Dear Colleagues, On behalf of the organizing committee of the Special Session on "Computing with Words" to be organized within the 2012 IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence (WCCI 2012), Brisbane, Australia, It is our great pleasure to invite you to submit your papers to this interesting Special Session, *please remember to choose S17 Computing with Words as the main topic of your paper. * *Paper Submission Deadline has been extended to Jan 18, 2012 (23:59 EST) - The Paper Submission System will close straight after that, no more extensions will be given.*
Aim of the session The term Computing with words (CW or CWW or CWP) was introduced by Lotfi Zadeh in 1996, then expanded to the Computational Theory of Perceptions (CTP) in 2000, to Precisiated Natural Language (PNL) in 2004, and more recently to Computation with Information Described in Natural Language (NL-Computation) in 2007. The aims of this special session are to highlight recent advances on the theory and applications of CWW, to identify future research directions, and to publicize CWW to a wider audience. The special session will be a forum to exchange ideas, approaches, problems and solutions, and to share, discuss and present the latest research results. Keywords: Computing with Words, Computing with Natural Language, Grounding of words, Semantic Computing. Scope of the session Fuzzy-Logic-Based Computational Semantics of Natural Languages. Algorithms and methods for learning uses of words by interaction with users. Significant experiments and/or real world applications of CWW. Theoretical studies of CWW paradigms and algorithms. Development of new CWW paradigms and algorithms. Validation of CWW paradigms. Time Series Summarization. Text, graph and web summaries. Linking pictures and textual descriptions. Control models based on linguistic commands. Operational semantics for formal models of linguistic concepts. Control models based on linguistic commands. Grounding of words in perceptions and actions. Development of new (fuzzy) models for representing words, connectives and sentences. Organizers Sergio Guadarrama, University of California, Berkeley Dongrui Wu, GE Global Research.
