?Dear Sadegh and Amin,
The project is now finished and it'll be published soon. But I don't know
if it's published completely or partially and when exactly it is published.
Regards,

Closing date: 13 January 2013
The Centre for Language Studies at Radboud University Nijmegen, the Netherlands, in cooperation with ESAT-PSI Centre for Speech and Image Processing, Leuven University, Belgium, is seeking candidates for a PhD project that upon successful completion will result in a joint doctorate degree awarded by the two universities.
You will work on the intersecting fields of latent variable models (a focus of the ESAT-PSI group in Leuven) and rich language models (investigated at CLS in Nijmegen). The first research subgoal is to investigate whether phrases and skipgrams could be better units in latent variable models than unigrams, the current standard. The second subgoal is to investigate whether richer latent variable models will be better adaptable to domains, in which phrases (multi-word units) and skipgrams may play an important role.
We offer a rich environment of two vibrant well-connected research labs in neighboring countries. Your main affiliation will be with Radboud University Nijmegen, but you will be a member of both labs and will work at Leuven University for at least 6 months during your project. We offer an excellent computer infrastructure, data, expertise, and colleagues working in overlapping areas in both labs.

Hi all,
I've just uploaded a new video with an overview of social interaction,
sciences studying it, its benefits, and an example of how InfoFramework
composes a population of ECAs simulating social interaction (
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pe4u94ar89I).
Best Alexander

Dear Alexander,
are you aware of the works of interactional linguists and of conversation
analists? Interaction is rarely dyadic, as it appears from your video. Even
contexts which are supposed to be strictly dyadic. like courts of justice,
where the interaction is dictated by procedural law (at least in Italy),
many overlapping and 'other stuff' typical of ordinary interactions occur.
I understand that it is very simple to create a model from dyadic
interactions, but if the aim is the creation of a multi-agent software, you
might want to take into account the works of interactional linguists and
conversation analysts.
Kind regards,
Eleonora Sciubba
