===========================================================

Second International Conference on Dependency Linguistics
                     DepLing 2013

       http://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/project/depling13/
===========================================================
                Second Call for Papers
===========================================================

DepLing 2013 will be held at the Faculty of Mathematics
and Physics, Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic
on August 27-30, 2013.
The conference is organized by the Institute of Formal
and Applied Linguistics.

DepLing 2013 is the second conference in the DepLing series
(the first was held in Barcelona, Spain in 2011).
The series responds to the growing need for linguistic
meetings dedicated to syntactic, semantic and lexicographic
approaches that are centered around dependency as a central
notion.

============================================================
                    Important Dates
============================================================

   Submission deadline: April 15, 2013
   Notification of acceptance: May 31, 2013
   Camera-ready copy of papers due: June 17, 2013
   Depling Conference: August 27-31, 2013

============================================================
                Proceedings Publication
============================================================

In addition to the electronic version, there will be a hard
copy version of the Proceedings published by the MATFYZPRESS
(with the ISBN) available to the conference participants
at the registration. The papers accepted for the conference
will be indexed by the ACL Anthology.

============================================================
                        Topics
============================================================

Topics include, but are not limited to:

- The use of dependency trees in syntactic analysis,
  description, formalization, parsing, generation, and corpus
  annotation of written and spoken texts.
- The use of semantic valency-based predicate and actancy
  graph structures and their link to classical logic.
- The elaboration of formal dictionaries for dependency-based
  syntax and semantics, including descriptions of collocations
  and paradigmatic relations.
- Links to morphology and linearization of dependency
  structures, using for example topological field theories
- Dependency-like structures beyond the sentence as annotation
  scheme for discourse phenomena.
- The description and formalization of semantic and pragmatic
  phenomena related to information structure.
- History, epistemology, and psycholinguistic relevance
  of dependency grammar, including its relation to generative
  approaches to language

We are also interested in work on issues such as:

- What are the differences and similarities between theta
  roles, valencies, f-structures, TAG derivation trees,
  (subcategorization) frames, semantic role labelling, etc?
- Which corpus annotations using head-daughter relations
  on words are formally and linguistically equivalent,
  which are not?
- How to describe syntax-semantic interfaces between
  dependency structures?

============================================================
              Papers format and submission
============================================================

The deadline for the submissions is April 15, 2013.
The submissions will be electronic in PDF format through
the DepLing2013 EasyChair.

Papers may consist of up to 10 pages of content (including
references and figures), in the ACL two-column format.
Please see the instructions at:
http://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/project/depling13/?page=call_for_papers

Reviewing of papers will be double-blind.
