Poznan Reasoning Week

5-10 Sep 2016
Poznan, Poland

===================================================
POZNAN REASONING WEEK

Pozna?, Poland, 5-10.09.2016

===================================================

In recent years we are witnessing a cognitive turn in logic. It results in 
inclusion of some areas of cognitive science, psychology and computer 
science into its hard core. Consequently, logic becomes capable of 
modelling actual cognitive activity of real life agents. This turn does 
not create a rival for the mathematical logic: it forms a next step in the 
development of logic. It also reminds that for many centuries logic stood 
in a close and natural relationship to the science of actual reasoning 
processes.

Pozna? Reasoning Week, consisting of three conferences, aims at bringing 
together experts from various fields, whose research focus on reasoning 
processes and their modelling from three perspectives: 1. the interplay of 
logic and cognition (Logic and Cognition 2016); 2. formal modelling of 
reasoning and argumentation (14th ArgDiap); 3. natural question processing 
(QuestPro 2016).

Logic and Cognition 2016
5-6.09.2016
Logic and Cognition is an initiative focusing on research on the interplay
of logic, cognitive science, psychology and computer science which aim at
sheding the light on actual reasoning processes. In particular we invite
submissions on:
- applications of logic to the analysis of actual human reasoning
- tools and methods suited for such applications
- neural basis of logical reasoning
- educational issues of cognitively-oriented logic

14th ArgDiap: Formal Models of Reasoning and Argumentation
7-8.09.2016
In a joint initiative with ArgDiap organisation we invite submissions on
theory and practice of argumentation, formal modelling of argumentative
processes, dialogue and persuasion, and empirical research on these
phenomena.

QuestPro 2016
9-10.09.2016
There is only a little exaggeration in saying that fluency in reasoning
with questions is a landmark of human intelligence. Question processing is
a crucial factor in information processing in general, and more often than
not the effectiveness of the latter depends on successfull execution of the
former. The main purpose of QuestPro 2016 is to assess the state-of-the-art
in research on questions and questioning, from the point of view of both
logic and its applications to modelling natural language processes, thus
bridging the gap between formal and empirical research in this field.
