4th Quantitative Investigations in Theoretical Linguistics in Berlin (QITL4)

 

*Registration for the conference is now open*

 

Please check the conference website for details on the program (see link
above).

 

Quantitative models of linguistic phenomena have been increasingly informing
linguistic theory, testing, confirming and falsifying linguists’ hypotheses,
and translating their insights into language based applications. Despite
this, the divide between theoretical linguistics and empirical research
remains substantial, with many theories being expressed in terms that are
not conducive to data-based testing, and conversely, the appearance of a
variety of data-based studies and applications with no adequate theory to
frame and explain their results.

 

Quantitative Investigations in Theoretical Linguistics (QITL) offers a forum
for researchers who aim to bridge this gap from any linguistic discipline or
methodology, and in particular, but not limited to:

 

-        Quantitative corpus based studies

-        Psycholinguistics

-        Computational linguistics / NLP

-        Historical linguistics

-        Lexicography

-        Second language acquisition / applied linguistics

-        First language acquisition

 

The fourth conference (QITL4) is set to take place at Humboldt University in
Berlin, between 28-31 March 2011. 

 

We welcome all participants and look forward to seeing you in Berlin,

 

The Organizing Committee,

Anke Lüdeling and Amir Zeldes
