Scientific events organisation

General chair, scientific chair

• Maxime Amblard organized the workshop (In)Cohérence du discours 3, with the SLAM project (Schizophrenia and Language: Analysis and Modeling).

The adopted modeling paradigm is that of formal semantics, which falls within the scope of both linguistics and logic while also making ties to the philosophy of language.

• Maxime Amblard co-organized with Karen Fort and Gilles Adda the first workshop ETeRNAL about ethics in natural language processing.
