LACL 2012

Logical Aspects of Computational Linguistics

July 2-4, 2012

LINA, Nantes, France

http://lacl.gforge.inria.fr/lacl-2012


PRESENTATION

LACL'2012 is the 7th edition of a series of international conferences on
logical and formal methods in computational linguistics. This conference
addresses the use of type theoretic, proof theoretic and model theoretic
methods for describing natural language syntax and semantics, as well as
the implementation of natural language processing software relying on
such models. It will be held at the LINA, Nantes, France.

Scope:

Computer scientists, linguists, mathematicians and philosophers are
invited to present their work on the use of logical methods in
computational linguistics and natural language processing, in natural
language analysis, generation or acquisition.

Topics of either theoretical or applied interest include, but are not
limited to:

    * logical foundation of syntactic formalisms
          o categorial grammars
          o minimalist grammars
          o dependency grammars
          o tree adjoining grammars
          o model theoretic syntax
          o formal language theory for natural language processing
          o data-driven approaches
    * logics for semantics of lexical items, sentences, discourse and
      dialog
          o discourse theories
          o Montague semantics
          o compositionality
          o dynamic logics
          o game semantics
          o situation semantics
          o generative lexicon
	  o categorical semantics
    * applications of these models to natural language processing
          o software for natural language analysis
          o software for acquiring linguistic resources
          o software for natural language generation
          o software for information extraction
	  o inference tasks
          o evaluation
          o scalability
