The International Quantitative Linguistics Association and Masaryk University, Faculty of Arts, invites the submission of abstracts for the 13th International Quantitative Linguistics Conference QUALICO 2025, to be held in Brno, Czechia, June 26-28, 2025. TOPICS All contributions relating to quantitative linguistics and text analysis are welcome. We particularly encourage submissions on: - Descriptions and analysis of all aspects of language and text phenomena, insofar as they use quantitative mathematical methods (probability theory, stochastic processes, differential and difference equations, multidimensional analysis, fuzzy logic and set theory, function theory, etc.). - Development of mathematical and/or statistical concepts and methods which contribute to theoretical understanding of language phenomena. - Applications of methods, models, or findings from quantitative linguistics to problems of natural language processing, text classification, stylistics, authorship attribution, text mining, language complexity, and complex network analysis. - Epistemological issues relevant to quantitative linguistics such as explanation of language and text phenomena, contributions to theory construction, systems theory, philosophy of science. - Application of theories and methods of quantitative linguistics to the analysis of text generated by AI and Large Language Models (LLM). Please note that the use of mathematical and statistical concepts and methods or their computational implementation on an ad hoc basis, without placing them in a linguistic context, does not in itself qualify an abstract for acceptance at the conference.
MULTIPLE WORKS BY THE SAME AUTHOR The maximum number of submissions by the same author or co-author is two papers. Submissions exceeding this threshold will be automatically deleted without notification.
SUBMISSION OF ABSTRACTS Abstracts should be in English and include keywords, author affiliations, and references. They should not exceed 250 words. The requested format for submission is plain text .txt. Each paper will be allotted 30 minutes (20 minutes for presentation and 10 minutes for discussion). There will also be a poster session (accepted formats A0, A1 or similar). Abstracts can be submitted via the Oxford Abstracts system.
