Linguistic Field(s): Computational Linguistics 

Call Deadline: 06-Feb-2011 

Meeting Description:

LACL'2011 is the 6th edition of a series of international conferences on 
logical and formal methods in computational linguistics. It addresses in 
particular the use of type theoretic, proof theoretic and model theoretic 
methods for describing natural language syntax and semantics, as well as 
the implementation of natural language processing software relying on such 
models. 

Call For Papers

Topics:

Computer scientists, linguists, mathematicians and philosophers are invited 
to present their work on the use of logical methods in computational 
linguistics and natural language processing, in natural language analysis, 
generation or acquisition.

logical foundation of syntactic formalisms
-categorial grammars
-minimalist grammars
-dependency grammars
-tree adjoining grammars
-model theoretic syntax
-formal language theory for natural language processing
-data-driven approaches

logic for semantics of lexical items, sentences, discourse and dialog
-discourse theories
-Montague semantics
-compositionality
-dynamic logics
-game semantics
-situation semantics
-generative lexicon
-categorical semantics

applications of these models to natural language processing
-software for natural language analysis
-software for acquiring linguistic resources
-software for natural language generation
-software for information extraction
-inference tasks
-evaluation
-scalability
