<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 style="margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: 100%"><strong><span
