Call Deadline: 15-Feb-2018 

Meeting Description:

The BDBT symposium brings together linguists using different theoretical
approaches to discuss the use of 'Big Data' to investigate fundamental
questions in Phonetics, Phonology, Morphology, Syntax, Semantics,
Psycholinguistics, Sociolinguistics, or Historical Linguistics. 'Big data' is
understood to be defined differently across linguistic subfields, and
includes, but is not limited to: typological analysis, corpus research,
computational modeling, meta-analysis, and a range of quantitative or
qualitative experimental methods.


Call for Papers:

Abstracts are invited for 20-minute presentations (followed by 10 minutes of
discussion) and posters on research that uses 'big data' to investigate
fundamental questions in Phonetics, Phonology, Morphology, Syntax, Semantics,
Psycholinguistics, Sociolinguistics, or Historical Linguistics. 'Big data' is
understood to be defined differently across linguistic subfields, and
includes, but is not limited to: typological analysis, corpus research,
computational modeling, meta-analysis, and a range of quantitative or
qualitative experimental methods.

Submission Guide:

All papers and posters must be anonymous, and submission is limited to one
single-authored and one co-authored abstract per author, or two co-authored
abstracts. Abstracts must not exceed 1 page in length, with 2.5 cm margins on
all sides, single spacing, and 12pt font. This excludes examples, figures, and
references, which should appear on a second page

Submit abstracts by 15 February, 2018, to:
