[CogSci] Call for Papers: 2019 meeting of Cognitive Modeling and Computational Linguistics

[Cassandra Jacobs]

(Apologies for cross-posting)


*Cognitive Modeling and Computational Linguistics*, a workshop to be held
at the 2019 meeting of the North American Association for Computational
Linguistics (NAACL) is now accepting submissions.

Workshop Description

Cognitive Modeling and Computational Linguistics (CMCL) 2019 is a one-day
workshop held in conjunction with the Annual Conference of the North
American chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics (NAACL),
Minneapolis, June 2-7 2019.


The goal of CMCL is providing a venue for computational research on
cognitive theories of language processing, representation and acquisition. The
2019 workshop follows in the tradition of earlier meetings at ACL 2010, ACL
2011, NAACL-HLT 2012, ACL 2013, ACL 2014, NAACL 2015, EACL 2017, and LSA
2018.

Scope and Topics

The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

   -

   Stochastic models of factors influencing a speaker’s production or
   comprehension decisions
   -

   Models of semantic interpretation, including psychologically realistic
   notions of word and phrase meaning and composition
   -

   Incremental parsers for diverse grammar formalisms and their
   psychological plausibility
   -

   Models of speaker-specific linguistic adaptation and/or generalization
   -

   Models of first and second language acquisition and bilingual language
   processing
   -

   Behavioral tasks for better understanding neural models of linguistic
   representation
   -

   Models and empirical analysis of the relationship between mechanistic
   psycholinguistic principles and pragmatics or semantics
   -

   Models of lexical acquisition, including phonology, morphology, and
   semantics
   -

   Psychologically motivated models of grammar induction
   -

   Psychologically plausible models of lexical or conceptual representations
   -

   Models of language disorders, such as aphasia, dyslexia, or dysgraphia
   -

   Behavioral datasets or resources for modeling language processing or
   production in languages other than English
   -

   Models of language comprehension difficulty
   -

   Models of language learning and generalization
   -

   Models of linguistic information propagation and language evolution in
   communities
   -

   Network science and language processing


Workshop Submissions

We accept three categories of papers: regular workshop papers, extended
abstracts and cross-submissions. Only regular workshop papers will be
included in the proceedings as archival publications. All submissions
should be in PDF format and made through the Softconf website:
https://www.softconf.com/naacl2019/cmcl/

To facilitate double-blind reviewing, submitted manuscripts should not
include any identifying information about the authors.

Submissions must be formatted using NAACL 2019 templates, available at:
https://naacl2019.org/calls/papers/.

If essentially identical papers are submitted to multiple conferences /
workshops, the authors are asked to indicate this fact at submission time.

Regular Submissions Papers can be either full (8 pages of content +
references) or short papers (4 pages + references) reporting original and
unpublished research that combines cognitive modeling and computational
linguistics. Accepted papers are expected to be presented at the workshop
(oral presentation or poster) and will be published in the workshop
proceedings.

Extended Abstracts (from 2 to 4 pages + references) describe preliminary
work or results that have not been published before. Accepted abstracts
will be presented as posters, but will not be included in the workshop
proceedings.

We will also accept Cross-submissions (from 2 to 4 pages + references) for
papers on related topics that have already appeared in a non-NLP venue
(e.g. CogSci). These papers will be presented as posters, but will not be
included in the proceedings. Interested authors are asked to add a note on
the original venue in the submission.
