First Quantitative Morphology Meeting 
Short Title: QMM1 

Date: 11-Jul-2015 - 15-Jul-2015 
Location: Belgrade, Serbia 
Contact: Jim Blevins 
Contact Email: qmm1 at iqma.xyz 
Meeting URL: http://iqma.xyz/cfp.html 

Linguistic Field(s): Cognitive Science; Computational Linguistics; Language Acquisition; Morphology; Text/Corpus Linguistics 

Meeting Description: 

QMM1 will provide a forum for research on quantitative approaches to the description and analysis of morphological phenomena in natural language. The term 'morphology' is construed broadly, covering all types of form variation. The class of quantitative approaches is equally broad, including (but not limited to):

- Information-theoretic approaches, discriminative and Bayesian learning models,
- Simulation-based approaches, connectionist models, vector-based semantic models, etc.

The meeting will consist of a two-day conference on quantitative approaches to morphology, followed by three days of tutorials devoted to topics, methods and tools relevant to current quantitative models. 

Program:
