Analyzing and Interpreting Neural Networks for NLP

BlackboxNLP 2026: 9th Workshop on Analyzing and Interpreting Neural Networks for NLP

In conjunction with
Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing 2026
October 24-29, 2026
HungExpo
Budapest, Hungary

NLP Machine Learning

The leading interpretability venue in NLP, covering methods for understanding what language models learn and how they work. Interpretability has grown from a niche concern into a field with its own methods and disputes, including how to tell a genuine explanation from a plausible story about a model. Expect probing, circuit analysis and sharp methodological argument.
