24 July 2008, Rules and Exemplars in Computational Language Acquisition, Washington D.C.

This workshop aims to discuss differences and convergences across a number of representative models of language acquisition, in the context of recent results in human language learning. In particular, we want to contribute to a better understanding of the interplay between prior knowledge and linguistic experience (rules and exemplars) in modeling the acquisition process of complex linguistic phenomena.
