January 14, 2020 - 2nd edition of the World Logic Day - Under the auspices of UNESCO

von jean-yves beziau

After the adoption of January 14 as the World Logic Day by the Executive Council of UNESCO on October 17, 2019, January 14 was officially proclaimed as the World Logic Day at the 40th session of the General Conference of UNESCO in Paris, November 12-27, 2019. See below extracts of the text, related to the paper reporting the first edition celebrated in about 60 localities all around the world: 1st World Logic Day: 14 January 2019 https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11787-019-00221-5 We encourage everybody to organize a celebration of the World Logic Day on January 14 2020 under the auspices of UNESCO. Info about all the celebrations will be gathered in a single webpage with links to all the celebrations in the world as it was done for the 1st edition. http://logica-universalis.org/wld Here one of them already announced: https://epimenides.usal.es/?q=en/programa-2020 Best Wishes Jean-Yves Beziau Editor-in-Chief Logica Universalis President of the Brazilian Academy of Philosophy --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. The ability to think is one of the most defining features of humankind. In different cultures, the definition of humanity is associated with concepts such as consciousness, knowledge and reason. According to the classic western tradition, human beings are defined as “rational” or “logical animals”. Logic, as the investigation on the principles of reasoning, has been studied by many civilizations throughout history and, since its earliest formulations, logic has played an important role in the development of philosophy and the sciences. 2. Despite its undeniable relevance to the development of knowledge, sciences and technologies, there is little public awareness on the importance of logic. The proclamation of World Logic Day by UNESCO, in association with the International Council for Philosophy and Human Sciences (CIPSH), intends to bring the intellectual history, conceptual significance and practical implications of logic to the attention of interdisciplinary science communities and the broader public. 3. A dynamic and global annual celebration of World Logic Day aims at fostering international cooperation, promoting the development of logic, in both research and teaching, supporting the activities of associations, universities and other institutions involved with logic, and enhancing public understanding of logic and its implications for science, technology and innovation. Furthermore, the celebration of World Logic Day can also contribute to the promotion of a culture of peace, dialogue and mutual understanding, based on the advancement of education and science 4. On 14 January 2019, the first World Logic Day was celebrated as an initiative of universities, research institutes, foundations and associations active in the fields of mathematics, philosophy, computer sciences, engineering, economics and cognitive sciences. The existence of these networks, and their commitment to future annual celebrations of World Logic Day, offer credible assurance that the proclamation of the Day by UNESCO, in association with the relevant member organizations of the CIPSH, will lead to a solid action plan towards impact and added value. UNESCO’s commitment to World Logic Day will ensure that it has a broader and more geographically diverse orientation and connects organically to established programme priorities in the humanities.

Adequate coverage encounters difficult problems related to partiality, underspecification, and context-dependency, which are signature features of information in nature and natural languages. Furthermore, agents (humans or computational systems) are information conveyors, interpreters, or participate as components of informational content. Generally, language processing depends on agents' knowledge, reasoning, perspectives, and interactions. The session covers theoretical work, applications, approaches, and techniques for computational models of information and its presentation by language (artificial, human, or natural in other ways). The goal is to promote intelligent natural language processing and related models of thought, mental states, reasoning, and other cognitive processes. TOPICS We invite contributions relevant to the following topics, without being limited to them: - Type theories for applications to language and information processing - Computational grammar - Computational syntax - Computational semantics of natural languages - Computational syntax-semantics interface - Interfaces between morphology, lexicon, syntax, semantics, speech, text, pragmatics - Parsing - Multilingual processing - Large-scale grammars of natural languages - Interfaces between morphology, lexicon, syntax, semantics, speech, text, pragmatics - Models of computation and algorithms for natural language processing - Computational models of partiality, underspecification, and context-dependency - Models of situations, contexts, and agents, for applications to language processing - Information about space and time in language models and processing - Models of computation and algorithms for linguistics - Data science in language processing - Machine learning of language - Interdisciplinary methods - Integration of formal, computational, model theoretic, graphical, diagrammatic, statistical, and other related methods - Logic for information extraction or expression in written and spoken language - Language processing based on biological fundamentals of information and languages - Computational neuroscience of language IMPORTANT DATES Paper Submission: December 19, 2019 Authors Notification: January 9, 2020 Camera Ready and Registration: January 17, 2020 PAPER SUBMISSION Prospective authors are invited to submit papers in any of the topics listed above.
