The use of vectors
to represent meanings in semantic spaces or feature spaces is also employed in cognitive science. Unrelated to natural language and cognitive science, vectors and vector spaces have been extensively used as models of physical theories and especially the theory
of quantum mechanics. Crucial similarities between the vector representations of quantum mechanics and those of natural language are exhibited via bicompact linear logic and compact closed categorical structures in natural language. Exploiting the common ground
provided by vector spaces, the proposed workshop will bring together researchers working at the intersection of NLP, cognitive science, and physics, offering to them an appropriate forum for presenting their uniquely motivated work and ideas. The interplay
between these three disciplines will foster theoretically motivated approaches to understanding how meanings of words interact with each other in sentences and discourse via grammatical types, how they are determined by input from the world, and how word and
sentence meanings interact logically.</span></div><div class="" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-variant-ligatures: none; margin: 0px; outline: none; position: relative; color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-size: 11pt; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; line-height: 1.15; white-space: pre-wrap; border: none; padding: 0px;"><br class="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"></div><div class="" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-variant-ligatures: none; margin: 0px; outline: none; position: relative; color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-size: 11pt; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; line-height: 1.15; white-space: pre-wrap; border: none; padding: 0px;"><span class="" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt; vertical-align: baseline;">Topics of interest include (but are not restricted to):</span></div><div class="" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-variant-ligatures: none; margin: 0px; outline: none; position: relative; color: rgb(33, 33, 33); font-size: 11pt; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; line-height: 1.15; white-space: pre-wrap; border: none; padding: 0px;">
