Phonetics is the study of the sounds of the worlds languages and how they are used to communicate. A wealth of information is known by linguists about which sounds are used, how they are produced, how children learn these sounds, and how the use of sounds differs between different groups of speakers. Still, many fundamental questions remain unanswered relating to this important part of human language. The purpose of this Focussed Research Group is to bring together mathematicians and computer scientists who are interested in phonetics with linguists who are seeking ways to i) handle the massive amounts of data that are available in the human speech stream, and ii) develop mathematical models to clarify research questions and guide empirical study.

Spoken language is the favored media of communication between human beings whether face-to-face or through various communication tools such as the phone, voice chat applications or even the general media like the radio or TV. Hence, adding conversational interfaces to various types of computer software and hardware devices will make them more natural. To achieve this goal, there are still multiple challenges at all the levels from speech recognition and synthesis, spoken language understanding and generation as well as dialog management. To meet these challenges, interdisciplinary work at the cross roads between linguistics, AI, Data Science, and Cognitive Science is carried by researchers around the world.

The goal of this track is to be a forum for scholars and scientists to present their empirical research, and well-grounded theory related to Spoken Language Processing as well as to Dialog and Conversational Systems.

G21C (Grapholinguistics in the 21st Century) is a biennial conference bringing together disciplines concerned with grapholinguistics and more generally the study writing systems and their representation in written communication. The conference aims to reflect on the current state of research in the area, and on the role that writing and writing systems play in neighboring disciplines like computer science and information technology, communication, typography, psychology, and pedagogy. In particular it aims to study the effect of the growing importance of Unicode with regard to the future of reading and writing in human societies. Reflecting the richness of perspectives on writing systems, G21C is actively interdisciplinary, and welcomes proposals from researchers from the fields of computer science and information technology, linguistics, communication, pedagogy, psychology, history, and the social sciences.

Under the auspices of FoLLI the European Summer School in Logic, Language, and Information (ESSLLI) is organized every year in a different European country. It takes place over two weeks in the European Summer, hosts approximately 50 different courses at both the introductory and advanced levels, attracting around 400 participants each year from all the world. The main focus of the program of the summer schools is the interface between linguistics, logic and computation, with special emphasis in human linguistic and cognitive ability.

The field of natural language semantics has undergone what some refer to as an ‘experimental turn’ and is arguably currently undergoing a ‘computational turn’. By expanding the toolbox available to the semanticist, these two turns have the effect of expanding the phenomena that can be explained and the varieties of semantic explanation that can be offered. For example, experimental methods can help distinguish between alternative explanations of semantic effects, e.g. whether to classify controversial phenomena as implicatures or presuppositions. Similarly, computational models of semantics can generate fine-grained and non-categorical predictions that can fruitfully be tested experimentally. And both kinds of methods can be used to ask questions about the emergence of semantic structures in language, including which factors influence their distribution and typology. Given this wider toolbox and purview, we aim to gather a workshop to showcase exciting new work that develops new semantic explanations using experimental and computational methods, as well as to invite broader reflection on the methodology of semantics now and in its future. Topics of potential interest include but are not limited to: * Experimental semantics and pragmatics * Graded/non-categorical semantic theories and explanations * Information-theoretic measures and explanations in semantics and pragmatics * Semantic universals * Learnability and evolution of semantics and pragmatics * Bayesian approaches to semantics and pragmatics * Probing neural models for learned semantic representations * Semantics in emergent communication protocols * The methodology of semantics We invite anonymized submission of abstracts of 2 pages (12 pt font; 1in or 2.5cm margins) — with an extra page for references of figures — on new research on topics related to those listed above by February 15.

SemEval has evolved from the SensEval word sense disambiguation evaluation series. The SemEval wikipedia entry and the ACL SemEval Wiki provide a more detailed historical overview. SemEval-2020 will be the 14th workshop on semantic evaluation.

INTERSPEECH has grown into the world's largest technical conference focused on speech processing and application with over 1000 attendees and over 600 papers. The conferences emphasize interdisciplinary approaches addressing all aspects of speech science and technology, ranging from basic theories to advanced applications.

Recently, deep learning methods have been increasingly applied on spoken language technologies, including signal processing, language understanding and generation, dialogue management, as well as joint optimisations of these (end-to-end learning). However, such methods still have limitations and it is not yet clear that deep learning and joint optimisation is the key to the future. Encompassing the current deep learning trends and traditional knowledge-based methods, SLT's 2020 main theme will be around "Spoken language technologies: deep learning and beyond".

In the past years, Vietnam Fuzzy Systems Society (VFSS) organized successfully many artificial intelligence and fuzzy systems in such as VJFUZZY'98, MIF'99, VJFUZZY'2001, VJMEDIMAG'2001, Intech/VJFuzzy'2002, AFSS'2004, VN-KR MEDINFO'2005. In January of 2020, we organized successfully AICI’2020 at the Thang Long University, Vietnam. In the next year, the Second International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Computational Intelligence (AICI 2021), 15-16 January, 2021, will be organized by Institute of Information Technology, Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology with the sponsor of the International Fuzzy Systems Association (IFSA).
