Conceptual Spaces at Work 2016
25-27 August 2016, and workshop on 24 AUG
Södertörn University, Sweden
http://www.sh.se/csw16

This three-day meeeting focuses on *concepts and their applications* using
the theory of Conceptual Spaces (CS), as introduced by Peter Gärdenfors
(2000). It provides a geometric model for the representation of human
conceptual knowledge that bridges the symbolic and the sub-conceptual
levels of representation. The event is preceded by a one day workshop on
?Reasoning in CS? on 24 AUG 2016, on which see
