On the other hand, recent Deep Learning development of Natural Language Processing (NLP) models allow to capture increasing language complexity (e.g. compositional representations, word embedding, long term dependencies). However, those NLP models are disembodied in the sense that they are learned from static datasets of text or speech. How can we bridge the gap from low-level sensorimotor interaction to high-level compositional symbolic communication? The SMILES workshop will address this issue through an interdisciplinary approach involving researchers from (but not limited to):</div><div class="">- Sensori-motor learning,</div><div class="">- Symbol grounding and symbol emergence,</div><div class="">- Emergent communication in multi-agent systems,</div><div class="">- Chunking of perceptuo-motor gestures (gestures in a general sense: motor, vocal, ...),</div><div class="">- Compositional representations for communication and action sequence,</div><div class="">- Hierarchical representations of temporal information,</div><div class="">- Language processing and language acquisition in brains and machines,</div><div class="">- Models of animal communication,</div><div class="">- Understanding composition and temporal processing in neural network models, and</div><div class="">- Enaction, active perception, perception-action loop.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">* More info</div><div class="">- contact: <a href="mailto:smiles.conf@gmail.com" class="">smiles.conf@gmail.com</a></div><div class="">- organizers: Xavier Hinaut, Clément Moulin-Frier, Silvia Pagliarini, Joni Zhong, Michael Spranger, Tadahiro Taniguchi, Anne Warlaumont.</div><div class="">- ICDL conference website: <a href="https://icdl2022.qmul.ac.uk/" class="">https://icdl2022.qmul.ac.uk/</a></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Xavier Hinaut</div><div class="">on behalf of the SMILES workshop organisers:</div><div class="">- Clément Moulin-Frier, Inria and Ensta ParisTech, Bordeaux, France</div><div class="">- Anne Warlaumont, UCLA, Los Angeles, USA</div><div class="">- Silvia Pagliarini, UCLA, Los Angeles, USA</div><div class="">- Michael Spranger, Sony AI and Sony CSL, Tokyo, Japan</div><div class="">- Tadahiro Taniguchi, Ritsumeikan University, Kyoto, Japan</div><div class="">- Junpei Zhong, Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong, China</div></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><br class=""><div class="">
