Ampersand

  • ISSN: 2215-0390
Ampersand: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Language Sciences and Bilingualism is an international, multidisciplinary peer-reviewed journal which offers a highly visible, open access home for original research on bi/multilingual issues. While encouraging interdisciplinary work, the focus of Ampersand is on language use and communication among bi/multilingual individuals and groups. We welcome submissions on the following research topics and their intersection with second languages and/or bilingualism:Bilingualism/multilingualismCorpus- or computational approaches to second+ language acquisitionComputer/technology-mediated language learningDiscourse analysis in bi/multilingual settingsHeritage and minority language learningLanguage maintenance and attritionLanguage planning and policy in bi/multilingual education and/or communitiesPragmatics and language use among bi/multilinguals and language learnersPsycholinguistic approaches to bi/multilingualism and second+ language acquisitionSecond+ language acquisitionSecond+ language reading, writing, and/or literacy developmentSecond+ language teaching and learningSociolinguistic approaches to bi/multilingualism and second+ language acquisitionTranslation and interpreting among bi/multilingualsAmpersand caters to a comprehensive audience, ranging from language researchers, applied linguists, psycholinguists, educators, practitioners, policymakers, to those with a general interest in language sciences. The journal aims to encourage the free exchange of information between researchers by being a forum for the constructive discussion and debate of issues in language sciences.The journal welcomes all types of submissions: traditional 'full' research articles based on empirical work, methodological reports, meta-analyses, short communications, case studies, and literature reviews. Proposals for special issues that reflect current or emerging research trends in any of the coverage areas are also welcome and should be discussed with the Editor-in-Chief ([email protected]).Ampersand is an Open Access (OA) journal. Authors may be eligible for free or discounted OA as part of the Research4Life initiative and Elsevier's OA agreements with institutions around the world.

Cognitive Systems Research

  • ISSN: 1389-0417
  • 5 Year impact factor: 3
  • Impact factor: 2.1
Cognitive Systems Research is dedicated to the study of human-level cognition. As such, it welcomes papers which advance the understanding, design and applications of cognitive and intelligent systems, both natural and artificial.The journal brings together a broad community studying cognition in its many facets in vivo and in silico, across the developmental spectrum, focusing on individual capacities or on entire architectures. It aims to foster debate and integrate ideas, concepts, constructs, theories, models and techniques from across different disciplines and different perspectives on human-level cognition. The scope of interest includes the study of cognitive capacities and architectures - both brain-inspired and non-brain-inspired - and the application of cognitive systems to real-world problems as far as it offers insights relevant for the understanding of cognition.Cognitive Systems Research therefore welcomes mature and cutting-edge research approaching cognition from a systems-oriented perspective, both theoretical and empirically-informed, in the form of original manuscripts, short communications, opinion articles, systematic reviews, and topical survey articles from the fields of Cognitive Science (including Philosophy of Cognitive Science), Artificial Intelligence/Computer Science, Cognitive Robotics, Developmental Science, Psychology, and Neuroscience and Neuromorphic Engineering. Empirical studies will be considered if they are supplemented by theoretical analyses and contributions to theory development and/or computational modelling studies. Note that the journal does not publish clinical and medical papers. We also do not publish pure machine learning papers, e.g. studies proposing variants of classifiers or pure algorithmic improvements that bear no connection to cognitive systems research in the sense above.Additionally, Cognitive Systems Research plays a special role in fostering and promoting the 'BICA Challenge' to create a real-life computational equivalent of the human mind by devoting two special issues to BICA AI (Brain-Inspired Cognitive Architectures for Artificial Intelligence) related topics each year.

Computer Speech and Language

  • ISSN: 0885-2308
  • 5 Year impact factor: 2.8
  • Impact factor: 3.1
An official publication of the International Speech Communication Association (ISCA)Computer Speech & Language publishes reports of original research related to the recognition, understanding, production, coding and mining of speech and language.The speech and language sciences have a long history, but it is only relatively recently that large-scale implementation of and experimentation with complex models of speech and language processing has become feasible. Such research is often carried out somewhat separately by practitioners of artificial intelligence, computer science, electronic engineering, information retrieval, linguistics, phonetics, or psychology.The journal provides a focus for this work, and encourages an interdisciplinary approach to speech and language research and technology. Thus contributions from all of the related fields are welcomed in the form of reports of theoretical or experimental studies, tutorials, reviews, and brief correspondence pertaining to models and their implementation, or reports of fundamental research leading to the improvement of such models.Research Areas IncludeAlgorithms and models for speech recognition and synthesisNatural language processing for speech understanding and generationStatistical computational linguisticsComputational models of discourse and dialogueInformation retrieval, extraction and summarizationSpeaker and language recognitionComputational models of speech production and perceptionSignal processing for speech analysis, enhancement and transformationEvaluation of human and computer system performance
