The IMMI-CNRS, the DGLFLF, the LIMSI-CNRS and ELRA/ELDA are organizing a symposium on the theme of the development of technologies for the regional languages ??of France. It will be held on February 19 and 20, 2015 in the Paris region (Meudon) and should bring together around sixty participants, including representatives of the DGLFLF, local authorities, administrations and agencies. national authorities, scientific experts and members of associations for the defense of regional languages, in France and in Europe (http://tlrf2015.sciencesconf.org/). We start from the observation that advances in automatic language processing only concern 1% of the languages ??spoken in the world, including few regional languages, in particular those of France. However, a few examples (Basque and Catalan languages ??in Spain among others) show us that, provided political will, scientific knowledge and technical know-how are combined, the rapid development of state-of-the-art technologies – the art of language processing is possible for regional languages, by providing them with the necessary resources and tools. This makes it possible to stimulate more fundamental research on languages ??and to tackle the challenge of establishing genuine multilingualism taking into account dialectal varieties, while allowing the challenge of development of applications with high added value for local authorities (for example for tourism). This symposium therefore aims to bring together linguists, specialists in automatic language processing, representatives of local authorities, national administrations and agencies and regional language offices, in order to:

The first symposium is made up of oral presentations, followed the next day by round tables; the result will be a draft action plan, which will be reinforced if necessary by other colloquia.

Participation is 160€ (‘Academic’ rate) for the two days of the conference and includes dinner on Thursday 19 February and lunches and breaks for the two days.

You have the option of supporting the colloquium by choosing the ‘Sponsorship’ rate of 260€.

Registrations are open and can be done on the AzurColloque website:

International workshop on Audio-Visual Affective Prosody in social interaction & second language learning (AVAP 2015) Bordeaux, 5 and 6 March 2015 Official Web site: avap2015.labri.fr Call for communication   Description:  The main topic of this workshop is social affective meaning (including emotions, mood, feeling and intentions or attitudes) conveyed by audio as well as visual control. For the past 20 years, expressiveness of various affective meanings in many languages ??/ cultures has become a popular topic of research in various scientific fields: affective computing, cultural psychology, cognitive psychology, linguistics, phonetics, speech processing, visual processing and artificial intelligence. However, these characteristics are not sufficiently analyzed for application to human-human and human-machine interaction. The aim of this workshop is to gather specialists of the above-mentioned fields for a two day meeting in Bordeaux.

Theory of mind and Language: Experimental data and clinical applications

Speech and Language Laboratory (LPL CNRS UMR 7309, Aix-Marseille University)

Conference room B011, 5 avenue Pasteur, 13100 Aix-en-Provence, France

Theory of mind is the ability to form representations of other people’s mental states and to use these representations to understand, predict and judge their statements and behaviors (Baron-Cohen, Leslie, & Frith, 1985; Premack & Woodruff, 1978) . Study of this ability has become a major focus for cognitive sciences in the last twenty years, showing that this ability plays a fundamental role for social interactions. While loads of researches (particularly in pathology and in development) give support to a relationship between theory of mind and language, the role of this cognitive ability in meaning construction is still under debate.

Is theory of mind conveyed by language (e.g. reference marker, prosody, gestures) during social interaction? Does theory of mind play a role in meaning construction? Do speakers take the perspective of the listener to explain or understand meaning? If it is the case, do linguistic forms such as reference markers or intonation contours signal how the speaker takes the listener’s perspective into account? And how do the listeners use this linguistic information to interpret the speaker’s mental states?

The aim of this conference will be to present and discuss experimental data dealing with the relationship between theory of mind and language in different population (e.g. development, healthy people, pathology). Our main goal will be to bring together researchers from different backgrounds (cognitive sciences, experimental psychology, neuropsychology, psycholinguistics, phonetics/phonology, and pragmatics) with a view to improve our understanding of how language can convey theory of mind during social interactions.

The conference is organized by Maud Champagne-Lavau, Cristel Portes, Amandine Michelas (LPL) and Claire Beyssade (Paris 8 & Institut Jean Nicod).

Registration and abstract submission for the conference can be completed at the following link: http://mindprogest.sciencesconf.org

Registration is free but you must register to be able to attend the conference.

We welcome the submission of abstracts for posters on any area of ??scientific domains (experimental psychology, cognitive neurosciences, phonetics, phonology, pragmatics) with a view to improve our understanding of the relationship between ToM and Language.Â

Abstracts should be written in English or French and not exceed 250 words. An extra page may be added for figures and references. Submissions must be sent with the author’s name(s), affiliation(s) and e-mail address(es).

The lack of clarity and realism in relation to your objectives.

Lack of focus and inability to say no to new opportunities.

Procrastination and inaction towards your goals.

How to be objective?

Focus on these reflexes to become more objective.

Understand that you are often subjective. Objectivity is above all the fact of making a judgment without involving your preferences or convictions. .

Set up control criteria. .

Take a lot of opinions. .

How to explain his professional objective?

The most effective professional objective is limited to two or three sentences. No need to go too long, at the risk of weighing down your CV and repeating what you may have written in your cover letter. Be sincere in your words, but also realistic about your background and your ambitions.

What is a personal goal?

Personal goals refer to each employee’s job-specific goals. They are important because they communicate to employees what is important and what is expected of them.

What are your short term goals?

A short-term goal is a goal applicable for a certain period of time, for example until next week or next month. These goals often serve as intermediate steps to major goals. They are therefore generally easier to reach.

How do you achieve your summary goals?

Make your life a dream, not dream your life. Go from a vague desire to the concrete realization of what is really important to you. Stop stopping at good resolutions to finally make real changes and immediate action.
