Image Schema Day 3 - 2016

We are happy to announce that this year The Image schema day (previously an invite-only event) opens its doors to all researchers interested in image schemas to submit and participate in the workshop!

The workshop will take place at the third edition of the Joint Ontology Workshops (JOWO) in which a series of different workshops meets for three days in the South Tyrollean alps to discuss innovative and state of the art research.

Jamie MacBeth, Dagmar Gromann and Maria M. Hedblom
Image Schemas and Conceptual Dependency Primitives: A Comparison

Cliff O'Reilly and Randy Harris

Due to the comparatively low number of accepted papers, the workshop will merge together with Shapes 4.0 during JOWO, to encourage a larger group of participants in the audience.
