Workshop on 
NATURAL LANGUAGE AND COMPUTER SCIENCE  (NLCS '14)
17-18 July, 2014 Vienna, Austria
http://www.indiana.edu/~iulg/nlcs.html



AIMS AND SCOPE

Formal tools coming from logic, category theory, 
are important for natural language processing
and especially for 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 
have inspired developments on the formal side. 
The workshop invites papers on both topics and their applications, 
as well as on the combination between logical and statistical methods. 

Specific topics include, but are not limited to:

* linguistic, computational and logical aspects of the interface between syntax and semantics
* logical aspects of linguistic theories 
* 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 (quantitative, statistical) and declarative (logical) approaches to semantics
* natural language processing tools using some logic
