Location: Ft. Lauderdale, FL, USA 
Contact Person: Andras Kornai
Meeting Email: andras at kornai.com

Linguistic Field(s): Computational Linguistics; Text/Corpus Linguistics 

Call Deadline: 15-Nov-2013 

Meeting Description:

Since the 1990s the practice of natural language processing (NLP) has
gradually shifted from logic-based symbol manipulation systems first to purely
statistical, and more recently to hybrid systems that combine structural and
statistical methods. The mathematical theory of hybrid NLP is still not fully
mature, and the special session intends to bring together mathematicians,
computer scientists, theoretical and computational linguists and AI
researchers with an interest in its foundations.

Call for Papers:

Subjects of the special session include, but are not limited to, NLP-related advances in:

- Inductive learning
- Spectral techniques
- Formal grammars 
- Commonsense reasoning
- Low-pass semantics
- Sparse models
- LSTM, deep learning
- Compressed sensing
- CVS/distributional theories

Please submit a 2-page abstract (not counting references) by November 15 at http://www.cs.uic.edu/bin/view/Isaim2014/PaperSubmission. The final copy, to be posted at the conference website, will be due Dec 15.
