ABSTRACT
The workshop on Supporting and Understanding of (multi-party) conversational Dialogues (SUD) seeks to encourage researchers to investigate automated methods to analyze and understand conversations, and also explore methodologies for proactively providing assistance to the communicating parties during conversations, ranging from summarizing the minutes of meetings to automatically keeping track of action items etc. The workshop will have (1) a regular research paper track, and a more focused (2) data challenge track, inviting papers on a specific task of contextualizing entities of interest from conversation dialogues.
