We invite contributions that apply methods from computational linguistics to problems in the cognitive modeling of any and all natural language abilities. The 2014 workshop follows in the tradition of earlier CMCL meetings at ACL 2010, ACL 2011, NAACL-HLT 2012, ACL 2013. Scope and Topics ------------------------ The workshop invites a broad spectrum of work in the cognitive science of language, at all levels of analysis from sounds to discourse and on both learning and processing. Topics include, but are not limited to: - incremental parsers for diverse grammar formalisms - derivations of quantitative measures of comprehension difficulty, or predictions regarding generalization in language learning - stochastic models of factors encouraging one production or interpretation over its competitors - models of semantic/pragmatic interpretation, including psychologically realistic notions of word meaning, phrase meaning, composition, and pragmatic inference - models and empirical analysis of the relationship between mechanistic psycholinguistic principles and pragmatic or semantic adaptation - models of human language acquisition and/or adaptation in a changing linguistic environment - models of linguistic information propagation and language change in communication networks - models of lexical acquisition, including phonology, morphology, and semantics - psychologically motivated models of grammar induction or semantic learning Submissions are especially welcomed that combine computational modeling work with empirical data (e.g., corpora or experiments) to test theoretical questions about the nature of human language acquisition, comprehension, and/or production. Submissions ----------------- This call solicits full papers reporting original and unpublished research that combines cognitive modeling and computational linguistics. Accepted papers are expected to be presented at the workshop and will be published in the workshop proceedings. They should emphasize obtained results rather than intended work, and should indicate clearly the state of completion of the reported results. A paper accepted for presentation at the workshop must not be presented or have been presented at any other meeting with publicly available proceedings. If essentially identical papers are submitted to other conferences or workshops as well, this fact must be indicated at submission time. No submission should be longer than necessary, up to a maximum 8 pages plus two additional pages containing references. To facilitate double-blind reviewing, submitted manuscripts should not include any identifying information about the authors. Submissions must be formatted using ACL 2014 style files available at http://www.cs.jhu.edu/ACL2014/CallforPapers.htm Contributions should be submitted in PDF via the submission site: https://www.softconf.com/acl2014/CMCL/ The submission deadline is 11:59PM Pacific Time on March 15, 2014. Best Student Paper -------------------------- The best paper whose first author is a student will receive the Best Student Paper award. Publication All accepted CMCL papers will be published in the workshop proceedings as is customary at ACL conferences. Important Dates --------------------- Submission deadline: 15 March 2014 Notification of acceptance: 11 April 2014 Camera-ready versions due: 28 April 2014 Workshop: June 26, 2014 Workshop Chairs ----------------------- Vera Demberg Multimodal Computing and Interaction Cluster of Excellence, Saarland University, Germany Tim O’Donnell Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA Program Committee --------------------------- Afra Alishahi, Tilburg University Klinton Bicknell, University of Rochester Alexander Clark, King's College London Jennifer Culbertson, George Mason Afsaneh Fazly, University of Toronto Bob Frank, Yale Stefan Frank, Radboud University Nijmegen Stella Frank, University of Edinburgh John T.

Here are a few words about what it is: How well have classic ideas on whole-word phonology stood the test of time? Waterson claimed that each child has a system of their own; Ferguson and Farwell emphasised the relative accuracy of first words; Menn noted the occurrence of regression and the emergence of phonological systematicity. This volume brings together classic texts such as these with current data-rich studies of British and American English, Arabic, Brazilian Portuguese, Finnish, French, Japanese, Polish and Spanish. This combination of classic and contemporary work from the last 30 years presents the reader with cutting-edge perspectives on child language by linking historical approaches with current ideas such as exemplar theory and usage-based phonology and contrasting state-of-the-art perspectives from developmental psychology and linguistics. This is a valuable resource for cognitive scientists, developmentalists, linguists, psychologists, speech scientists and therapists interested in understanding how children begin to use language without the benefit of language-specific innate knowledge. -marilyn vihman & tamar keren-portnoy (editors) Marilyn M.

We are thinking ahead to work on the Words and Sentences version. We have already collected some data which colleagues kindly contributed for the appropriate age group for Words and Sentences but we are hoping that some people may have more data they'd be able to share with us. If you have any VOCABULARY data that you don't think we have, collected in the UK using a version of the CDI (whether that was a version adapted for the UK or not), on toddlers aged 16 to about 39 months, we'd love to be able to use your data. It needs to be at the word level. It doesn't need to have the questions about whether the child "understands" a word, just about whether the child "says" a word (but, for this purpose, it's OK if it does have the "understands" question). We'd also love to hear from anyone who has data they may be able to share on the grammar/phrases/question section of a CDI for this age range, again collected in the UK. If you only used a few grammar questions, we'd still love to look at your data - whether or not you used a CDI that was adapted for the UK. If you have data you'd like to share, we can talk about how this would work (we have made a variety of arrangements for sharing W&G age-range data).

Re your CI speak/sign question, there is an excellent article in press by Bencie Woll and colleagues that shows it is imperative that children receive symbolic input from very early on, regardless of whether it is gestural or oral (for Deaf children): *Lyness, C.R., Woll, B., Campbell, R., & Vardin, V. (in press). How does visual language affect crossmodal plasticity and cochlear implant success? Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews (2013), http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.neubiorev.2013.08.011* Re your question regarding home language use by parents in immigration situations: allow me to refer you to extensive discussion in Chapter 4 of De Houwer, A., 2009. Bilingual First Language Acquisition, Bristol: Multilingual Matters, and in my recent article on psycho-emotional aspects of language selection/use in bilingual settings ( De Houwer, A., 2013. Harmonious bilingual development: young families' well-being in language contact situations. *International Journal of Bilingualism*, first published online June 11, 2013, doi:10.1177/1367006913489202). May I stress that according to the UN Charter on Children's Rights children have a right to their parents' culture and language - so recommendations that they are to be blocked from access to these are morally not acceptable. Hope this helps. --Annick On Wednesday, November 27, 2013 7:51:07 AM UTC+1, Esther wrote: > > Wow this is great Eileen, thank you very much! > I'll try to put this all together and send it to Brian if it's dense > enough for the CHILDES website. > Best, > Aliyah > Le 27 nov. 2013 à 03:16, Eileen Graf a écrit : > > Dear Aliyah, > > You might find these helpful: > > [1] Place, Silvia & Hoff, Erika (2011).

We invite contributions that apply methods from computational linguistics to problems in the cognitive modeling of any and all natural language abilities. The 2014 workshop follows in the tradition of earlier CMCL meetings at ACL 2010, ACL 2011, NAACL-HLT 2012, ACL 2013. Scope and Topics ------------------------ The workshop invites a broad spectrum of work in the cognitive science of language, at all levels of analysis from sounds to discourse and on both learning and processing. Topics include, but are not limited to: - incremental parsers for diverse grammar formalisms - derivations of quantitative measures of comprehension difficulty, or predictions regarding generalization in language learning - stochastic models of factors encouraging one production or interpretation over its competitors - models of semantic/pragmatic interpretation, including psychologically realistic notions of word meaning, phrase meaning, composition, and pragmatic inference - models and empirical analysis of the relationship between mechanistic psycholinguistic principles and pragmatic or semantic adaptation - models of human language acquisition and/or adaptation in a changing linguistic environment - models of linguistic information propagation and language change in communication networks - models of lexical acquisition, including phonology, morphology, and semantics - psychologically motivated models of grammar induction or semantic learning Submissions are especially welcomed that combine computational modeling work with empirical data (e.g., corpora or experiments) to test theoretical questions about the nature of human language acquisition, comprehension, and/or production. Submissions ----------------- This call solicits full papers reporting original and unpublished research that combines cognitive modeling and computational linguistics. Accepted papers are expected to be presented at the workshop and will be published in the workshop proceedings. They should emphasize obtained results rather than intended work, and should indicate clearly the state of completion of the reported results. A paper accepted for presentation at the workshop must not be presented or have been presented at any other meeting with publicly available proceedings. If essentially identical papers are submitted to other conferences or workshops as well, this fact must be indicated at submission time. No submission should be longer than necessary, up to a maximum 8 pages plus two additional pages containing references. To facilitate double-blind reviewing, submitted manuscripts should not include any identifying information about the authors. Submissions must be formatted using ACL 2014 style files available at http://www.cs.jhu.edu/ACL2014/CallforPapers.htm Contributions should be submitted in PDF via the submission site: https://www.softconf.com/acl2014/CMCL/ The submission deadline is 11:59PM Pacific Time on March 15, 2014. Best Student Paper -------------------------- The best paper whose first author is a student will receive the Best Student Paper award. Publication All accepted CMCL papers will be published in the workshop proceedings as is customary at ACL conferences. Important Dates --------------------- Submission deadline: 15 March 2014 Notification of acceptance: 11 April 2014 Camera-ready versions due: 28 April 2014 Workshop: June 26, 2014 Workshop Chairs ----------------------- Vera Demberg Multimodal Computing and Interaction Cluster of Excellence, Saarland University, Germany Tim O?Donnell Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA Program Committee --------------------------- Afra Alishahi, Tilburg University Klinton Bicknell, University of Rochester Alexander Clark, King's College London Jennifer Culbertson, George Mason Afsaneh Fazly, University of Toronto Bob Frank, Yale Stefan Frank, Radboud University Nijmegen Stella Frank, University of Edinburgh John T.

Here are a few words about what it is: How well have classic ideas on whole-word phonology stood the test of time? Waterson claimed that each child has a system of their own; Ferguson and Farwell emphasised the relative accuracy of first words; Menn noted the occurrence of regression and the emergence of phonological systematicity. This volume brings together classic texts such as these with current data-rich studies of British and American English, Arabic, Brazilian Portuguese, Finnish, French, Japanese, Polish and Spanish. This combination of classic and contemporary work from the last 30 years presents the reader with cutting-edge perspectives on child language by linking historical approaches with current ideas such as exemplar theory and usage-based phonology and contrasting state-of-the-art perspectives from developmental psychology and linguistics. This is a valuable resource for cognitive scientists, developmentalists, linguists, psychologists, speech scientists and therapists interested in understanding how children begin to use language without the benefit of language-specific innate knowledge. -marilyn vihman & tamar keren-portnoy (editors) Marilyn M.

We are thinking ahead to work on the Words and Sentences version. We have already collected some data which colleagues kindly contributed for the appropriate age group for Words and Sentences but we are hoping that some people may have more data they'd be able to share with us. If you have any VOCABULARY data that you don't think we have, collected in the UK using a version of the CDI (whether that was a version adapted for the UK or not), on toddlers aged 16 to about 39 months, we'd love to be able to use your data. It needs to be at the word level. It doesn't need to have the questions about whether the child "understands" a word, just about whether the child "says" a word (but, for this purpose, it's OK if it does have the "understands" question). We'd also love to hear from anyone who has data they may be able to share on the grammar/phrases/question section of a CDI for this age range, again collected in the UK. If you only used a few grammar questions, we'd still love to look at your data - whether or not you used a CDI that was adapted for the UK. If you have data you'd like to share, we can talk about how this would work (we have made a variety of arrangements for sharing W&G age-range data).

Re your CI speak/sign question, there is an excellent article in press by Bencie Woll and colleagues that shows it is imperative that children receive symbolic input from very early on, regardless of whether it is gestural or oral (for Deaf children): *Lyness, C.R., Woll, B., Campbell, R., & Vardin, V. (in press). How does visual language affect crossmodal plasticity and cochlear implant success? Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews (2013), http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.neubiorev.2013.08.011* Re your question regarding home language use by parents in immigration situations: allow me to refer you to extensive discussion in Chapter 4 of De Houwer, A., 2009. Bilingual First Language Acquisition, Bristol: Multilingual Matters, and in my recent article on psycho-emotional aspects of language selection/use in bilingual settings ( De Houwer, A., 2013. Harmonious bilingual development: young families' well-being in language contact situations. *International Journal of Bilingualism*, first published online June 11, 2013, doi:10.1177/1367006913489202). May I stress that according to the UN Charter on Children's Rights children have a right to their parents' culture and language - so recommendations that they are to be blocked from access to these are morally not acceptable. Hope this helps. --Annick On Wednesday, November 27, 2013 7:51:07 AM UTC+1, Esther wrote: > > Wow this is great Eileen, thank you very much! > I'll try to put this all together and send it to Brian if it's dense > enough for the CHILDES website. > Best, > Aliyah > Le 27 nov. 2013 ? 03:16, Eileen Graf a ?crit : > > Dear Aliyah, > > You might find these helpful: > > [1] Place, Silvia & Hoff, Erika (2011).
