=====================================

15th International Conference on Computational Semantics (IWCS)

Université de Lorraine, France

20-23th June 2023

	http://iwcs2023.loria.fr/


IWCS is the biennial meeting of SIGSEM [1], the ACL special interest
group on semantics [2]; this year's edition is organized in person by the 
Loria [3] and IDMC [4] of the Université de Lorraine.

The aim of the IWCS conference is to bring together researchers 
interested in any aspects of the computation, annotation, extraction, 
representation and neuralisation of meaning in natural language, 
whether this is from a lexical or structural semantic perspective. 
IWCS embraces both symbolic and machine learning approaches to 
computational semantics, and everything in between. The conference
and workshops will take place 20-23 June 2023.


=== WORKSHOP PROPOSALS ===

We invite proposals for '''workshops''' to be held in conjunction with 
IWCS 2023. We solicit proposals in all areas of computational
semantics, in other words all computational aspects of meaning of 
natural language within written, spoken, signed, or multi-modal 
communication.


Workshops are invited on these closely related areas, including the 
following:

* design of meaning representations
* syntax-semantics interface
* representing and resolving semantic ambiguity
* shallow and deep semantic processing and reasoning
* hybrid symbolic and statistical approaches to semantics
* distributional semantics
* alternative approaches to compositional semantics
* inference methods for computational semantics
* recognising textual entailment
* learning by reading
* methodologies and practices for semantic annotation
* machine learning of semantic structures
* probabilistic computational semantics
* neural semantic parsing
* computational aspects of lexical semantics
* semantics and ontologies
* semantic web and natural language processing
* semantic aspects of language generation
* generating from meaning representations
* semantic relations in discourse and dialogue
* semantics and pragmatics of dialogue acts
* multimodal and grounded approaches to computing meaning
* semantics-pragmatics interface
* applications of computational semantics


=== SUBMISSION INFORMATION ===

Proposals for workshops should contain:
* A title and brief (max two pages) description of the workshop topic 
and content;
* The names, affiliation and email addresses of the organisers;
* An estimate of the expected audience size;
* If the workshop has been held before, a note specifying where 
previous workshops were held, how many submissions the workshop 
received, how many papers were accepted and how many attendees 
the workshop attracted.

Proposals should be submitted on softconf:
	https://softconf.com/iwcs2023/IWCS-worshop/

as soon as possible, but no later than:
	23 January 2022.

Notification of acceptance of workshop proposals will be at 
	30 January 2022.


=== FINANCES ===

Workshops must be financially self-supporting. 
The conference organisers will establish registration rates to cover 
the costs.


=== IMPORTANT DATES ===

23 January 2023 Workshop proposal submissions due

30 January 2023 Workshop proposal notification of acceptance

20 June 2023 Workshop date (on 1 or 2 of these dates)

=== CONTACT ===
