Popis:	A lot of claims are made in social media posts, which may contain misinformation or fake news. Hence, it is crucial to identify claims as a first step towards claim verification. Given the huge number of social media posts, the task of identifying claims needs to be automated. This competition deals with the task of 'Claim Span Identification' in which, given a text, parts / spans that correspond to claims are to be identified. This task is more challenging than the traditional binary classification of text into claim or not-claim, and requires state-of-the-art methods in Pattern Recognition, Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning. For this competition, we used a newly developed dataset called HECSI containing about 8K posts in English and about 8K posts in Hindi with claim-spans marked by human annotators. This paper gives an overview of the competition, and the solutions developed by the participating teams. Comment: To appear at ICPR 2024
