- AMLaP-2001
The 7th annual conference on Architectures and Mechanisms for Language
Processing (AMLaP-2001), will be held in Saarbruecken, Germany from
September 20-22, 2001.
The aim of the conference is to bring together psychological,
computational,
and theoretical perspectives on the cognitive mechanisms which
underlie any
aspect of human language processing. Integration of experimental
psycholinguistic investigations with formal or computational models of
psychological processes is especially encouraged.

This years conference will also include a special session on the theme:
"Experience-based Models of Language Processing"
