[CPM-SPIRE-L] French Cross-Domain Dialect Identification (FDI) task @VarDial2022

[Adrian-Gabriel CHIFU]

Dear all,

With apologies for the cross-posting.

We are organizing the French Cross-Domain Dialect Identification (FDI) task @VarDial2022.

Contact: raducu.ionescu at gmail.com <mailto:raducu.ionescu at gmail.com>

In the 2022 French Dialect Identification (FDI) shared task, participants have to train a model on news samples collected from a set of publication sources and evaluate it on news samples collected from a different set of publication sources. Not only the sources are different, but also the topics. Therefore, participants have to build a model for a cross-domain 4-way classification by dialect task, in which a classification model is required to discriminate between the French (FH), Swiss (CH), Belgian (BE) and Canadian (CA) dialects across different news samples. The corpus is divided into training, validation and test, such that the publication sources and topics are distinct across splits. The training set contains 358,787 samples. The development set is composed of 18,002 samples. Another set of 36,733 samples are kept for the final evaluation.

Important Dates:
- Training set release: May 20, 2022
- Test set release: June 30, 2022
- Submissions due: July 6, 2022
