Testing Models of Phonetics and Phonology
Workshop at the Linguistic Institute 2011: Language in the World
University of Colorado at Boulder
Wednesday, July 13th, 2011

Co-sponsored by
Northwestern Department of Linguistics
Stanford Department of Linguistics
UMass Institute for Computational and Experimental Study of Language
National Science Foundation

This single day workshop aims to build connections between 
computational, experimental, and grammar-based research on phonetics and 
phonology. Studies using each of these general methodologies often have 
similar goals and produce mutually informing results, but they are 
usually presented in distinct journals and conferences, creating a 
barrier to their integration. The workshop brings together researchers 
in the areas of speech production, speech perception, and modeling of 
language acquisition.


**Second call for poster submissions**
In addition to the spoken sessions (see below), a poster session will be 
held during the workshop.  We invite submission of abstracts reporting 
computational, experimental, and grammar-based research on phonetics and 
phonology.

Abstracts should be a one-page .pdf file, formatted at minimum 12-point 
single-spaced with 1 inch margins.  Tables, graphs and references can be 
on a separate page.  Abstracts must be submitted electronically to 
lsa2011-workshop at ling.northwestern.edu 
<mailto:lsa2011-workshop at ling.northwestern.edu>.  Deadline for 
submissions: May 1, 2011.

Accepted abstracts will be posted to the workshop website.

Note: Participants may also be interested in the workshop on 
"Information-based approaches to linguistics" to be held the following 
weekend (July 16-17).  See 
http://www.ling.ohio-state.edu/LSAinfotheory/ for more details.
