Subject: 6th International Conference on Dependency Linguistics
Full Title: 6th International Conference on Dependency Linguistics
Short Title: Depling 2021
Date: 21-Mar-2022 - 25-Mar-2022
Location: Sofia, Bulgaria
Contact Person: Simon Mille
Meeting Email: depling2021 at depling.org
Web Site: https://depling.org/depling2021/
Linguistic Field(s): Computational Linguistics; Historical Linguistics; Linguistic Theories; Semantics; Syntax
Call Deadline: 04-Oct-2021
Meeting Description:
Depling 2021 will be held at the SyntaxFest in Sofia, during the week of March
21 and March 25, 2022. The event will be held online, face-to-face or hybrid,
depending on the current health situation. The proceedings will be published
preemptively, in December 2021.
Depling is a bi-annual conference dedicated to dependency-based approaches in
linguistics and natural language processing. Dependencies, directed labeled
graph structures representing hierarchical relations between morphemes, words
or semantic units, have now become the standard representation of syntactic
resources and NLP technologies. Depling has become the central event for
people discussing the linguistic significance of these structures, their
theoretical and formal foundations, their processing, and their use in NLP
tools.
Call for Papers:
The submission deadline was extended by one week (Oct. 4th)!

6th International Conference on Dependency Linguistics (Depling 2021) - Final
call for papers - https://depling.org/depling2021/
Depling 2021 will be held as a hybrid conference at the SyntaxFest in Sofia,
during the week of March 21-March 25, 2022. The proceedings will be published
preemptively, in December 2021.

linguistics and natural language processing. Dependencies, directed labeled
graph structures representing hierarchical relations between morphemes, words

Selected topics of interest
----------------------------
For this edition, we would like to put a special emphasis on two topics of
interest:
- the epistemological and historical foundations of dependency linguistics
(how dependency is defined, how it emerged, how it was formalized, etc.);
- relations between theoretical dependency linguistics and NLP tasks (how,
e.g., syntactic models are framed to achieve specific tasks, how the results
of such computational tasks modify our conceptions about linguistic modeling,
etc.).
Other topics are of course welcome. Topics include but are not limited to:
- The use of dependency structures in theoretical linguistics; a.o.:
- The use of syntactic trees to model syntactic relations;
- The use of semantic, valency-based or predicate-argument graph structures;
- The use of dependency-like structures to model semantic and pragmatic
phenomena related to information structure;
- The use of dependency-like structures beyond the sentence (e.g., to model
discourse phenomena);
- The elaboration of formal lexicons for dependency-based syntax and
semantics, including descriptions of collocations and paradigmatic relations;
- The use of dependency in the field of linguistic universals, and typology.
- Historical and epistemological foundations of dependency grammar:
- The definition of the very notion of dependency;
- The development and the use of dependency-based diagrams;
- Dependency grammar and its relation to other formalisms;
- The use of dependency-like concepts in the history of grammar and
linguistics.
- The use of the dependency structures in corpus linguistics:
- Corpus annotation and development of dependency-based treebanks and other
linguistic resources of written and spoken texts;
- Recent advances in dependency-based parsing, and text generation;
- Cross-lingual dependency parser evaluation, with particular emphasis on
intrinsic evaluation metrics.
- The relation between dependency-based grammar and other fields of science,
such as, e.g., the psycholinguistic relevance of dependency grammar.
Paper submission information
----------------------------
Papers should describe original work related to dependency-based linguistics.
They should emphasize completed work rather than intended work, and should
indicate clearly the state of completion of the reported results. Submissions
will be judged on correctness, originality, technical strength, significance
and relevance to the conference, and interest to the attendees. All the
details for submission can be found on the conference page.
