  	            Preliminary Call for Participation

				SEMPRO-2001:
            COGNITIVELY PLAUSIBLE MODELS OF SEMANTIC PROCESSING

	   (A workshop in conjunction with the Annual Meeting of the
		     Cognitive Science Society)

                    July 31st, University of Edinburgh

                   http://www.hcrc.ed.ac.uk/~sempro/


The goal of this workshop is to be a forum and a meeting point for researchers
developing models of semantic / pragmatic processing (computational and
non-computational) motivated by psychological evidence or corpus studies, with
a focus on human language processing.  This year's workshop will
feature papers on:

- incrementality and underspecification in semantic processing
- lexical access and disambiguation
- anaphora resolution
- scope assignment

We would especially like to encourage the exchange of results between
psychological experimentation, computational modelling, and
corpus-based work.

INVITED SPEAKERS: Julie Sedivy (Brown), Tony Sanford (Glasgow).

ACCEPTED PAPERS:

the workshop will include both presentations and a poster session. A
preliminary list of accepted papers is available at

REGISTRATION:

The registration fee will be £40 for regular participants, £20 for
students. The fee covers lunch.

ACCOMODATION:

Cognitive Science conference,

We strongly encourage the participants to book early - accomodation in
Edinburgh in that period is hard to find!
