Dear colleagues,
the deadline for the International Conference on Error-Driven Learning
in Language (EDLL 2021) has been extended. The new deadline is Sunday,
20 December, 2020. (Midnight GMT -12).
Please see below for further details.
Date: 10-Mar-2021 - 12-Mar-2021
Location: Online /Tübingen, Germany
Website: https://quantling.org/EDLL2021/
International Conference on Error-Driven Learning in Language (EDLL 2021).
Error-driven learning models, such as Rescorla and Wagner (1972) and
Widrow and Hoff (1960) have had a major influence on many areas of
psychology related to human and animal learning. However, research on
language learning took a separate path for a long time. Recently,
insights from error-driven learning have begun to be applied to a
broad range of language phenomena with very promising results. For
example, error-driven learning models have addressed questions
relating to reading, spoken word comprehension, colour and number
acquisition, word learning, first and second language speech sound
acquisition, morphological processing, sentence processing, neural
correlates of prediction error and more.
The International Conference on Error-Driven Learning in Language
(EDLL 2021) aims to bring together researchers interested in
error-driven learning in speech and language. The conference will be
held online 10-12 March, 2021.
Call for Papers:
We are inviting experimental, computational or theoretical abstracts
on any topic in error-driven learning of speech or language. Suitable
topics include but are not limited to:
The role of error in
- first and second language acquisition
- learning or processing phonetic, morphological, syntactical or
lexical information
- sentence processing, syntax and grammar acquisition and processing
as well as
- neural processing of error feedback during speech and language
comprehension, production or learning
- the relationship between error-driven learning and information theory
- comparison of error-driven learning with different learning models
such as Hebbian learning, statistical learning, Bayesian learning,
distributional learning.
Invited speakers:
We are pleased to announce the following Keynote speakers:
Prof Adele Goldberg, University of Princeton
Prof Randall O’Reilly, University of California, Davis
Dr Petar Milin, University of Birmingham
Important dates:
Deadline extended! New deadline: 20 December, 2020
