Meeting Description:

Fifth International Conference on Dependency Linguistics (Depling 2019)

Paris, August 27-28, 2019

https://syntaxfest.github.io/syntaxfest19/

This year, Depling will be part of the SyntaxFest, the co-location of four
conferences around empirical syntax:
- Quasy : The Workshop on Quantitative Syntax (August 26)
https://quasy-2019.webnode.com/
- Depling : The Conference on Dependency Linguistics (August 27-28)
http://depling.org/depling2019/
- TLT : The 18th International Workshop on Treebanks and Linguistic Theories
(August 28-29)
https://syntaxfest.github.io/syntaxfest19/tlt2019/tlt2019.html
- UDW : The Universal Dependencies Workshop (August 29-30)
http://universaldependencies.org/udw19/

Conference Aims
Depling is a bi-annual conference dedicated to dependency-based approaches in
linguistics and natural language processing. Dependencies, directed labeled
graph structures representing hierarchical relations between morphemes, words
or semantic units, have now become the standard representation of syntactic
resources and NLP technologies. Depling has become the central event for
people discussing the linguistic significance of these structures, their
theoretical and formal foundations, their processing, and their use in NLP
tools.

Conference Topics

Topics include but are not limited to:

- The use of dependency trees in syntactic analysis, parsing, and generation;

- Corpus annotation and development of dependency-based treebanks and other
linguistic resources of written and spoken texts;

- Cross-lingual dependency parser evaluation, with particular emphasis on
intrinsic evaluation metrics;

- The use of semantic, valency-based or predicate-argument graph structures;

- The elaboration of formal lexicons for dependency-based syntax and
semantics, including descriptions of collocations and paradigmatic relations;

- Dependency-like structures beyond the sentence, for example, to model
discourse phenomena;

- Description and formalization of semantic and pragmatic phenomena related to
information structure;

- History, epistemology, and psycholinguistic relevance of dependency grammar;

- Dependency grammar and its relation to other formalisms.

- Dependency, linguistic universals, and typology.
