5-7 September 2005, AMLaP Conference on Architectures and Mechanisms of Language Processing, Gent, Belgium

AMLaP is an annual international conference which has established itself as the premier European venue for interdisciplinary research into how people process language. The conference aims to bring together psychological, computational, and theoretical perspectives on the cognitive architectures and mechanisms which underly any aspect of human language processing, from lexical processing, parsing and interpretation, through to discourse level mechanisms. Contributions to AMLaP which explicity relate empirical and experimental findings and computational mechanisms are especially encouraged. Topics relevant to the conference include (but are not limited to): computational models, cross-linguistic studies, language production, statistical mechanisms, corpus-based studies, discourse, lexical processing, parsing and interpretation, learning mechanisms, connectionist models, computer simulations and models of acquisition.
