SUMMARY:ESSLLI 2019 Workshop on Semantic Spaces at
  the Intersection of NLP, Physics, and Cognitive S
 ciences, Riga, Latvia
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20190805

LOCATION:Riga, Latvia
DESCRIPTION:Vector embeddings of word meanings hav
 e become a mainstream tool in large scale natural 
 language processing tools. The use of vectors to r
 epresent meanings in semantic spaces or feature sp
 aces is also employed in cognitive science. Unrela
 ted to natural language and cognitive science, vec
 tors and vector spaces have been extensively used 
 as models of physical theories and especially the 
 theory of quantum mechanics.  Exploiting the commo
 n ground provided by vector spaces, the proposed w
 orkshop will bring together researchers working at
  the intersection of NLP, cognitive science, and p
 hysics, offering to them an appropriate forum for 
 presenting their uniquely motivated work and ideas
 .  We invite original contributions (up to 12 page
 s) of previously unpublished work. Submission of s
 ubstantial, albeit partial results of work in prog
 ress is welcomed.  We also invite extended abstrac
 ts (3 pages) of previously published work that is 
 recent and relevant to the workshop. These should 
 include a link to a separately published paper or 
 preprint.
