<br>SCOPE OF THE WORKSHOP<br><br>The workshop will provide a forum for researchers and practitioners from the fields of natural language processing, computational linguistics and cognitive science to their ideas and investigations. Given the breadth of the topic, we welcome papers from many perspectives, including but not limited to computational linguistics, psycholinguistics, cognitive psychology, language learning, artificial intelligence, etc. The aim of this workshop is to foster interactions among researchers and practitioners in Natural Language Processing (NLP) by taking a Cognitive Science perspective. Hence, topics of interest include, but are not limited to:<br>
<br>- Computational Models of NLP </div><div dir="ltr">- Cognitive and Psychological Models of NLP </div><div dir="ltr">- Emotion and Language Processing </div><div dir="ltr">- Evolutionary NLP </div><div dir="ltr">- Discourse Processing </div>
<div dir="ltr">- Pragmatics and NLP </div><div dir="ltr">- Social Cognition of Language </div><div dir="ltr">- Embodied and Situated NLP </div><div dir="ltr">- Multimodality in Speech / Text Processing </div><div dir="ltr">
- Text Summarisation and Information Extraction </div><div dir="ltr">- Natural Language Interfaces and Dialogue Systems </div><div dir="ltr">- Translation and Machine Translation </div><div dir="ltr">- Multi-Lingual Processing </div>
<div dir="ltr">- Speech Processing </div><div dir="ltr">- Tools and Resources in NLP </div><div dir="ltr">- Corpus Linguistics </div><div dir="ltr">- Text mining </div><div dir="ltr">- Ontologies<br><br>These topics can be addressed from any of the following perspectives: full automation by machines for machine (traditional NLP or Human Language Technology), semi-automated processing, i.e. machine-mediated processing (programs assisting people in their tasks), and simulation of human cognitive process.<br>
