NFDI4DS Shared AI Tasks provide a framework for scientifically exciting and challenging tasks for the NFDI4DS community. A Shared Task is a friendly competition to solve a research problem in the field of data science and AI hosted as a scientific event.

NFDI4DS is organizing an extensive line-up of Shared Tasks – more than 20 so far. Each Shared Task comes with a specific challenge and a dataset. All our Shared Tasks are conducted in the context of well-known international events with published proceedings. A peer review assures the quality of the selected solutions.

One highlight in 2026 was the third iteration of the NFDI4DS-organized workshop on natural scientific language processing (NSLP 2026) co-located with the ESWC conference. It hosted two Shared Tasks:  (1) “Scientific Fact-checking of Social Media Posts on Climate Change (ClimateCheck)” and (2) “Software Mention Detection in Scholarly Publications (SOMD)”.

Enabling DMP services for the agrosystems research community: DMP4NFDI in FAIRagro

FAIRagro DMP Service Strengthens Research Data Management in Agricultural Systems Research
In collaboration with DMP4NFDI, FAIRagro has established a comprehensive service for data management plans (DMPs) tailored to agricultural systems research. Built on the open-source Research Data Management Organiser (RDMO), the service provides a discipline-specific DMP template with detailed guidance, predefined answer options, and direct access to the FAIRagro Helpdesk. It helps researchers meet funder requirements, promotes good research practice, and improves the findability, accessibility, and reusability of research data in line with the FAIR principles. Developed through a series of joint incubator projects with DMP4NFDI, the service continues to evolve, including the future integration of controlled vocabularies in collaboration with TS4NFDI.
