TermTrends25: Bridging the Gap between Terminological Resources and Large Language Models

When: 9th September 2025
Where: Università degli Studi di Napoli L'Orientale - Palazzo del Mediterraneo, Naples, Italy (and online - hybrid event)

TermTrends 2025 is a half-day workshop co-located with LDK 2025 that aims to provide a discussion forum on theoretical and methodological approaches for the integration of language resources, and specifically terminological resources, published following Linked Data principles, into the optimisation of LLM pipelines.

In particular, this event focuses on how terminological resources can be leveraged to enhance the performance of LLMs at different stages of their lifecycle, from pre-training and fine-tuning to evaluation and application.

To this end, the workshop intends to explore the advantages and challenges of leveraging Linked Data-compliant language resources in the context of LLMs. This includes examining how existing standards for representing terminological data, such as TermBase eXchange (TBX) format, and Semantic Web models like SKOS and Ontolex-lemon, can be adapted or extended to meet the needs of LLM development. In addition, the workshop aims to discuss innovative ways to integrate language resources published as Linked Data into LLM workflows to address issues such as domain adaptation, bias mitigation, and the interpretability of model outputs.

The topics of interest for this workshop include, but are not limited to, the following topics:

Analysis of the usefulness of language resources, with a special interest in terminological resources published as Linked Data, in pre-training and fine-tuning LLMs.
Approaches to represent and integrate Linked Data-based terminological data in formats compatible with LLM architectures.
Limitations of current terminological standards and models for LLM-specific use cases.
Identification of new use cases and opportunities for Linked Data-based terminological resources to support the development and evaluation of LLMs.
Exploration of LLM capabilities in generating and enriching terminological resources for Linked Data applications.
Investigation of the LLM potential in automatic conversion of unstructured or semistructured terminological resources to Semantic Web formats.
