Meeting Description:

Convenors: Lucie Barque (Université Sorbonne Paris Nord & LLF) and
Richard Huyghe (University of Fribourg)

The question of how words with multiple meanings are processed and
represented in the mental lexicon has been a recurring topic of
investigation over the past thirty years. Despite significant
advances, certain aspects remain the subject of considerable debate,
and current research highlights the importance of interdisciplinary
dialogue in broadening our understanding of lexical ambiguity
(Eddington & Tokowicz 2015, Falkum & Vicente 2015, Haber & Poesio
2024, a.o.). Linguists are increasingly interested in evaluating the
psychological validity of linguistic theories on lexical ambiguity,
while psycholinguists draw on theoretical models to explore various
aspects of processing and mental representation of ambiguous words.
More recently, computational linguists have begun investigating the
extent to which representations learned by computational models encode
lexical meaning knowledge, offering new methodological perspectives
for both linguistic and psycholinguistic research. The aim of this
workshop is to foster collaboration between researchers from different
disciplines and address unresolved issues related to lexical ambiguity
through a comprehensive approach.
