ACT-R is a high-level cognitive theory and simulation system for developing cognitive models for tasks that vary from simple reaction time experiments to driving a car, learning algebra, and air traffic control. ACT-R can be used to develop process models of a task at a symbolic level. Participants will follow a compressed five-day version of the traditional summer school cu
This workshop will take a corpus- and computational-linguistics perspective on fake news and related phenomena, where fake news is defined along the axes of veracity and honesty, giving rise to three types: 1) false but honest news, such as errors, which corresponds to misinformation; 2) false and dishonest news, such as lies; and 3) true but dishonest news, in which crucial pieces of information may be omitted (so as to fit a certain narrative, as seen, arguably, in propaganda), or in which tru
The Joint Workshop on Linguistics and Language Processing (JWLLP) is a recurring workshop that brings together researchers from linguistics, NLP, and language technology to examine the relationship between linguistic theory and language processing. The 35th workshop is co-organized by the LLM Powered LinguaMed Research Team and the Institute for the Study of Language and Information at Kyung Hee University (KH-ISLI).

Linguistics Prague is a conference aimed at graduate students of linguistics and related fields. Successfully running since 2013, the conference will be opened to international audience for the sixth time in 2026 with English as the language of the conference. Having become a well established event in Czech academia, the conference is set to welcome international researchers to improve the diversity and quality of the contributions even further. The conference aims at young researchers to provid
We extend a cordial invitation to all scholars and students (BA, MA, PhD) interested in the study of the Anglo-Saxon period and its multifaceted culture and society. This year we want to encourage participants to show the rich tapestry of approaches to Anglo-Saxon studies. This will hopefully allow for an interdisciplinary discussion and the continuation of our mission to gather scholars interested in the Anglo-Saxon past.
We welcome abstracts on any topic related to the Anglo-Saxon period (o

Overview:
Natural Language Processing (NLP) has undergone a significant evolution, opening up the possibility of capturing high-level aspects of human communication. Key areas of interest include the pragmatics, social dynamics, and the integration of social context, to further explore communicative int
Recent advances in Natural Language Processing (NLP), Deep Learning and Large Language Models (LLMs) have resulted in improved performance of applications. In particular, there has been a growing interest in employing AI methods in different Cyber Security applications.
In today's digital world, Cyber Security has emerged as a heightened priority for both individual users and organisations. As the volume of online information grows exponentially, traditional security approaches often strugg
