Meeting Description:

RaPID 2018: ''Resources and ProcessIng of linguistic, para-linguistic and
extra-linguistic Data from people with various forms of cognitive/psychiatric
impairments''

Half-day workshop at LREC2018 | Miyazaki, Japan | May 8th, 2018
Submission deadline: January 14th, 2018 (see also Important dates below)
RaPID website: https://spraakbanken.gu.se/eng/rapid-2018

The RaPID 2018 Workshop will follow up on the previous successful RaPID
Workshop @ LREC2016 (https://spraakbanken.gu.se/eng/rapid-2016)

RaPID-2018 will be an interdisciplinary forum for researchers to share
information, findings, and experience on the creation and processing of data
acquired or produced by people with various forms of mental, cognitive,
neuropsychiatric, or neurodegenerative impairments, such as aphasia, dementia,
autism, Parkinsons or schizophrenia. Particularly, the workshop focus on the
creation, annotation, description, processing and analysis of linguistic,
paralinguistic and extra-linguistic resources (e.g., spontaneous spoken
language; audio-recorded samples and transcripts; eye tracking measurements;
wearable and in-situ sensor data etc.) from individuals at various stages of
these impairments and with varying degrees of severity in order to identify,
extract, process, correlate, evaluate and disseminate various linguistic
phenotypes and measurements and thus aid the diagnosis, monitor the
progression or predict individuals at risk.


Call for Papers:

A central aim is to facilitate the study of the relationships among various
levels of linguistic, paralinguistic and extra-linguistic observations (e.g.,
acoustic measures; phonological, syntactic and semantic features; eye tracking
measurements; sensors, signs and multimodal signals). Submission of papers are
invited in all of the aforementioned areas, particularly emphasizing
multidisciplinary aspects of processing such data and the interplay between
clinical/nursing/medical sciences, language technology, computational
linguistics, natural language processing (NLP) and computer science.

Important Dates:
First call for papers: Monday, 6 November, 2017
Second call for papers: December 2017 
Submission deadline: Sunday 14 January, 2018 
Notification of acceptance: Saturday 10 February, 2018 
Early-bird registration for the main conference and workshops is the 15
February, 2018
Camera-ready papers: Sunday 10 March 2018
RaPID Workshop: Tuesday 8 May, 2018
