SUMMARY:17 or 18 September 2015, EMNLP Workshop on
  Linking Models of Lexical, Sentential and Discour
 se-level Semantics (LSDSem 2015), Lisbon
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20150918

LOCATION:Lisbon
DESCRIPTION:Improved computational models of seman
 tics hold great promise for applications in langua
 ge technology, be it semantics at the lexical leve
 l, sentence level or discourse level. Large-scale 
 corpora with corresponding annotations (word sense
 s, propositions, attributions and discourse relati
 ons) are making it possible to develop statistical
  models for many tasks and applications. However, 
 developments in lexical and sentence-level semanti
 cs remain largely distinct from those in discourse
  semantics. This workshop aims at bridging this ga
 p by bringing together researchers to discuss how 
 multiple levels of semantics can be integrated and
  implemented in various applications.   Our goal i
 s to gather and showcase theoretical and computati
 onal approaches to joint models of semantics, and 
 applications that incorporate multi-level semantic
 s. We hope to bring together researchers from vari
 ous areas: computational linguistics who strive fo
 r more expressive models of language understanding
 , linguists and cognitive scientists interested in
  aspects of representing text with multiple levels
  of semantics, machine learning researchers intere
 sted in joint inference over different types of se
 mantic cues, and also researchers who are interest
 ed in applications that require or will benefit fr
 om multi-level semantics. A dialog between researc
 hers has great potential to advance work in each o
 f these areas and bring about more powerful and en
 riched models of text semantics.  For more informa
 tion, see http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/mroth/LSDS
 em/   The Programme Committee cordially invites al
 l researchers to submit their papers for presentat
 ion. Submission deadline is 28 June 2015.
