AMT-BHI 2013 - ILCNT 2013 : Call for Papers
===========================================

AMT-BHI 2013 Conference
http://wi-consortium.org/conferences/amtbi13/
October 29-31, 2013, Maebashi, Gumma, Japan

Special Session
Information, Languages, Computing: New Technologies (ILCNT 2013)

Description:

The computational fundamentals of information and languages are still
widely open in many aspects and include concepts of information,
syntax, semantics, syntax-semantics interfaces, computing and
algorithms. Contemporary work on these fundamentals include important
developments related to general boundaries on information and language
in nature, and specialized restrictions depending on theories and
technological applications, in specific domains, contexts, agents,
users, etc.

Increasingly, new technologies involve handling complex and,
typically, partial information, which can be specified by mixtures of
artificial and natural languages. Intelligent developments are
predominantly interdisciplinary and range across theoretical
developments and applications. Computational approaches that are used
in them are dependent on theories of computing and algorithms.  This
special event is on computational approaches and techniques from the
perspectives of biological phenomena of information processing.  We
hope for a joint event at AMT--BHI 2013 that will contribute to
encouraging new theoretical developments and applications, in areas
such as:

- fundamentals of information processing, information exchange
- models of language interactions between humans and technological systems
- neuroscience of information processing, reasoning, and language
- new active media technology based on fundamentals of information
  exchange in nature

The topics include, without being limited to:

- new approaches to computation: models of computations in nature, for
  applications to active media technologies
- human language processing, by respecting biological nature of
  information and languages
- computational aspects of information and languages in life nature
- artificial languages and formal approaches to human language
  processing based on fundamentals of languages in nature
- new coverage of fundamentals of the concepts of algorithms, from the
  perspective of intelligent media, technological developments, and
  neuroscience of information processing
- fundamentals of algorithms: syntax, semantics, and syntax-semantics
  interrelations
- type theories for applications to language and information processing
- computational semantics of natural and artificial languages
- partiality, underspecification, and context-dependency of information
- computational syntax-semantics interface
- computational grammar of human language
- multilingual processing
- neuroscience of language
- Situation Theory and its applications (e.g., involving states,
  events situations, context, users, agents, space-time models, and
  other situated information)
- formal methods in information and language processing, medical
  sciences, neuroscience, health care
- integrated approaches involving formal, symbolic, model theoretic,
  quantitative, and other methods
- philosophical foundations of logic, language, reasoning, cognition,
  information, computation, innate language capacities, bio-inspired
  technologies
