YNiC seminar today
by Rebecca E Millman 07 Jul '11

07 Jul '11

Dear Users Today (4-5 pm) there will be a project proposal presentation given by Rich Harris. The title of Rich's talk is "The neural representation of perceived changes in facial expression". Please see below for the talk abstract. Everyone is welcome to attend and refreshments will be provided. Best wishes Rebecca Abstract: How the brain represents different aspects of faces remains controversial. This experiment will present participants with stimuli drawn from morphed continua between two different emotional facial expressions. In paired presentations, a second face could: (1) be identical to the first; (2) share the perceived expression category but differ physically along the morphed continuum (within-expression change); (3) differ physically by the same distance along the continuum but in a direction that leads participants to classify the face pairs as showing expressions of different basic emotions (between-expression change). Using an fMR-adaptation paradigm, our aim is to reveal regions of the brain whose activity corresponds to our sensitivity to changes in facial expression. -- Dr. Rebecca E.

[Fwd: PhD scholarships, Heidelberg University]
by Gary Green 06 Jul '11

FYI ------------------------ -------- Original Message -------- Subject: PhD scholarships, Heidelberg University Date: Tue, 5 Jul 2011 22:37:26 +0200 From: Sebastian Padó <pado(a)cl.uni-heidelberg.de> Reply-To: Sebastian Padó <pado(a)cl.uni-heidelberg.de> To: researchers(a)pascal-network.org 5 PhD scholarships in Computational Linguistics: "Semantics beyond the sentence" (Date: July 5th 2011, Deadline: July 31st) We are soliciting applications for 5 PhD scholarships (EUR 1310 per month, tax-free) within the research initiative "Coherence in Language Processing: Semantics Beyond the Sentence". They are associated with the Graduate Program "Semantic Processing", jointly organized by the Computational Linguistics Department (ICL) at Heidelberg University [1] and the NLP Group at HITS gGmbH [2] in Heidelberg, Germany. The scholarships are available from October 1st, 2011, and will run three years (dependent on positive evaluations after the first and second years). The goal of the research initiative "Coherence in Language Processing: Semantics Beyond the Sentence" is to investigate computational models of semantic phenomena at the discourse level by (a) analysing semantic phenomena at the discourse level and represent them; (b) using these representatons to improve semantic analysis; (c) evaluating (a) and (b) in NLP applications, including SMT. See [3] for details. Candidates should have a strong background in computational linguistics and possess a Masters or a Diploma degree in either Computational Linguistics or Computer Science/Linguistics with a specialization in Natural Language Processing. Experience with machine learning, corpus-based methods and statistics is a plus. Strong programming skills (Java, C++, or Python) are required. Scholarship holders will become members of the graduate program "Semantic Processing" [4]. They will participate in a PhD colloquium and may attend lectures at the university and the Heidelberg Graduate School "MathComp" [5]. The graduate program provides a lively research environment with about ten PhD students already enrolled. Interdisciplinary research links exist to computer science, linguistics, and other disciplines. Applications should include a research statement indicating the candidates' interests and plans (which should fall into the area outlined above), university transcripts and a CV. They should also indicate a preference for a primary supervisor matching their plans (Anette Frank, Sebastian Pado, Stefan Riezler, Michael Strube). For more details, see the links below. Please send your application, including all documents, as a single PDF file before **July 31st 2011** to: Anke Sopka & Corinna Schwarz Sekretariat Computerlinguistik sekretariat(a)cl.uni-heidelberg.de Questions should be sent to Sebastian Pado, pado(a)cl.uni-heidelberg.de Links: [1] ICL (http://www.cl.uni-heidelberg.de) [2] HITS (http://www.h-its.org/nlp) [3] Research Initiative Discourse Semantics http://semproc.cl.uni-heidelberg.de/discourse-semantics/ [4] Graduate Program Semantic Processing http://semproc.cl.uni-heidelberg.de [5] Heidelberg Graduate School in Mathematical and Computational Methods for the Sciences http://www.mathcomp.uni-heidelberg.de/ -- Sebastian Pado pado(a)cl.uni-heidelberg.de Institut für Computerlinguistik www.cl.uni-heidelberg.de/~pado Universität Heidelberg Tel. 06221 - 54 3591 Im Neuenheimer Feld 325, 69120 HD Fax 06221 - 54 3242 -- Gary Green
