Dear colleagues,
We are pleased to announce the Call for Papers for the Seventh
International Workshop on Designing Meaning Representations (DMR 2026), to
be held at LREC 2026 in Palma de Mallorca, Spain.
Workshop website: https://dmr2026.github.io/
Submission deadline: February 28, 2026
DMR 2026 invites contributions on topics of interest include but are not
limited to:
Development and annotation of meaning representations
Challenges and techniques in leveraging meaning representations for
downstream applications, including neuro-symbolic approaches
The relationship between symbolic meaning representations and distributed
semantic representations
Issues in applying meaning representations to multilingual settings and
lower-resourced languages
Challenges and techniques in automatic parsing of meaning representations
Challenges and techniques in automatically generating text from meaning
representations
Meaning representation evaluation metrics
Cross-framework comparison of meaning representations and their formal
properties
Any other topics that address the design, processing, and use of meaning
representations
DMR 2026 introduces the first *shared task *on Parsing to Uniform Meaning
Representation (UMR), designed to benchmark the automatic prediction of UMR
structures across multiple languages.
The full CFP is attached as a PDF and also available on our website.
We would be grateful if you could share this announcement with interested
colleagues, students, and mailing lists.
Best regards,
