CALL FOR PAPERS Second Workshop on "Next-Generation Models for Generative AI" (In conjunction with the Fifth International Conference on Digital Data Processing 2025-IEEE) University of Bedfordshire, Luton. UK August 18-20, 2025 (IEEE CPS will publish the proceedings, and papers should follow the IEEE template) AI models use billions of parameters to detect and retrieve text and images. The currently available LL models are being tested for efficiency, while newer models are also being developed. There are many challenges associated with generative AI. The pre-training volume and efficiency are a focus. To leverage the training set with comprehensiveness and accuracy, billions of parameters are injected into the LLM. Current GPTs face criticism, and governments are cautious about their use. The agenda for the future of Generative AI needs to be clarified. Improved generative tools should be capable of characterising extremist narratives in corpora to reveal different contexts, which may lead to building semantic-rich content for end-users. Evaluating the current models and their outcomes may inform future research. Considering these issues, we organised a workshop to address the theme of next-generation models. The workshop themes include, but are not limited to, the following. Text, Image, Code, Video, 3D models Domain-specific models Impact of Generative AI on Teaching and Learning Knowledge and Semantic Issues in Generative AI Future LLM AI Ethical Issues AI and NLP Embedding in AI Reinforcement learning Data Support and Datasets in AI Standards and Benchmarks Compositional generative models Workshop Chairs Gloria Tengyue Li North China University of Technology Beijing China Simon Fong University of Macau Macau Hathairat Ketmaneechairat King Mongkut’s University of Technology North Bangkok, Thailand Important Dates Submission of Papers: July 15, 2025 Notification of Acceptance/Rejection: August 10, 2025 Camera-ready: August 31, 2025 Registration: August 31, 2025 Conference Dates: August 18-20, 2025 Post-Conference Proceedings Release: November 30, 2025 Paper Submission: http://socio.org.uk/ddp/paper-submission Contact: ddp@socio.org.uk
