tasks and applications.

Goal

This workshop will bring together interdisciplinary researchers from academia, research labs and practice to share, exchange, learn, and develop preliminary results, new concepts, ideas, principles, and methodologies on understanding and improving human-computer interaction in natural language processing. We expect the workshop to help develop and grow a strong community of researchers who are interested in this topic and to yield future collaborations and scientific exchanges across the relevant areas of computational linguistics, natural language processing, data mining,  machine learning, data and knowledge management, human-machine interaction, and intelligent user interfaces.
