SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS
International AAI Workshop
"Interfaces prosodiques"
"Prosodic Interfaces"
NANTES (France)
27-28-29 March 2003
- Presentation
The AAI team of the University of Nantes is calling for papers for its
international workshop. Many of you participated in our Workshops in
1997, 1999 and 2002. We hope that you will honour us this year too.
Our proposal this year is to investigate the field of speech prosody,
which is acquiring a central dimension in many domains. This
centrality explains our choice of the term 'interfaces', which
underlines the articulation of prosody with other research areas. How
for instance can we link prosody and syntax, pragmatics, the study of
gestures? What kinds of analytic grids, phonetical or phonological,
can we apply to prosodic phenomena? What can we learn from the
pathology and acquisition of prosody? What is the amplitude of
prosodic variation between the languages of the world, or between the
dialects of a given language? How can bilingualism and second language
acquisition help us to understand the role of prosody in language?
All these questions, and hopefully many others, will be addressed in
March 2003 in Nantes.
- Topics
The workshop will be organized around the following topics:
- prosody and discourse : semantics, pragmatics, enunciation
- prosody and syntax
- prosody and acquisition / pathology
- phonetic description / phonological interpretation
- prosody and gestures
- prosodic typology
- prosody and bilingualism
- prosody and speech technology
- prosody, attitudes and emotions
- Organisation
This workshop is organised by the research team AAI (Acoustics,
Acquisition and Interpretation JE2220) of the University of Nantes,
and coordinated by Amina Mettouchi and Gabrielle Ferra.

The Fourth International and Interdisciplinary Conference on Modeling
and Using Context (CONTEXT'03), will provide a high-quality forum for
discussions about context among researchers active in artificial
intelligence and other areas of computer science, cognitive science,
linguistics, the organizational sciences, philosophy, and psychology.
Context affects a wide range of activities in humans and animals as
well as in artificial agents and other computer programs. The
importance of context is widely acknowledged, and "context" has become
an area of study in its own right, as evidenced by the numerous
workshops, symposia, seminars, and conferences held recently. CONTEXT,
the oldest conference series focusing on context, is unique due to its
strong emphasis on interdisciplinary research. Previous CONTEXT
conferences have been held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (CONTEXT'97),
Trento, Italy (CONTEXT'99), and Dundee, Scotland (CONTEXT'01). Each of
these brought together researchers in many disparate fields to discuss
and report on research on context-related topics.
The proceedings of CONTEXT'03 will be published in a Lecture Notes
series (http://www.springer.de/comp/lnai) of Springer-Verlag, as were
those of the previous CONTEXT conferences.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
To guide potential submissions, a representative sampling of topics of
interest for CONTEXT'03 are as follows (in alphabetical order). This
is not an exhaustive list, and other contributions are welcome,
although all submissions must have a focus on context.
Analogy and case-based reasoning
Cognitive Modeling
Context Issues in Databases
Contextual effects on language
understanding and production
Decision Support and Expert Systems
Formal Theories of Context
Human-Computer Interaction
Intelligent Tutoring Systems
Interagent Communication
Knowledge Representation
Multiagent Systems
Neuroscience and context
Philosophical Foundations

decision-making, and categorization
Distributed Information Systems
Heterogeneous Information Integration
Information Management
Intelligent/Semantic Web Systems
Knowledge Engineering and Management
Machine Learning
Natural Language Processing
Organizational Theory and Design
SUBMISSION OF PAPERS
Since CONTEXT'03 will be an interdisciplinary forum, all submissions,
in addition to being evaluated for their technical merit, will be
evaluated for their accessibility to an interdisciplinary
audience. Works that transcend disciplinary boundaries are especially
encouraged. Papers will be accepted either for oral presentation or
for presentation at a poster session.
Each submission will be evaluated by three referees. Complete
formatting requirements and detailed instructions for authors can be
found on the conference Web page. Note that papers cannot be longer
than 14 pages. Papers must be submitted electronically--no hardcopy
submissions will be accepted without prior approval from the Program
Co-Chairs well in advance of the submission deadline. LaTeX and Word
templates are available at the conference Web page. Papers must be in
PDF format. See the conference Web page for instructions on
converting to this format from Word, LaTeX, etc.
Submitted papers should be received by the Program Co-Chairs no later
than January 6, 2003. The conference Web page contains instructions
for submitting papers electronically.
