LENLS is an annual international workshop on formal syntax,
semantics and pragmatics. It will be held as one of the workshops of
the JSAI International Symposia on AI (isAI2017)
(https://www.ai-gakkai.or.jp/isai/)
sponsored by the Japan Society for Artificial Intelligence (JSAI).

  Aims and Topics:
================

We invite submissions to this year's workshop on topics in formal
syntax, semantics and pragmatics, and related fields, including but in no way
limited to the following:

- Formal syntax, semantics and pragmatics of natural language
- Model-theoretic and/or proof-theoretic semantics of natural language
- Computational Semantics
- Game-theoretic/Bayesian approaches to pragmatics
- Nonclassical Logic and its relation to natural language (especially
Substructural/Fuzzy/Categorical/Topological logics)
- Formal Philosophy of language
- Scientific methodology and/or experimental design for linguistics

Submissions:
============

Abstracts (anonymous, up to 4 pages, including figures and references,
A4 size, with 12 point font) must be submitted electronically in PDF
format at:

  https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=lenls14

When the abstract is accepted, the author is expected to submit a full
