NLCS 2018 - Fifth Workshop on Natural Language and Computer Science

Formal tools coming from logic and category theory are important in both natural language semantics and in computational semantics. Moreover, work on these tools borrows heavily from all areas of theoretical computer science. In the other direction, applications having to do with natural language has inspired developments on the formal side. The workshop invites papers on both topics. Specific topics includes, but are not limited to:
logic for semantics of lexical items, sentences, discourse and dialog
continuations in natural language semantics
formal tools in textual inference, such as logics for natural language inference
applications of category theory in semantics
linear logic in semantics
formal approaches to unifying data-driven and declarative approaches to semantics
