    <p>"Concepts in Action: Representation, Learning, and
      Application" (CARLA) is an international workshop aimed at
      fostering interdisciplinary exchange about research on concepts.
      It
      invites contributions from all fields related to cognitive
      science,
      including (but not limited to) linguistics, artificial
      intelligence,
      psychology, philosophy, logic, and computer science. Although the
      workshop is open for research on any aspect of concepts, there
      exists
      a set of core topics that are of special interest:</p>
    <ul>
      <li>
        <p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><strong>Representation</strong>: <em>How
            can we formally describe and model concepts?</em> </p>
      </li>
      <li>
        <p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><strong>Learning</strong>: <em>Where
            do concepts come from and how are they acquired?</em> </p>
      </li>
      <li>
        <p><strong>Application</strong>: <em>How are concepts used in
            cognitive tasks?</em></p>
      </li>
    </ul>
    <p>This workshop provides an excellent opportunity to present and
      discuss ongoing research on concepts. We invite concept
      researchers
      from all fields related to cognitive science to submit abstracts
      to
      the workshop for oral or poster presentations. </p>
