Probabili ty and Meaning (PaM) is a conference organized by the Centre for Linguistic Theory and Studies in Pr obability (CLASP). PaM will bring together r esearchers interested in computationally relevant probabilistic approaches to natural language meani ng. PaM will include symbolic, machine learning an d experimental approaches to this task, as well as hybrid models.
\n\nAfter careful consider ation of the pandemic situation, the conference is moving online. The registration for PaM2020 is no w open and free.
\nWe welcome all probabilistic approaches, developed within a computational framework, to the semantics of natur al language for written, spoken, or multimodal com munication. Papers are invited on topics in these and closely related areas.
\n\nPaM will fe ature three types of submissions: long papers, stu dent papers, and short papers. All types of papers should be submitted not later than 12th February, 2020. Long papers describe original research, and they must not exceed 8 pages excluding references . Student papers describe original research, and t he first author must be a student, or at least 2/3 of the work on a paper should be done by students . Student papers must not exceed 6 pages excluding references. Reviewers will give special support t o student authors through mentoring. Short papers present work in progress, or they describe systems and/or projects. They must not exceed 4 pages exc luding references.
