Introduction: Cognitive Issues in Natural Language Processing
It aims to bridge interdisciplinary gaps for researchers in both fields, but is incremental as it focuses on synthesizing existing knowledge rather than presenting new findings.
This special issue explores the bidirectional relationship between computational linguistics and cognitive science, addressing how computational language modeling can contribute to cognitive science and how cognitive science influences contemporary computational linguistics.
This special issue is dedicated to get a better picture of the relationships between computational linguistics and cognitive science. It specifically raises two questions: "what is the potential contribution of computational language modeling to cognitive science?" and conversely: "what is the influence of cognitive science in contemporary computational linguistics?"
