In 2022 the workshop will be hosted by the Information, Communication and Entertainme nt Research Institute at Technological University Dublin, Ireland and the SFI ADAPT Research Centre. There will also be an online component for those who cannot travel to Dublin. This year, there wil l be a guiding theme for the conference: Interacti vism. The interactivist model (Bickhard, 2009) off ers a new dynamic approach to understanding langua ge, communication, and cognition. Across many disc iplines, from philosophy to neuroscience and robot ics, there is recognition that explanations of lif e and mind need to be grounded in the physics of f ar-from-equilibrium, interactive systems. From thi s starting point, explanations have been developed for phenomena ranging from representation, percep tion, and action to motivation, memory, learning a nd development, emotions, consciousness, rationali ty, sociality, personality and psychopathology. Th is work has yet to develop interfaces with studies of specific phenomena in dialogue modelling and o ur purpose is to open the discussion on how dialog ue researchers can take advantage of this and rela ted perspectives like Enactivism and Ecological Ps ychology. We welcome submissions on this special theme of Interactivism and we continue to welcome any papers with formal, computational and empirica l approaches to the semantics and pragmatics of di alogue. Authors should submit an *anonymous* paper of at most 8 pages of content (an additional 2 pa ges are allowed for references). SemDial 2022 cann ot accept work for publication or presentation tha t will be (or has been) published elsewhere. Submi ssions due: 2 June 2022. There will be a later ca ll for 2-page abstracts describing system demonstr ations and/or ongoing projects relevant to the top ics of the workshop, with submission deadline 15th July.

DubDial w ill be the 26th edition of the SemDial workshop se ries, which aims to bring together researchers wor king on the semantics and pragmatics of dialogue i n fields such as formal semantics and pragmatics, computational linguistics, artificial intelligence , philosophy, psychology, and neuroscience. In 202 2 the workshop will be hosted by the Information, Communication and Entertainment Research Institute at Technological University Dublin, Ireland and t he SFI ADAPT Research Centre.

This year, there will be a guidi ng theme for the conference: Interactivism. The in teractivist model (Bickhard, 2009) offers a new dy namic approach to understanding language, communic ation, and cognition. Across many disciplines, fro m philosophy to neuroscience and robotics, there i s recognition that explanations of life and mind n eed to be grounded in the physics of far-from-equi librium, interactive systems. From this starting p oint, explanations have been developed for phenome na ranging from representation, perception, and ac tion to motivation, memory, learning and developme nt, emotions, consciousness, rationality, socialit y, personality and psychopathology. This work has yet to develop interfaces with studies of specific phenomena in dialogue modelling and our purpose i s to open the discussion on how dialogue researche rs can take advantage of this and related perspect ives like Enactivism and Ecological Psychology.
