Abstract

Welcome to the NAACL-HLT 2010 Workshop on Computational Neurolinguistics. This is the first workshop to be held on this emerging topic, which integrates recent advances in computational linguistics and cognitive neuroscience with the latest methods from machine learning. This new field promises to aid in the further development of cognitively plausible theories of language, to provide a third empirical basis as a benchmark for computational linguistics (besides corpora, and data elicited from informants), and to enrich the models of language used in neuroscience with the precision and breadth that computational linguistic methods provide. More ambitious blue-sky applications being pursued include language-based brain-computer interfaces, parsing of sentential structure from recordings of neural activity during language processing, and the derivation of language resources from neuroimaging data.
