<div><br></div><div>Workshop to be held in conjunction with the </div><div>International Congress of Linguists, July 2013, Geneva (CH)</div><div><a href="http://www.cil19.org">www.cil19.org</a></div><div><br></div><div>==========================================================================</div>
<div><br></div><div>Nowadays, theoretical morphology witnesses a revival due to the emergence of new formalization frameworks, both for inflectional and lexical morphology: canonical morphology, approaches based on analogy, rule-based approaches, to name just a few. All these approaches can potentially shed new light on computational processing of morphology, either for parsing or generation. In parallel, new computational techniques (such as (un-)supervised morphological acquisition) and formal frameworks bring a fresh look on morphological phenomena. Both domains tackle more or less implicitly the organization of the lexicon in general. The TACMO workshop aims at gathering these two facets of morphology - computational and theoretical formalization - in order to foster interactions and to highlight how both approaches benefit from each other.</div>
<div><br></div><div>We mainly expect (but not exclusively) communication proposals on the following topics:</div><div>- Inflectional, derivational and compositional morphology.</div><div>- Problems raised by non affixal processes (templatic morphology, reduction and truncation, reduplication, blending and conversion)</div>
<div>- Semantics-morphology interface and its role in the organization of the lexicon.</div><div>- Syntax-morphology interface and its role in NLP systems.</div><div>- Conception of lexical resources enriched with morphological information.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Talk proposals should especially focus on the innovative aspects of the formalization and/or its benefits for automation. For computational approaches, the focus should be put on the new perspective that the implementation can bring on morphological descriptions.</div>
<div><br></div><div>SUBMISSIONS:</div><div>Authors should submit an anonymous extended abstract (3-4 pages) in English, containing the title of the talk, keywords and references. Abstract should be written in usual font (typically Times 12pt) and submitted in pdf format.</div>
<div>All abstracts will be blind reviewed by two members of the Scientific Committee. A book of abstract will be distributed at the workshop.</div><div><br></div><div>IMPORTANT DATE:</div><div>- July 15 2012: Deadline for abstract submission</div>
