The workshops aim to be a forum for the interdisciplinary discussion of cognitive aspects of language acquisition, processing and loss in normal and clinical conditions and to draw together practitioners of computational and cognitive communities to discuss common long term goals, promote knowledge and resource sharing and possible collaborations between the communities. It has relevance for cognitive sciences work in the fields of speech and language processing, machine learning, artificial intelligence, linguistics, psycholinguistics, psychology, etc. Papers are invited on, but not limited to, the following topics:</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span> Computational learning theory and analysis of language learning and organization</div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span> Computational models of first, second and bilingual language acquisition</div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span> Computational models of sentences and discourse processing</div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span> Computational modeling of factors that influence language acquisition and use</div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span> Physiologically realistic models linking language learning and use with specific brain regions</div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span> Computational models of the evolution of language</div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span> Resources and tools for investigating models of human language processes</div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span> Empirical and theoretical comparisons of the learning environment and its impact on language processes</div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span> Cognitively oriented neural network and Bayesian models of language processes</div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span> Computational methods for acquiring various linguistic information (related to speech, lexicon, syntax and semantics) and relevance to research on human language acquisition</div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span> Investigations and comparisons of supervised, unsupervised and weakly-supervised methods for learning</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">-------------------------------------------------------------</div><div class="">SUBMISSIONS</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">We invite three different submission modalities:</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">* Regular short papers (4 content pages + 1 page for references): Short papers should report on small experiments, focused contributions, ongoing research, negative results and/or philosophical discussion.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">* Demonstration (2 pages): Resource and System demonstration papers should describe and document the demonstrated system or resources.
