MAPLL × TCP × TL × TALK (MT3) 2018 is to be held at Keio University
from July 28 (Sat) to July 29 (Sun), 2018. MT3 2018 is jointly
organized by Mental Architecture for Processing and Learning of
Language (MAPLL), Tokyo Conference on Psycholinguistics (TCP), the
technical group of thought and language of the Institute of
Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers (TL), and
Theoretical Linguistics at Keio (TALK).

Conference Date: July 28 (Sat)- July 29 (Sun), 2018

Venue: Keio University

Invited speakers:

This year’s MT3 invites the following distinguished speakers:

Jennifer Culbertson (University of Edinburgh)
http://jennifer-culbertson.github.io

MT3 invites submissions for paper (oral) or poster presentations in
any aspects of empirical research on human language. Studies from a
wide range of perspectives will be considered; including, but not
exclusive to:

Research conducting behavioral or neural experiments,
Research constructing theoretical or computational models,
Research inquiring into biological and/or evolutional foundations of
learning or processing of language by native or non-native speakers.

Following the tradition of TCP, those focusing on “Plato’s Problem”
concerning language acquisition (How can we gain a rich linguistic
system given our fragmentary and impoverished experience?) are
especially welcome.

MT3 2018 uses the EasyChair online abstract submission system.

Submission Deadline: March 31, 2018 (23:59 Japan Standard Time)

Abstracts should be submitted to:

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mapllttt2018

Anonymous abstracts should be submitted in letter or A4 format, with
1-inch or 2.5-cm margins on all sides, and in no smaller than 12 point
font. The abstract may be no longer than one page including additional
figures, tables, other graphics and/or references. Abstracts must be
written in English.
At the top of the abstract, please specify:

The title of your paper
Your preference for presentation type (oral or poster).

Paper (oral) presentations are scheduled to be 20 minutes, followed by
10 minutes of discussion.
Since the number of slots for oral presentations is limited, some of
the abstracts will be accepted for poster presentations.
All presentations should be given in English.
Acceptance or rejection will be notified by early May 2018.
