Final CALL FOR PAPERS
Deadline extended!!
=======================

PACLING2009
Conference of the Pacific Association for Computational Linguistics

September 1-4, 2009
Hokkaido University, Sapporo, Japan
http://sig.media.eng.hokudai.ac.jp/pacling2009/

=====
SCOPE
=====
  PACLING will be a low-profile, high-quality, workshop-oriented
meeting whose aim is to promote friendly scientific relations among
Pacific Rim countries, with emphasis on interdisciplinary scientific
exchange demonstrating openness towards original, fresh, and/or useful
research including those which might sometimes fall outside current
dominant "school of thought", and technological transfer within Pacific
region. The conference is smaller than ACL, COLING, or IJCNLP, but opens
the door to the Global as well as the Pacific.

======
TOPICS
======
  Substantial, original, and unpublished research is welcome on any
topics in computational linguistics, including, but not limited to, the
following:

* Phonology and Phonetics
* Morphology and Morphological Analysis
* Syntax and Syntactic Analysis
* Semantics and Semantic Analysis
* Pragmatics and Discourse Analysis
* Spoken Language and Dialogue
* Corpora and Corpus-based Language Processing
* Text and Message Understanding
* Text and Message Generation
* Machine Translation
* Text Summarization
* Information Extraction and Text Mining
* Information Retrieval and Question-Answering
* Language Learning
* Natural Language Interfaces
* Electronic Dictionaries, Thesauri and Ontology
* Semantic Web
* Semantic Computation

In addition to these topics on general computational linguistics,
Pacling2009 will also have a workshop to discuss the challenging theme
below:

    Language and Human Mind.

This theme covers research areas of modeling a human mind in terms of
natural, efficient and sympathetic communication between humans and
computers, i.e. user-model-based communication systems, emotional and
affective expressions comprehension, understanding of other person's
mind, etc.


Moreover, two invited speakers will also give the following speeches:

 "Language and Thought - the Case of Japanese"
Hideyuki Nakashima (President, Future University Hakodate),

"Mapping Language to Knowledge"
Junichi Tsujii (University of Tokyo & University of Manchester).
