Chères/Chers Collègues,

Nous avons le plaisir de vous inviter à l'atelier "Langage, cognition et
modèles informatiques" qui se tiendra à l'Ecole Normale Supérieure de la
rue d'Ulm et à l'Institut des Systèmes Complexes (ISC-PIF), à Paris, les
28 et 29 mai 2013. Cet atelier offrira l'occasion d'entendre des
orateurs d'horizons variés sur cette thématique riche, à l'interface de
différents domaines scientifiques. Les exposés seront en anglais.

Les personnes souhaitant participer sont invitées à s'inscrire si
possible avant le 1er mai à l'adresse suivante :

L'atelier est organisé avec le support du labex TransferS
(http://www.transfers.ens.fr/), avec le concours du laboratoire Lattice,
de l'Ecole Normale Supérieure, de Paris Sciences et Lettres, de
l'Institut des Systèmes Complexes de Paris-Ile de France et de
l'Institute of Informatics of the Federal University of Rio Grande do
Sul (Brésil).

Le programme et une présentation détaillée en anglais suivent.

                         CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
        WORKSHOP ON LANGUAGE, COGNITION AND COMPUTATIONAL MODELS

                         Paris, May 28-29, 2013
              https://sites.google.com/site/lccmodels/home

We are pleased  to invite you to:

	The Workshop on Language,  Cognition and Computational Models, 

which will be held in Paris at the Ecole Normale Supérieure (ENS) and at
the Institut des Systèmes Complexes de Paris, on May 28th and 29th 2013.

The goal of this event is to provide a venue for the multidisciplinary
discussion of theoretical and practical research for computational
models of language and cognition. The event centers around recent
advances on computational models for language acquisition, processing
and evolution.

The first day will mainly address language evolution and some of the
computational models that have been proposed to investigate possible
avenues for this phenomenon. The second day will address more varied
issues, ranging from the origins of language to recent trends in machine
translation. All the talks will address key questions dealing with
cognitive, formal and/or computational issues related to language
evolution and/or language processing.

The event is open to students, researchers and anyone interested in
related topics.  Attendance is free but people who plan to attend are
kindly requested to register preferably before May 1st to help with the
planning of the event. The registration form is available at

	https://sites.google.com/site/lccmodels/registration

The workshop is funded by the cluster of labs (labex) Transfers
(http://www.transfers.ens.fr/). It is organized thanks to the support of
Lattice, Ecole Normale Supérieure, Paris Sciences et Lettres, the
Institut des Systèmes Complexes de Paris-Ile de France, the Institute of
Informatics of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (Brazil).
