The CoMeDi (Context and Meaning鈥擭avigating Disagreements in NLP Annotations) workshop will host a shared task. We invite participants to solve two subtasks given a pair of words uses:
Subtask 1: Ordinal Word-in-Context Classification (OGWiC)
Subtask 2: Disagreement in Word-in-Context Ranking (DisWiC)
The task takes a different view on modeling of word meaning by (i) treating WiC as an ordinal classification task, and (ii) making disagreement the explicit detection aim (instead of removing it).

The idea that messages encoded in speakers' utterances are subsequently decoded by hearers has long been abandoned within pragmatics in favor of an inferential model which views meaning derivation as an interactional process to which the subjectivities, emotions, and cognitive environments of both speakers and hearers (as well as eventual third parties) actively take part. This inferential approach
