Ontology and Semantics at the Intersection of Linguistics, Computer Science, and Philosophy
Semantics and Philosophy in Europe (SPE 13) & OntoBRIX
PTH Brixen College, Bressanone, Italy, 8.–9. June 2026
Website: https://sites.google.com/view/spe13-ontobrix2026/
============================
Since some decades, ontology is used for supporting semantic analysis, both in linguistics and computing. In both fields, this leads to intensive interdisciplinary discussions between these fields and philosophical ontology. This colloquium aims at providing an interdisciplinary forum for researchers from relevant disciplines such as linguistics, computing science, information science, and philosophy. It brings together instalments of two series of events:
● The purpose of the Semantics and Philosophy in Europe (SPE) colloquia is to provide a forum for presenting research in the interface between linguistic semantics and various areas of philosophy (philosophy of language, philosophy of mind/cognition, metaphysics, and philosophy of mathematics). This year's colloquium Semantics and Philosophy in Europe (SPE13) wants to foster the dialogue between applied ontology, linguistics, and philosophy.
● The newly named OntoBRIX series intends to connect researchers from the Euroregio Tyrol–South Tyrol–Trentino and beyond; it has been inaugurated with a meeting in Brixen in 2023.
