Call Deadline: 31-Mar-2015 

Meeting Description:

QMM1 will provide a forum for research on quantitative approaches to the description and analysis of morphological phenomena in natural language. The term 'morphology' is construed broadly, covering all types of form variation. The class of quantitative approaches is equally broad, including (but not limited to):

- Information-theoretic approaches, discriminative and Bayesian learning models,
- Simulation-based approaches, connectionist models, vector-based semantic models, etc.

The meeting will consist of a two-day conference on quantitative approaches to morphology, followed by three days of tutorials devoted to topics, methods and tools relevant to current quantitative models.

A. Conference

11 - 12 July 2015

Abstracts are solicited in the following categories:

1. Talk (15 minutes plus 5 minutes for discussion),
2. Poster (for presentation in a poster session),
3. Talk/Poster: For consideration as talk or poster.

Anonymous abstracts in PDF format, consisting of at most two pages of content (excluding references) should be submitted via the EasyChair conference link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=qmm1

B. Tutorials

13 - 15 July 2015

Applications for the tutorial sessions are also open.

The tutorials are designed primarily to provide an opportunity for students, postdocs and early career researchers to familiarize themselves and, hopefully, to engage with current quantitative research paradigms.

Interested applicants should send a current CV and description of research interests to: qmm1 at iqma.xyz

C. Important Dates

- Submission Deadlines: 31 March 2015
- Notification of Acceptance: 30 April 2015
