Introduction:
Causal reasoning is a fundamental cognitive ability that allows humans to understand the cause-and-effect relationships in the world around them. Integrating causal reasoning capabilities into language models has emerged as a promising research direction, with significant implications for natural language processing (NLP) and artificial intelligence (AI) applications. The special issue on "Causal Reasoning in Language Models" aims to provide a platform for researchers to explore the latest advancements and challenges in this burgeoning field.
Topics of Interest:
We invite submissions on a wide range of topics related to causal reasoning in language models, including but not limited to:
- Causal inference techniques in natural language processing
- Evaluating causal understanding in large language models
- Causal representations in transformer architectures
- Counterfactual reasoning capabilities of language models
- Causal discovery from unstructured text data
- Incorporating causal knowledge into language model pre-training
- Causal explanation generation using language models
- Bias and fairness in causal language modeling
- Causal reasoning for improved few-shot and zero-shot learning
- Temporal and event causal reasoning in language models
- Theoretical frameworks for representing causal knowledge in language models
- Methodologies for incorporating causal reasoning into NLP tasks, such as text generation, question answering, and summarization
- Evaluation metrics and benchmarks for assessing the performance of causal reasoning models in language understanding tasks
- Applications of causal reasoning in real-world scenarios, including healthcare, finance, social media analysis, and more
- Ethical considerations and societal implications of integrating causal reasoning into AI systems
- Interdisciplinary approaches that combine insights from linguistics, cognitive science, and computer science to advance causal reasoning in language models
Submission Guidelines:
Papers submitted to this special issue must adhere to the submission guidelines of Information Processing & Management. Manuscripts should be original, unpublished works not currently under review elsewhere. All submissions will undergo a rigorous peer review process to ensure high quality and relevance to the special issue.

For survey track paper, please preface the descriptive paper title with “Survey:”, followed by the actual paper title. For example, a paper entitled “A Literature Review of Streaming Knowledge Graph”, should be changed as “Survey: A Literature Review of Streaming Knowledge Graph”. This is for the reviewers and chairs to clearly bid and handle the papers. Once the paper is accepted, the word, such as “Survey:”, can be removed from the camera-ready copy.
For special track paper, please preface the descriptive paper title with “SS##:”, where “##” is the two digits special track ID. For example, a paper entitled “Incremental Knowledge Graph Learning”, intended to target Special Track 01 (Machine learning and knowledge graph) should be changed as “SS01: Incremental Knowledge Graph Learning”.
All manuscripts are submitted as full papers and are reviewed based on their scientific merit. The reviewing process is single blind, meaning that each submission should list all authors and affiliations. There is no separate abstract submission step.
