Aims and Scope
FG provides a forum for the presentation of new and original research on formal
grammar, mathematical linguistics and the application of formal and mathematical
methods to the study of natural language. Themes of interest include, but are
not limited to,  
- formal and computational phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics and pragmatics; 
- model-theoretic and proof-theoretic methods in linguistics;
- logical aspects of linguistic structure;
- constraint-based and resource-sensitive approaches to grammar;
- learnability of formal grammar;
- integration of stochastic and symbolic models of grammar;
- foundational, methodological and architectural issues in grammar;
- mathematical foundations of statistical approaches to linguistic analysis.

Previous conferences in this series have welcomed papers from a wide variety of
frameworks.

Proceedings
Submissions will be reviewed anonymously by at least three reviewers. Accepted
papers will be published after the conference as volume number 5591 in the
Springer series Lecture Notes in Computer Science (under the FoLLI LNAI subline).

Submission Details
We invite electronic submissions of original, unpublished 30-minute papers
(including questions, comments, and discussion). Papers should report original
work which was not presented in other conferences. However, simultaneous
submission is allowed, provided that the authors indicate other conference to
which the work was submitted on the paper submission form. Note that accepted
papers can only be presented in one of the venues.

Authors are invited to submit anonymous papers presenting original and
unpublished research. Papers should not exceed 16 pages and should be formatted
according to the usual LNCS article style. Submissions. The needed style files
are available at

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such 
can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c) Non 
Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations can be 
offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers 
only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any 
gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your contacting 
your human resources department and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills 
in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative procedure 
that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. 
Please take a moment to check if your company operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
