CALL FOR PAPERS AND PARTICIPATION
AAAI-94 Workshop on the
Integration of Natural Language and Vision Processing
Twelfth National Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AAAI-94)
Seattle, Washington, USA
2 days during July 31st-August 4th 1994
Chair:
Paul Mc Kevitt
Department of Computer Science
University of Sheffield
WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION
There has been a recent move towards considering the integration of
perception sources in Artificial Intelligence (AI) (see Dennett 1991
and Mc Kevitt (Guest Ed.) 1994). This workshop will focus on research
involved in the integration of Natural Language Processing (NLP) and
Vision Processing (VP).
Although there has been much progress in developing theories, models
and systems in the areas of NLP and VP there has been little progress
on integrating these two subareas of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
It is not clear why there has not already been much activity in
integrating NLP and VP. Is it because of the long-time reductionist
trend in science up until the recent emphasis on chaos theory,
non-linear systems, and emergent behaviour? Or, is it because the
people who have tended to work on NLP tend to be in other Departments,
or of a different ilk, to those who have worked on VP?
We believe it is high time to bring together NLP and VP. Already we
have advertised a call for papers for a special issue of the Journal
of AI Review to focus on the integration of NLP and VP and we have had
a tremendous response. There will be three special issues focussing
on theory and applications of NLP and VP. Also, there will be an issue
focussing on intelligent multimedia systems.
The workshop is of particular interest at this time because research
in NLP and VP have advanced to the stage that they can each benefit
from integrated approaches. Also, such integration is important as
people in NLP and VP can gain insight from each others' work.

WORKSHOP TOPICS:
The workshop will focus on three themes:
* Theoretical issues on integrated NLP and VP
* Systems exhibiting integrated NLP and VP
* Intelligent multimedia involving NLP and VP
The following issues will be focussed upon during the workshop:
* Common representations for NLP and VP
* How does NLP help VP and vice-versa?
* What does integration buy us?
* Symbolic versus connectionist models
* Varieties of communication between NLP and VP processors
* Designs for integrating NLP + VP
* Tools for integrating NLP + VP
* Possible applications of integration
WORKSHOP FORMAT:
Our intention is to have as much discussion as possible during the
workshop and to stress panel sessions and discussion rather than
having formal paper presentations. We will also organize a number of
presentations on Site Descriptions of ongoing work on NLP + VP. There
may be a number of invited speakers.
Day 1: Theory and
modelling for integrated NLP and VP.
Day 2: Systems
for integrated NLP/VP, and intelligent multimedia.
ATTENDANCE:
We hope to have an attendance between 25-50 people at the workshop.
SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS:
Papers of not more than 8 pages should be submitted by electronic mail
to Paul Mc Kevitt at p.mckevitt@dcs.shef.ac.uk. Preferred format is
two columns with 3/4 " margins all round. Papers must be printed to 8
1/2" x 11" size. Double sided printing is encouraged. If you cannot

Foreword
********
The actual developments in the field of artificial neural networks mark a
watershed in its relatively young history. Far from the blind passion for
disparate applications some years ago, the tendency is now to an objective
assessment of this emerging technology, with a better knowledge of the
basic concepts, and more appropriate comparisons and links with classical
methods of computing.
Neural networks are not restricted to the use of back-propagation and
multi-layer perceptrons. Self-organization, adaptive signal processing,
vector quantization, classification, statistics, image and speech
processing are some of the domains where neural networks techniques may be
successfully used; but a beneficial use goes through an in-depth
examination of both the theoretical basis of the neural techniques and
standard methods commonly used in the specified domain.
ESANN'94 is the second symposium covering these specified aspects of neural
networks computing. After a successful edition in 1993, ESANN'94 will open
new perspectives, by focusing on theoretical and mathematical aspects of
neural networks, biologically-inspired models, statistical aspects, and
relations between neural networks and both information and signal
processing (classification, vector quantization, self-organization,
approximation of functions, image and speech processing,...).
The steering and program committees of ESANN'94 are pleased to invite you
to participate to this symposium. More than a formal conference presenting
the last developments in the field, ESANN'94 will be also a forum for open
discussions, round tables and opportunities for future collaborations. We
hope to have the pleasure to meet you in April, in the splendid town of
Brussels, and that your stay in Belgium will be as scientifically
beneficial as agreeable.
