Linguistic Field(s): Computational Linguistics; General Linguistics; Language Acquisition; Neurolinguistics; Psycholinguistics 

Meeting Description: 

MAPLL-TCP-TL 2019 is jointly organized by Mental Architecture for Processing
and Learning of Language (MAPLL), Tokyo Conference on Psycholinguistics (TCP),
and the technical group of thought and language of the Institute of
Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers (TL).

Memorial session for Dr. Akira Omaki:

This year, the organizing committee has decided to organize a special session
dedicated to the memory of Akira Omaki, Assistant Professor at the University
of Washington, who passed away on August 6, 2018. Because Akira was a leading
researcher in the field of L1 and L2 acquisition, as well as in language
processing, the theme of the special session is L1 and L2 acquisition. Akira
was a friend of many researchers working on psycholinguistics, including some
of the organizing committee. We sincerely wish this special session to be an
occasion where people can learn more on the field and his great contribution
to the field.

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 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.

Venue: Multi-purpose Hall, Hirao Memorial Seminar House, Konan University
(Kobe-city, Hyogo, Japan)
