Connectionists: Third Call for Abstracts – Workshop “Concepts in Action: Representation, Learning, and Application” (CARLA)

[Lucas Bechberger]

"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:
     - Representation: How can we formally describe and model concepts?
     - Learning: Where do concepts come from and how are they acquired?
     - Application: How are concepts used in cognitive tasks?

This workshop provides an excellent opportunity to present and discuss 
ongoing research on concepts. We invite concept researchers from all 
fields related to cognitive science to submit abstracts to the workshop 
for oral or poster presentations.

_Time and Venue:_
     August 11 and August 12, 2018, in Osnabrück (Germany)

_Invited Speakers:_
     Nicholas Asher, Christiane D. Fellbaum, Peter Gärdenfors, Robert L.
