We have a ParGram slot on the 21st of July from 9 to 14. So now the usual question ? who wants to present what? Are there any new grammars out there that we can look at and help with? We will have some presentations on our on-going efforts at UD-LFG conversion (and vice versa), but we are open to suggestions.

PaGram Meeting at LFG2022
by Mark-Matthias Zymla 17 May '22

17 May '22

Dear all, I'm happy to announce that we are planning a ParGram meeting at this year's LFG conference. The meeting will take place on *Friday, the 15th of July* in the afternoon. We need some feedback on how many of you are interested in joining the meeting to properly plan this event. One of the main topics of this meeting will be how to expand semantic analysis with ParGram grammars, given the number of semantic resources developed in the past few years. However, if there are other suggestions for topics, they are more than welcome! We will try to incorporate them into our planning. Please let us know whether you want to come and if you wish to participate *in person *or *remotely*. All the best, Mark-Matthias Zymla

Open Rank Position at Konstanz
by Miriam Butt 31 Mar '22

31 Mar '22

Hi All, I am still looking for people at the PostDoc or Doc level to help out with project work and teaching. Attached is the job ad I put on Linguist List — Deadline was for today, but I’m extending it a little to mid April. If you know of anybody or are interested yourself, let me know! Cheers, Miriam ——— Title: Open-rank position available in Computational Linguistics (TVL-13 salary scale) The Computational Linguistics group at the University of Konstanz has open positions. At the postdoctoral level, we have need of teaching as as well as research. Teaching and research could be combined into one postdoctoral position (50% research, 50% teaching) for two years. At the doctoral level we can alternatively offer a 3-year 65% doctoral research position. Our current research projects encompass work on framing, argumentation and the automatic detection of non-canonical questions. We are looking for people interested in combining symbolic with machine learning approaches. We are also particularly looking for researchers with knowledge of Spanish for a project on "Mobilising Inequalities". The project is part of the Excellence Cluster "The Politics of Inequality" (https://www.exc.uni-konstanz.de/en/inequality/). Overall our work involves the identification, analysis and automatic extraction of linguistic cues for NLP applications that support research into how arguments and issues are framed. The non-canonical questions work is part of the FOR 2111 "Questions at the Interfaces" (https://typo.uni-konstanz.de/questionsInterfaces/), argumentation as part of the SPP RATIO (http://ratio.sc.cit-ec.uni-bielefeld.de/projects-phase-2/cuepaq/). Our staff works closely with researchers from Political Science and Visual Analytics, providing interesting and fruitful scope for interdisciplinary and collaborative work. On the teaching side, our popular MA "Speech and Language Processing" requires teaching in the following areas: Machine-Language Processing (overview course) Finite-State Morphology, Corpus Linguistics with Python, Deep Learning with Python, Lexical-Functional Grammar (LFG), Grammar Development (LFG), Computational Semantics. Pre-set syllabi and material exist for all of these courses. A 100% teaching position comes with 8 hours of teaching (equivalent to about 3-4 courses a semester). Positions are available as of April 1, 2022. Requirements: Postdoctoral applicants should have a PhD degree (or equivalent) and applicants at the doctoral level should have an MA degree. Both should be in the areas of computational linguistics or linguistics. The applicants should be well versed in linguistic analysis and possess programming skills. Knowledge of Python is particularly relevant. The University of Konstanz encourages disabled persons to apply. They will be given preference if appropriately qualified (contact +497531/88–4016 und 88-2834). The University of Konstanz is an equal opportunity employer that tries to increase the number of women in research and teaching. The University of Konstanz has been certified as a family-friendly institution by the Hertie Foundation and is committed to further the compatibility of work and family life. The University of Konstanz offers a „Dual Career Couples Program“. Information can be obtained from: http://www.familie.uni-konstanz.de/dual-career/ . Applicants should send a cover letter, a full CV and one sample publication or paper to: miriam.butt(a)uni-konstanz.de **************************************************************** Miriam Butt Department of Linguistics University of Konstanz Fach 184 Tel: +49 7531 88 5109 78457 Konstanz Fax: +49 7531 88 4865 Germany +49 7531 88 5115 miriam.butt(a)uni-konstanz.de https://www.ling.uni-konstanz.de/butt/ He now made a special effort to Indianize his diction with the colonials: they had to realize he had both an axe and an accent to grind.

[XLE] Jürgen Wedekind RIP
by Josef van Genabith 29 Dec '21

29 Dec '21

Jürgen Wedekind RIP It is with great sadness that we hear about the passing of Jürgen Wedekind (1956-2021). Jürgen made seminal contributions to LFG and unification-based grammars, including the use of classical logics in describing feature-based grammars, properties of machine translation and complexity and decidability of generation with feature-based grammars, with a string of publications in the journal of Computational Linguistics (1999, 2012, 2014 and 2020). Jürgen was our colleague at IMS, University of Stuttgart, Germany (1985-1996), a research scientist at the University of Tübingen, Germany (1996-1999), a senior researcher and graduate course director at the Center for Language Technology and the University of Copenhagen, Denmark (1999-2021) and a frequent visiting scholar and consultant at XEROX PARC, California. Jürgen obtained his PhD in 1990, and his Habilitation in 1998. We miss Jürgen as a colleague and a friend. We share our sorrow with Jürgen's family. Anette, Thierry and Josef

restarting ParGram?
by Agnieszka Patejuk 28 Aug '21

28 Aug '21

Hi, I am sending this message to all potentially relevant lists (ParGram, XLE, LFG, ParSem) so as to maximise the chance that it will reach people who are interested in this topic. If you know someone who might be interested but is not subscribed to these lists, please consider letting them know. The question is: who would be interested in restarting ParGram meetings? I am not sure what would be the best way to organise this discussion, so I am suggesting the following: • if you think your answer might be of interest to many people (for instance, it might spark a discussion), please consider replying to the list(s) • if not, please reply only to me – I will later go through the responses and post a summary to the relevant lists. I hope that later we can discuss this topic in more detail with people who have expressed interest. All best, Agnieszka
