\section{Introduction}
Note:
This template is based on the official ``Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) - SIG Proceedings Template'' provided on Overleaf. A documentation is provided in this project. The template is taken from Overleaf:

\todopink{
The official URL to this Overleaf template is:

If you look for a template for presentation, Fabian Singhofer is so kind to share his for DSBDA:

Section~\ref{sec:methods} provides a problem statement and introduces our models/methods.
The experimental apparatus is described in Section~\ref{sec:experimentalapparatus}.
An overview of the achieved results is reported in Section~\ref{sec:results}.
Section~\ref{sec:discussion} discusses the results, before we conclude.
\section{Related Work}
\label{sec:relatedwork}
Use~\cite{Abril07}
% or~\citep{Abril07} --- some other styles support this
or~\citet{Abril07}.
But always put a tilde (\~) before the \symbol{92}cite.
\section{Methods [or Models]}
\label{sec:methods}
Methods : Which methods do apply?
\subsection{[Problem Statement/Problem Formalization]}
\label{sec:problemstatement}
(if not done as part of the introduction)
\subsection{Assumptions}
- What are the assumptions that you make?
Note: make sure there is an explicit section or subsection called ``Assumptions'' in your paper.
\subsection{Methods for Aspect 1}
\todopink{Point of Discussion: Provide a bullet-itemized list of the aspects that are considered by your research.
For each aspect, provide a description of the methods/models used and proposed (own methods).
Make sure it is consistent with the research questions/contributions describe in the introduction.
\textit{Example}: Aspects are: a) clustering algorithms, b) embedding methods, c) similarity measures. Instances for a) are DBCAN, $k$-means, etc., b) TF-IDF, BERT, etc., c) cosine similarity.}
\begin{itemize}
\item Method 1

Follow the description of the experimental apparaturs given the structure below.
\todoyellow{Make sure to cover the questions provided in the EMNLP checklist, see Appendix~\ref{app:emnlp2021-checklist}.}
\subsection{Datasets}
\label{sec:datasets}
Datasets: Which datasets do you use?
Provide descriptive statistics, usually in tabluar form.
\todopink{Point of Discussion: Make sure that your datasets fit to the problem and research questions, respectively.
Make sure that the datasets are available.
Available means that you have a) the license obtained (if needed) and b) the datasets are actually on your disk (copied).}
\subsection{Preprocessing OR Pre-processing}
\label{sec:preprocessing}
\subsection{Procedure}
\label{sec:procedure}
\todopink{Point of Discussion: Describe which methods you use along the aspects defined in your research, on which datasets they are applied, etc. Make sure it reflect fully the experiments that you want to carry out according to your own plan defined in the research questions.}
Procedure : How do you run your experiments?
\todoyellow{Note: Preprocessing can also be part of procedure.}
\subsection{Hyperparameter Optimization}
\label{sec:hyperparameteroptimization}
\todoyellow{Note: If space is limited, this can be moved to supplementary materials}
\todopink{Point of Discussion: What are the (critical) hyperparameters that you need to consider (beyond the learning rate)?
How do you plan to optimize the hyperparameters with respect to the models and datasets?
What is the hyperparameter search space?}
\subsection{Measures OR Metrics}
\label{sec:measures}
Measure: How do you measure the results?
\section{Results}
\label{sec:results}
- Report your results in tabular or otherwise structured form.
- Limit to objective results, no interpretation of results
\subsection{RQ1 Results}
\label{sec:results-rq1}
\subsection{RQ2 Results}
\label{sec:results-rq2}
\subsection{... Results}
\label{sec:results-rq...}
\section{Discussion}
\label{sec:discussion}
- Now interpret and reflect on your results.
\subsection{Key Scientific Insights [Gained from the Results]}
\label{sec:keyresults}
- What is the key takeaway? Reflect on the results (what have we learned from them)?
- What are the key results of your research?
- What interesting insights could you obtain?
- Break down by research question.
\subsection{Threat to Validity}
\label{sec:threattovalidity}
- Why may your results be biased/not trustworthy? And why in fact are they trustworthy! How reliable are your analyses? Meaning, critically reflect on whether there may be errors / biases in your analyses. So: What (possible) threats exist that could have made the results unreliable, AND why are these not threats?
- Trick is to write down potential threats and explain why they don't hold true here!
– How reliable are your analyses? Meaning, critically reflect on whether there may be errors / biases in your analyses.
\subsection{Generalization}
\label{sec:generalization}
- Will the results be transferable/generalize to other datasets, tasks, models, etc?
- Can one transfer the insights/results to other datasets? ... other scenarios? ... other algorithms? Why can we assume that the results generalize?
Why?
\subsection{Future Work and Impact}
\label{sec:futurework}
What is future work?
What is the general impact of your work?
--- pick up arguments from introduction etc.
[- But also: What is the practical impact. ]
\section{Conclusion}
\label{sec:conclusion}
\todoyellow{Summarize the key results in an interesting and new way.
For example by expanding it to a general broader scope of science, economics, impact to life, etc. :-)}
Provide a brief outlook to future work! (If not described in the Section~\ref{sec:futurework})
\section*{Limitations}
- Reflect on the limitations of your work, so what conclusion cannot or should not be derived from the work.
See also EMNLP's \textbf{Mandatory Discussion of Limitations}.
\begin{quote}
We believe that it is also important to discuss the limitations of your work, in addition to its strengths. EMNLP 2023 requires all papers to have a clear discussion of limitations, in a dedicated section titled “Limitations”. This section will appear at the end of the paper, after the discussion/conclusions section and before the references, and will not count towards the page limit. Papers without a limitation section will be automatically rejected without review.
\end{quote}
[...]
\begin{quote}
While we are open to different types of limitations, just mentioning that a set of results have been shown for English only probably does not reflect what we expect. Mentioning that the method works mostly for languages with limited morphology, like English, is a much better alternative. In addition, limitations such as low scalability to long text, the requirement of large GPU resources, or other things that inspire crucial further investigation are welcome.

\subsection{Data Science Readings}
We are running a reading club on Data Science on Wednesdays.
\textbf{How it works:}
Idea of the reading club is to have a joined chat about recent research papers. Particular focus is text analytics and graph analytics, and general recent methods in deep learning.
Procedure is usually as follows:
\begin{itemize}
\item Someone proposes a paper/topic, which is well before the meeting disseminated.
\item So everyone has time to read the paper and is actually also expected to have read the paper (otherwise discussions are not so much fun!)
\item During the meeting, the proposer briefly summarizes the paper, including key strengths and weaknesses.
\item Followed by a round-robin quick feedback from everyone.
\item Discussion goes into the details ... :-)
\end{itemize}
\textbf{How to subscribe:}
