      LOGICAL   ASPECTS   OF   COMPUTATIONAL   LINGUISTICS
- ---------------------------------------------------------------

INRIA-Lorraine & CRIN-C.N.R.S.  -- NANCY --  22-24 SEPTEMBER 1997

GENERAL TOPIC: The first edition of the  LACL  conference,  which
was  held  in  Nancy in September 1996, was very successful. This
fact proves that there is a growing interest in the use of  logic
in natural language processing, both for syntactical and semanti=AD
cal models. LACL'97 wants to  continue  to  bring  together  lin=AD
guists,  logicians,  philosophers  and computer scientists around
this theme in order to present the latest results and to  discuss
the different approaches.

TOPICS (not exclusive):
 - Proof-theoretical  aspects of  the syntactical  and semantical
   models of natural languages.
 - Automatic proof-search techniques for syntactical analysis and
   generation.
 - Grammars based on non-commutative linear logics.
 - Relations  between  categorial grammars, context-free grammars
   and TAGs.
 - Natural language interfaces for automatic provers.

INVITED SPEAKERS:
      Denis Bouchard (Universite du Quebec a Montreal)
      Mark Johnson (Brown University, Providence)
      Yves Lafont (C.N.R.S., Marseille)
      Joachim Lambek (McGill University, Montreal)

SUBMISSIONS: Authors are  invited to  submit  before  May 20th  a
4-page abstract (including the bibliography) of a paper which has
not been submitted elsewhere. This abstract must be sent  to  the
chairman  of  the  program  commitee  by  electronic mail (LaTeX,
PostScript, dvi or ascii format), or by surface mail. The notifi=AD
cations  of acceptance will be sent before May 31. The collection
of the selected abstracts will be available  at  the  conference.
After  the  conference,  the authors are invited to submit a full
paper (up to 20 pages) for publication. The final papers for  the
previous  conference  are  to  appear  in a special volume of the
Springer-Verlag series of Lecture Notes in Computer Science.
