Meeting Description:

MAPLL × TCP × TL × TALK (MT3) 2018 is to be held at Keio University from July
28 (Sat) to July 29 (Sun), 2018. MT3 2018 is jointly organized by Mental
Architecture for Processing and Learning of Language (MAPLL), Tokyo Conference
on Psycholinguistics (TCP), the technical group of thought and language of the
Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers (TL), and
Theoretical Linguistics at Keio (TALK).

The MAPLL workshop was first launched in early 2000 as a forum intended to
foster research on human sentence processing and related areas. It has been an
important event for researchers interested in psycholinguistics and the
cognitive neuroscience of language. It was held at Hiroshima University, the
University of Tokyo, Yamagata University, Kwansei Gakuin University, Tokyo
Metropolitan University, Kyushu University, Tsuda College,  Waseda University
and The National Institute for Japanese Language and Linguistics.

Invited Speakers:

This year’s MT3 invites the following distinguished speakers:

Julien Musolino (Rutgers University)

Jennifer Culbertson (University of Edinburgh)
http://jennifer-culbertson.github.io


Call for Papers:

MT3 invites submissions for paper (oral) or poster presentations in any
aspects of empirical research on human language. Studies from a wide range of
perspectives will be considered; including, but not exclusive to:

- Research conducting behavioral or neural experiments
- Research constructing theoretical or computational models
- Research inquiring into biological and/or evolutional foundations of
learning or processing of language by native or non-native speakers
- Following the tradition of TCP, those focusing on “Plato’s Problem”
concerning language acquisition (How can we gain a rich linguistic system
given our fragmentary and impoverished experience?) are especially welcome.

MT3 2018 uses the EasyChair online abstract submission system.

Submission Deadline (Extended!): April 10, 2018 (23:59 Japan Standard Time)

Abstracts should be submitted to:

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mapllttt2018

Anonymous abstracts should be submitted in letter or A4 format, with 1-inch or
2.5-cm margins on all sides, and in no smaller than 12 point font. The
abstract may be no longer than one page including additional figures, tables,
other graphics and/or references. Abstracts must be written in English.

At the top of the abstract, please specify:

The title of your paper
Your preference for presentation type (oral or poster).
Paper (oral) presentations are scheduled to be 20 minutes, followed by 10
minutes of discussion.
Since the number of slots for oral presentations is limited, some of the
abstracts will be accepted for poster presentations.

All presentations should be given in English.

Acceptance or rejection will be notified by early May 2018.

Tsutomu Sakamoto Award:

In memory of our friend and distinguished colleague professor Tsutomu
Sakamoto, the Tsutomu Sakamoto Award recognizes the paper or poster presented
at the MT3 conference that best exhibits the qualities of intellectual rigor,
creativity, and independence of thought exemplified in Professor Sakamoto’s
life and work. Any first author of a presentation, who is not yet tenured,
will be eligible for consideration. Specify whether you are eligible for the
candidate or not at the submission page of EasyChair.
