The International Workshop on Sustainable AI for Natural Language
Processing (SusAI 2024)

Co-Located with



The 2nd International Conference on Foundation and Large Language Models
(FLLM2024) <https://fllm2024.fllm-conference.org/index.php>



https://fllm2024.fllm-conference.org/Workshops/SusAI2024/



26-29 November, 2024 | Dubai, UAE

Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE UAE Section

*LLMCS 2024 CFP:*

Many recent research efforts aim at developing models able to present
results as accurate as Foundation Models and Large Language Models and, at
the same time, that can be trained, stored and run with limited
computational resources. SusAI workshop aims at gathering researchers,
present new trends and highlight new ideas about sustainable AI. In
particular, it will present approaches, both at the training and at the
inference levels, for obtaining lighter models, requiring less energy for
training and/or able to be run on edge devices.

Significant topics are related, but not limited to, different techniques
and methods aiming at developing models going towards sustainable AI, which
can be applied across a wide range of use cases, with particular regard to
Natural Language Processing tasks:

   - Data scaling and data sampling
   - Hyperparameters optimization
   - Memory-efficient model architectures
   - Model pruning
   - Knowledge distillation
   - Quantization
   - Matrix decomposition
   - Neuro-morphic paradigm
   - Quantum computing



*Submissions Guidelines and Proceedings*

Manuscripts should be prepared in 10-point font using the IEEE 8.5" x 11"
two-column format. All papers should be in PDF format, and submitted
electronically at Paper Submission Link. A full paper can be up to 6 to 8
pages (including all figures, tables and references). Submitted papers must
present original unpublished research that is not currently under review
for any other conference or journal. Papers not following these guidelines
may be rejected without review. Also submissions received after the due
date, exceeding length limit, or not appropriately structured may also not
be considered. Authors may contact the Program Chair for further
information or clarification. All submissions are peer-reviewed by at least
three reviewers. Accepted papers will appear in the FLLM Proceeding, and be
published by the IEEE Computer Society Conference Publishing Services and
be submitted to IEEE Xplore for inclusion. Submitted papers must include
original work, and must not be under consideration for another conference
or journal. Submission of regular papers up to 8 pages and must follow the
IEEE paper format. Please include up to 7 keywords, complete postal and
email address, and fax and phone numbers of the corresponding author.
Authors of accepted papers are expected to present their work at the
conference. Submitted papers that are deemed of good quality but that could
not be accepted as regular papers will be accepted as short papers.

*Important Dates:*

   - *Paper submission deadline: September 10, 2024*
   - Notification of acceptance: October 5, 2024
   - Camera-ready Submission: October 20, 2024
