Julian Grove and Aaron White will co-teach at ESSLLI in Germany
Julian Grove and Aaron White will co-teach a course called Probabilistic Dynamic Semantics from August 4 to August 8, 2025 at European Summer School in Logic, Language and Information (ESSLLI), hosted by the Ruhr University Bochum.
The ESSLLI is a yearly recurring event, which has been organized since 1989. An ESSLLI Summer School provides an interdisciplinary setting in which courses and workshops are offered in logic, linguistics and computer science. Courses (foundational, introductory and advanced) and workshops cover a wide variety of topics within three interdisciplinary areas of interest: language and computation, logic and language, and logic and computation. In addition to the workshops and courses there are usually four evening lectures, given by prominent researchers, on topics that are at the forefront of research in logic, language and computer science, also from wider scientific, historical, and philosophical perspectives. Its relevance to students of artificial intelligence is evident.
The event lasts two full weeks, and is traditionally held in the beginning or midst of August. ESSLLI attracts every year around 400 participants from all parts of Europe, as well as from North and Latin America, and Asia. Participation by people from economically weaker countries is made possible by ESSLLI funding. The ESSLLI has become the main meeting place for young researchers and students in logic, linguistics and computer science to discuss current research and to share knowledge. The event is unique in its interdisciplinary set up, with no equivalents in Europe. It is organized under the auspices of the Association for Logic, Language and Information (FoLLI).
