SEMDIAL 2012 (SeineDial)
The 16th WORKSHOP ON THE SEMANTICS AND PRAGMATICS OF DIALOGUE
PARIS, SEPTEMBER 19-21, 2012
https://sites.google.com/site/semdial2012seinedial/

Invited Speakers:
Eve V. Clark (Stanford University)
Geert-Jan M. Kruijff (DFKI-Saarbrücken)
François Recanati (Institut Jean Nicod, École Normale Supérieure)

The SEMDIAL series of workshops brings together researchers working on the semantics and pragmatics of dialogue in fields such as artificial intelligence, computational linguistics, formal semantics/pragmatics, philosophy, psychology, and neuroscience (see past SemDials).
In 2012 the workshop will be hosted by Université Paris-Diderot (Paris 7). The Semdial workshops are always stimulating and fun, and Paris is of course one of the greatest cities to visit, especially in September. SeineDial will be immediately preceded by a workshop on Dialogue and Contextualism (see https://sites.google.com/site/semdial2012seinedial/workshop-on-dialogue-and-contextualism ) and will feature a special session on The Acquisition of Dialogue.

We invite papers on all topics related to the semantics and pragmatics of dialogues, including, but not limited to:

--models of common ground/mutual belief in communication
--modelling agents' information states and how they get updated
--multi-agent models and turn-taking
--goals, intentions and commitments in communication
--semantic interpretation in dialogues
--reference in dialogues
--ellipsis resolution in dialogues
--dialogue and discourse structure
--interpretation of questions and answers
--gesture in communication
--intonational meaning in dialogue
--humour in dialogue
--natural language understanding and reasoning in spoken dialogue systems
--multimodal dialogue systems
--dialogue management in practical implementations
--categorisation of dialogue moves or speech acts in corpora
--designing and evaluating dialogue systems
--contextual factors underlying child utterances in dialogue
--repair in child/adult interaction

Important Dates:
--May 1, 2012: Paper submissions due at 23:59 UTC-11

--June 15, 2012: Author notification for full papers

--June 30, 2012: Poster and demo submissions

--July 10, 2012: Author notification for posters and demos

--August 20, 2012: Camera-ready copies

--September 19-21, 2012: Workshop in Paris

We will have a separate submission of late-breaking system
demonstrations and ongoing project descriptions, to be presented in
a poster session during the workshop. Late-breaking submissions
will be two pages long; they will not be refereed, but evaluated
for relevance only by the area chairs. Submission of late-breaking
abstracts will be allowed only after review of the main session
