2nd Workshop on Computational Humor (CHum 2026)
===============================================

The 2nd Workshop on Computational Humor (CHum 2026) will take place 
virtually on July 3 or 4, 2026 as part of the 64th Annual Meeting of the 
the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL 2026).

Scope and topics
----------------

CHum 2026 aims to foster further work on modeling the processes of humor 
with current methods in computational linguistics and natural language 
processing, against the theoretical backdrop of humor research and with 
reference to relevant corpora of textual, visual, and multimodal 
materials. A principal goal of the workshop is to unite researchers who 
can together probe the limits of various meaning representations -- 
symbolic, neural, and hybrid -- for humor processing.

We welcome contributions on any topic relevant to the computational 
processing of humor, including but not limited to the following:

* LLMs, knowledge representation
* Resources and evaluation
* Human-computer interaction
* Computer-mediated communication
* Assisted content creation
* Machine and computer-assisted translation
* Digital humanities applications
* Formal modeling of humor
* Proof-of-concept humor detection and classification

Particularly encouraged are submissions describing inter- or 
multi-disciplinary work, whether completed or in progress, and position 
papers that critically discuss the past, present, and future of 
computational humor systems.

Submission instructions
-----------------------

Long and short papers should be formatted according to the same 
guidelines for the main ACL 2026 conference papers 
<https://2026.aclweb.org/calls/main_conference_papers/> and submitted 
through START: <https://softconf.com/acl2026/chum2026/>

Important dates
---------------

All deadlines are at 23:59 UTC-12:00 ("anywhere on Earth").

* Initial submission: April 9, 2026 (extended from March 5, 2026)
* Notification of acceptance: April 28, 2026
* Camera-ready submission: May 12, 2026
* Workshop: July 3 or 4, 2026

Organizers
----------

* Christian F. Hempelmann, East Texas A&M University
* Julia Rayz, Purdue University
* Ori Amir, Fulbright University Vietnam
* Tristan Miller, University of Manitoba
* Tiansi Dong, University of Cambridge
