See you in 2025!
The Third Workshop on Processing and Evaluating Event Representations (PEER2024) will be held on March 29, 2024 at Cornell University. The workshop aims to bring together researchers working on computational models of incremental language understanding with researchers working on event semantics from both a computational and experimental perspective. Presentations will focus on a variety of questions in this domain: (a) what symbolic and continuous representations are necessary for capturing different aspects of linguistic meaning?; (b) how do we determine the psycholinguistic validity of such representations to better understand incremental processing in humans?; and (c) how might the psycholinguistically valid representations be deployed during incremental language processing? Special focus is placed on meaning representations that take the concept of an event as a core organizing principle.
The workshop is sponsored by the Central New York Humanities Corridor. Its broader goals are to build collaborations among researchers in Western and Central New York and to provide a platform for giving feedback to student researchers.

Land Acknowledgement
This land acknowledgement is a first step in explicitly recognizing sovereignty and the ongoing history of dispossession of Indigenous peoples.
Since location is core to our identity, in name and in practice, the CNY Humanities Corridor acknowledges, with respect, that our 11-institution consortium spans the ancestral lands and waterways of the Haudenosaunee people. Corridor partnerships take place on lands of the nations of the sovereign Haudenosaunee Confederacy, founded at least 1,000 years ago at Onondaga Lake. Central New York remains home to the Haudenosaunee: we acknowledge the ongoing history of dispossession across the Confederacy, and are grateful to live, work, and share ideas on these lands.
