This award provides funding for the travel and accommodation expenses for graduate students in computational linguistics whose papers have been selected for presentation at the Sixth International Conference on Generative Approaches to the Lexicon (GL2013) conference in Pisa, Italy, in September 2013. The overall goal of the GL conferences is to bring together researchers in theoretical and computational linguistics, computer science, cognitive science, and lexicography to explore the problem of semantic compositionality -- how the meaning of expressions in natural languages derives from the structure of the lexicon, or dictionary, of semantic formatives (words or idiomatic multi-word expressions) in a natural language. GL2013 specifically aims at exploring the relation and potential synergies between generative approaches, which assume that semantic formatives are structured objects, and distributional semantics, whose proponents typically assume that they are internally unstructured and analyze their semantic contribution by means of their distribution in linguistic contexts. This award enables talented students working on computational semantics to interact with professionals in a variety of fields and perspectives related to that domain, and to present their work in a major international venue. This in turn will help to nurture a lasting interest in the upcoming generation of computational researchers in what is likely to remain a major area of interdisciplinary study for a very long time.

该奖项为计算语言学研究生的差旅费和住宿费提供资金，这些研究生的论文被选为2013年9月在意大利比萨举行的第六届词典生成方法国际会议（GL 2013）上的演讲。GL会议的总体目标是将理论和计算语言学，计算机科学，认知科学和词典学的研究人员聚集在一起，探索语义组合性问题-自然语言中表达的含义如何从自然语言中语义形成词（单词或惯用多词表达）的词典或词典的结构中获得。GL 2013特别旨在探索生成方法之间的关系和潜在的协同作用，假设语义形成物是结构化的对象，而分布式语义学的支持者通常假设它们内部是非结构化的，并通过它们在语言环境中的分布来分析它们的语义贡献。该奖项使有才华的学生在计算语义工作与专业人士在各种领域和相关的领域的观点进行互动，并在一个主要的国际场所展示他们的工作。这反过来将有助于培养下一代计算研究人员的持久兴趣，这可能在很长一段时间内仍然是跨学科研究的主要领域。
