End of Project Workshop - 24th September 2021

About

Disagreements And Language Interpretation (DALI)
http://www.dali-ambiguity.org
is a 5-year ERC project collecting large numbers of examples of disagreements in language interpretation (and in particular, anaphoric interpretation) through Games-With-A-Purpose, turning these data into freely available resources for the community such as the Phrase Detectives and DALI corpora
https://github.com/dali-ambiguity
analyzing the data using probabilistic inference methods and behavioral methods, and using them to train computational models for the interpretation of anaphora and other linguistic phenomena.

As the project will end at the end of January 2022, we will hold a workshop on September 24th to summarize its results.

The workshop will be hold online, but there will also be the opportunity for a limited number of people to attend in physical presence at Queen Mary University.
