PROGRAMME AND CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
AAAI-94 Workshop on
Integration of Natural Language and Vision Processing
Twelfth National Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AAAI-94)
Seattle, Washington, USA
Tuesday/Wednesday, August 2nd/3rd, 1994
Chair:
Paul Mc Kevitt
Department of Computer Science
University of Sheffield, ENGLAND, EU
WORKSHOP COMMITTEE:
Prof. Mike Brady (Oxford, England)
Prof. Jerry Feldman (ICSI, Berkeley, USA)
Prof. John Frisby (Sheffield, England)
Prof. Frank Harary (CRL, New Mexico, USA)
Dr. Eduard Hovy (USC ISI, Los Angeles, USA)

Prof. Noel Sharkey (Sheffield, England)
Dr. Oliviero Stock (IRST, Italy)
Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Wahlster (DFKI, Germany)
Prof. Yorick Wilks (Sheffield, England)
WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION:
There has been a recent move towards considering the integration of
perception sources in Artificial Intelligence (AI) (see Dennett 1991
and Mc Kevitt (Guest Ed.) 1994). This workshop will focus on research
involved in the integration of Natural Language Processing (NLP) and
Vision Processing (VP).
Although there has been much progress in developing theories, models
and systems in the areas of NLP and VP there has been little progress
on integrating these two subareas of Artificial Intelligence (AI). It
is not clear why there has not already been much activity in
integrating these two areas. Is it because of the long-time reductionist
trend in science up until the recent emphasis on chaos theory,
nonlinear systems, and emergent behaviour? Or, is it because the
people who have tended to work on NLP tend to be in other Departments,
or of a different ilk, from those who have worked on VP?
We believe it is high time to bring together NLP and VP. Already we
have advertised a call for papers for a special volume of the Journal
of AI Review to focus on their integration and we have had
a tremendous response. There will be three special issues focussing
on theory and applications of NLP and VP and intelligent multimedia
systems.
The workshop is of particular interest at this time because research
in NLP and VP has advanced to the stage that they can each benefit
from integrated approaches. Also, such integration is important as
people in NLP and VP can gain insight from each others' work.

Call for cognitive psychology and cognitive science PhD applicants
The Department of General Psychology at Eoetvoes University calls for
applicants for a three year long PhD program on cognitive
psycholopgy and cognitive science. This is the second year of the
program.
Applicants are kindly asked to submit (either in Hungarian or
English):
-- a CV
-- copies of diplome and university records
-- publication list (if any)
-- a study plan and a research plan
-- two letters of recommendation
-- documents proving proficiency in English
-- one or two papers or manuscripts of the applicant, preferably in
English.
The program involves organized classes (with exams), participation
in research (beside the individual research), and teaching
activities. PhD students will have a student status and those who
do not have a scholarship or a job will get a relatively
substantial scholarship.
The language of instruction will be English partly to
accomodate our foreign host teachers, partly because we are
encouraging our students to apply for scholarships abroad, too.
Applications forms are available at the PhD office of the
Humanities Faculty of ELTE from Alice Csoba (Piarista koez 1,
Budapest, I. e. 44). She would also give technical advice (T: 266-
83-04). Substantial information can be obtained from Csaba Pleh,
pleh(a)izabell.elte.hu, 1-423-130. Budapest, Izabella 46.
We encourage graduates in psychology, linguistics, philosophy,
biology, computing science, math and engineering to apply.
Deadline for application: June 10th.
Probable oral exam times: June 20th to 30th.
