NOTE: EARLY REGISTRATION BY MAY 23	

The 2nd Workshop on Cognitive Modeling and Computational Linguistics
(CMCL)

A workshop to be held

June 23, 2011
0850-1730hrs

at the Association for Computational Linguistics meeting
in Portland, Oregon

            http://www.psy.cmu.edu/~cmcl/


CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

This workshop provides a venue for work in computational
psycholinguistics.  ACL Lifetime Achievement Award recipient Martin
Kay described this topic as "build[ing] models of language that
reflect in some interesting way, on the ways in which people use
language." Following several successful related workshops, we have
selected from a large number of submissions several outstanding
contributions that apply methods from computational linguistics to
problems in the cognitive modeling of any and all natural language
abilities.


Scope and Topics

The workshop presents a broad spectrum of work in the cognitive
science of language, at all levels of analysis from sounds to
discourse.  It emphasizes precise, computational and cognitively valid
and empirically verified models.  This year's topics include

* cognitively plausible parsers, syntactic and morphological
* segmentation,
* human language acquisition, including grammar induction,
* models of adaptation and coordination in language production and
  comprehension in dialogue,
* referring expression interpretation,
* reading,
* lexical semantics, and 
* linguistic variants of clinical relevance.


Best Student Paper

The best paper whose first author is a student will receive the Best
Student Paper award, sponsored by the Cognitive Science Society.  The
award consists of USD 250 and a one-year membership to the Cognitive
Science Society.
