Task #2: IndicWG 2025

Shared Task on Word Group Identification in Indian Languages


This shared task aims to introduce and regularize the concept of Word Grouping in Indian languages. Word grouping is a process wherein, given a plain text sentence in an Indian language, the task is to output a sequence of word groups, where each group represents a semantically cohesive unit.
Supervised Monolingual Word Group Identification
The participants are expected to build models for word group identification within a single Indian language, using fully supervised data. Training and development data will be provided for Hindi language. Participants must predict semantically cohesive word groups on a held-out test set in the same language. Use of any approach -- rule-based, statistical, or neural models -- is allowed. Evaluation will focus on boundary-level matching and group-level correctness. This task serves as the foundational task to establish baselines for word grouping quality.
