The DIP (Discourse Processing) Colloquium
Date and time: biweekly on fridays, 15:00-17:00
Location: Room 001 (MFR), Philosophy Department, Vendelstraat 8, Amsterdam

The Discourse Colloquium (DIP) is held every two weeks at the University of Amsterdam, Departments of Philosophy and Linguistics. The colloquium aims to bring together researchers and students who are interested in discourse analysis and to encourage discussion, collaboration and cross-fertilization of ideas. The main topic is the interpretation of utterances in their (textual) context. The orientation of the colloquium is quite broad: the talks may focus on semantics, pragmatics, prosody, or even syntax.

Computational Linguistics Seminar
Date and time: weekly on wednesdays, 16:00
Location: Room A1.04, Science Park 904, Amsterdam

Talks by locals and outsiders, alternating with a reading group, on Computational Linguistics -- that is, research that is or can be implemented in a computer program, and tries to process or account for natural language data (which includes language modeling, statistical modeling, pattern recognition and machine learning methods, formal linguistic grammars, speech recognition, machine translation, computational semantics, and other topics that one currently finds at ACL, COLING, or in the CL journal).

The Colloquium on Mathematical Logic
Date: irregularly
Location: Room C1.112, Science Park 904, Amsterdam or Wiskundegebouw, Budapestlaan 6, Utrecht

Starting in the Academic Year 2003/2004, the ILLC and the Mathematics and Philosophy Departments of the Universiteit Utrecht will be jointly organizing a Colloquium on Mathematical Logic (organizers: Allessandra Palmigiano, Jouko Väänänen, Jaap van Oosten and Rosalie Iemhoff). This joint colloquium revives the tradition of the InterCity seminar of the 1970s and 1980s and will be a venue for talks by external guests, researchers from Amsterdam and Utrecht, and last but definitely not least, students from Amsterdam and Utrecht.

Computational Social Choice Seminar
Date: irregular
Location: Science Park 904, Amsterdam

The Computational Social Choice Seminar is a series of occasional talks that address issues at the interface of computer science (including logic, multiagent systems and artificial intelligence) and mathematical economics (including social choice theory, game theory and decision theory).

Logic and Interactive RAtionality
Date: biweekly (wednesdays or mondays)
Location: Science Park 904, Amsterdam

The LIRA seminar is a series of talks focusing on the social and interactive aspects of rationality. Core topics that are addressed by the seminar are topics in modal and dynamic logic, and topics that lie at the interface of logic and economic disciplines such as, eminently, game theory. The seminar regularly hosts long thematic sessions with two/three speakers.

Seminar on music cognition and computation
Date: irregular
Location: Room TBA, Science Park 904, Amsterdam

A reading/discussion group on music cognition and computation exists since 2004. For each meeting one or two articles are chosen (and read by the participants beforehand) to form the basis for a discussion.

SMART Cognitive Science Lectures
Date and time: monthly, 15:00-18.00
Location: UvA (building varies), Amsterdam

The SMART (Speech & language, Music, Art, Reasoning & Thought) Cognitive Science initiative is part of the 'zwaartepunt' Brain & Cognitive Science of the Faculty. The main activity in SMART CS will be a new lecture series with internationally renowned cognitive scientists; additionally, we will support existing activities and initiate new ones, both online and offline, to bring together cognitive scientists at the ILLC, ACLC and other research institutes of the Faculty and to highlight the contributions of the humanities to the cognitive sciences. Our activitities are organized in close collaboration with the Cognitive Science Center Amsterdam.
