Shared Tasks
We are pleased to endorse the following shared tasks and strongly encourage participants to take part and submit their papers to the workshop:
- Task 1 - Adversarial Prompt Classification: Classifying Bangla prompts, from harmless requests to jailbreak attempts, into four risk levels (Safe, Offensive, Harmful, Severe), whether written in Bangla script, romanized Bangla, or code-mixed with other languages.
- Task 2 - Multilingual Question Answering: Culturally and regionally grounded open-ended QA in Bangla, English, Assamese, and Hindi, with monolingual QA and multilingual QA settings based on the MultiNativQA resource.
- Task 3 - BLP Datathon: Collecting regional Bangla speech recordings and identifying where open-source automatic speech recognition (ASR) models struggle with different dialects and accents through community-driven participation.
If you participate in these shared tasks, you are highly encouraged to submit a system description paper to the workshop by the submission deadline.
