Meeting Description:

FG-2018 is the 23rd conference on Formal Grammar, to be held in conjunction
with the European Summer School in Logic, Language and Information which, in
2018, will take place in Sofia, Bulgaria.

FG provides a forum for the presentation of new and original research on
formal grammar, mathematical linguistics and the application of formal and
mathematical methods to the study of natural language. Themes of interest
include, but are not limited to,

- formal and computational phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics and
pragmatics;
- model-theoretic and proof-theoretic methods in linguistics;
- logical aspects of linguistic structure;
- constraint-based and resource-sensitive approaches to grammar;
- learnability of formal grammar;
- integration of stochastic and symbolic models of grammar;
- foundational, methodological and architectural issues in grammar and
linguistics;
- mathematical foundations of statistical approaches to linguistic analysis.

Previous Formal Grammar meetings were held in Barcelona (1995), Prague (1996),
Aix-en-Provence (1997), Saarbrücken (1998), Utrecht (1999), Helsinki (2001),
Trento (2002), Vienna (2003), Nancy (2004), Edinburgh (2005), Malaga (2006),
Dublin (2007), Hamburg (2008), Bordeaux (2009), Copenhagen (2010), Ljubljana
(2011), Opole (2012), Düsseldorf (2013), Tübingen (2014), Barcelona (2015),
Bozen-Bolzano (2016), and Toulouse (2017).


Call for Papers:

Aims and Scope:

FG provides a forum for the presentation of new and original research on
formal grammar, mathematical linguistics and the application of formal and
mathematical methods to the study of natural language.  

Previous conferences in this series have welcomed papers from a wide variety
of frameworks.

Submission Details:

We invite electronic submissions of original, 16-page papers (including
references and possible technical appendices). Authors are encouraged to use
the Springer-Verlag LNCS style:

The submission deadline is March 9, 2018. Papers must be anonymous and
submitted electronically at EasyChair:
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fg20180.

Papers should report original work which was not presented in other
conferences. However, simultaneous submission is allowed, provided that the
authors indicate other conferences to which the work was submitted in a
footnote. Note that accepted papers can only be presented in one of the
venues.

Submissions will be reviewed anonymously by at least three reviewers. 
Accepted papers will be published as a volume in the Springer LNCS series,
under the FoLLI subline.
