LOGICAL ASPECTS OF COMPUTATIONAL LINGUISTICS
=============================================================================
INRIA-Lorraine and CRIN-C.N.R.S. , Nancy , 23-25 september 1996
Call for Papers
General topic:
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
There has been a growing interest in the use of logic in natural language
processing, both for syntactical and semantical models. Some recent examples
include logical deduction as a basis for parsing/generation, the use of
non-commutative linear logic as a syntactical model, the relation between
categorial grammars, CFG and TAG, natural language interfaces for automatic
theorem proving, unification for anaphora resolution, and linear logic
semantics for LFG.
This workshop is aimed at bringing together linguists, logicians, philosophers
and computer scientists in order to present the latest results in these areas
and to discuss the different approaches.
Topics (not exclusive):
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Proof-theoretical aspects of the syntactical and semantical models of natural
languages.
The use of classical and non-classical logics in computational linguistics.
Formal grammars for natural languages and their parsing: categorial grammars,
TAGs, LFGs etc.
Relations between models.

Subject: Optimality Theory
The editors of Kansas Working Papers in Linguistics will publish a special
volume in 1996. We welcome submissions concerning Optimality Theory. Since
KWPL is a working paper, publication in it does not preclude later
publication elsewhere.
Submissions should be in good readable form (maximum 25 pages
double-spaced), not necessarily final copy for publication. Student papers
are encouraged.
Please send papers or enquiries to: Editors, KWPL
Linguistics Dept.
427 Blake Hall
University of Kansas
