Meeting Description:

HPSG is a well-developed, precisely formalized theory of grammar whose
architecture is based on the notion of constraint satisfaction. Linguistic
objects are modeled as feature structures organized via a system of types and
constraint inheritance, drawing key insights from research in object-oriented
paradigms. The HPSG community values explicit, large-scale grammar development
and explores psycholinguistic models, as well as the development of efficient
computational systems for processing natural languages using HPSG grammars.

The 27th International Conference on Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar will
be held on August 17 – 19, 2020 at the University of Leuven, Belgium.
Abstracts are invited that address linguistic, foundational, or computational
issues relating to or in the spirit of the framework of Head-driven Phrase
Structure Grammar and/or Sign-Based Construction Grammar.

Conference Format:
The HPSG 2020 conference will consist of a two-day main conference, preceded
by a half-day workshop on Treebanking.
 
Invited Speakers for the main conference:
Laura Michaelis, University of Colorado Boulder
Gert Webelhuth, Goethe University Frankfurt
 
Keynote speaker for the workshop on Treebanking:
Gosse Bouma, University of Groningen

Venue:
The HPSG 2020 Conference will take place at the Faculty of Arts (Erasmushuis)
at the KU Leuven, Belgium.


Final Call for Papers: 
 
Submission Deadline Extended: March 8, 2020

Two types of submissions are admitted both for the main conference and the
workshop:
  *   Long papers (4-page abstract + 1 page data, figures & references; 30
minute presentation + 10 minute discussion)

minute presentation + 5 minute discussion)
Please note that abstracts submitted for the ''long paper'' track can be
accepted as ''short papers'' (and vice versa). Only ''long papers'' will
appear in the proceedings.
