<h3 class="western"><strong>Call for Abstracts:</strong></h3>
<p>"Concepts in Action: Representation, Learning, and Application"
(CARLA) is an international workshop aimed at fostering
interdisciplinary exchange about research on concepts. It
invites contributions from all fields related to cognitive
science, including (but not limited to) linguistics, artificial
intelligence, psychology, philosophy, logic, and computer
science. Although the workshop is open for research on any
aspect of concepts, there exists a set of core topics that are
of special interest:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><strong>Representation</strong>:
<em>How can we formally describe and model concepts?</em> </p>
</li>
<li>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><strong>Learning</strong>: <em>Where
do concepts come from and how are they acquired?</em> </p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Application</strong>: <em>How are concepts used in
cognitive tasks?</em></p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>This workshop provides an excellent opportunity to present and
discuss ongoing research on concepts. We invite concept
researchers from all fields related to cognitive science to
submit abstracts to the workshop for oral or poster
presentations. </p>
