*CALL FOR PAPERS* Fourth Workshop on Natural Language and Computer Science NLCS '16 July 10, 2016 New York, NY http://www.indiana.edu/~iulg/nlcs.html A workshop affiliated with the 30th Annual ACM/IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science (LICS 2016) Paper submission deadline: May 10, 2016. AIMS AND SCOPE Formal tools coming from logic and category theory are important in both natural language semantics and in computational semantics. Moreover, work on these tools borrows heavily from all areas of theoretical computer science. In the other direction, applications having to do with natural language has inspired developments on the formal side. The workshop invites papers on both topics. Specific topics include, but are not limited to: ??? logic for semantics of lexical items, sentences, discourse and dialog ??? continuations in natural language semantics ??? formal tools in textual inference, such as logics for natural language inference ??? applications of category theory in semantics ??? linear logic in semantics ??? formal approaches to unifying data-driven and declarative approaches to semantics INVITED SPEAKERS Lucas Champollion, New York University Uli Sattler, University of Manchester PROGRAM COMMITTEE Chris Barker, New York University Cleo Condoravdi, Stanford University Philippe de Groote, Inria Gerard de Melo, Tsinghua University Valeria de Paiva, Nuance Communications Makoto Kanazawa, National Institute of Informatics Larry Moss, Indiana University Christian Retor??, Universit?? de Montpellier PAPER SUBMISSIONS May be made through Easychair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=nlcs16 ORGANIZERS Chris Barker New York University Email: chris barker at nyu . edu Valeria de Paiva Nuance.com Email: Valeria.dePaiva at nuance .com Larry Moss Indiana University Email: lsm at cs.indiana . edu IMPORTANT DATES Paper submission: May 10, 2016 Notification: May 20, 2016 Electronic versions due: June 14, 2016 Workshop: July 10, 2016???
