Location: Leuven, Belgium 
Contact Person: Anke Holler
Meeting Email: anke.holler at phil.uni-goettingen.de
Web Site: http://www.ccl.kuleuven.be/HPSG2020/

Subject Language(s): English (eng)

Call Deadline: 29-Feb-2020 

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.

Structure Grammar and/or Sign-Based Construction Grammar.
 
Submissions: 
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)
  *   Short papers (2-page abstract + 1 page data, figures & references; 15
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.

All abstracts (written in English) should be submitted in PDF format via:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=hpsg-27-leuven-2020 .

All abstracts will be reviewed anonymously by at least two reviewers. The
submissions should not include the authors' names, and authors are asked to
avoid self-references. Please direct any questions to the Program Committee
Chair (anke.holler at phil.uni-goettingen.de).

A call for contributions to the proceedings will be issued after the
Conference. Proceedings of previous conferences are available at:
http://csli-publications.stanford.edu/HPSG/ .
