Decalog 2007 Proceedings of the 11Th Workshop on the Semantics And Decalog 2007 Proceedings of the 11th Workshop on the Semantics and Pragmatics of Dialogue (SemDial 11) May 30 – June 1, 2007 Rovereto, Italy edited by Ron Artstein Laure Vieu 2 Preface We are happy to present Decalog 2007, the 11th workshop on the Semantics and Pragmatics of Dia- logue, ten years after the inception of the series in 1997. This year’s workshop continues the tradition of presenting high-quality talks and posters on dialogue from a variety of perspectives such as formal semantics and pragmatics, artifical intelligence, computational linguistics, and psycholinguistics. The appeal of the SemDial series is growing – this year we have seen interest from researchers in fields as diverse as language pedagogy, field linguistics, and sociology (unfortunately these people did not submit papers, mostly for technical reasons). We received 32 submissions to the main session, and each was reviewed by two or three experts. We selected 19 talks for oral presentation (of which 17 will be presented); the poster session hosts many of the remaining submissions, together with additional submissions that came in response to a call for late-breaking posters and demos. We are lucky to have four first-rate researchers on discourse and dialogue as invited speakers – Bruno G. Bara, Renato De Mori, Paul Piwek and Ipke Wachsmuth. They represent a broad range of perspectives and disciplines, and together with the accepted talks and posters we hope to have a productive and lively workshop. We are grateful to our reviewers, who invested a lot of time giving very useful feedback, both to the program chairs and to the authors: Jan Alexandersson, Maria Aloni, Nicholas Asher, Anton Benz, Raffaella Bernardi, Patrick Blackburn, Johan Bos, Monica Bucciarelli, Craig Chambers, Marco Colom- betti, Paul Dekker, Raquel Fernández, Ruth Filik, Simon Garrod, Jonathan Ginzburg, Joris Hulstijn, Elsi Kaiser, Alistair Knott, Staffan Larsson, Alex Lascarides, Colin Matheson, Nicolas Maudet, Philippe Muller, Fabio Pianesi, Martin Pickering, Manfred Pinkal, Matthew Purver, Hannes Rieser, Laurent Rous- sarie, David Schlangen, Amanda Stent, Matthew Stone, Enric Vallduvi, and Henk Zeevat. This workshop would not have been possible without the generous support of CIMeC – the Center For Mind/Brain Sciences at the University of Trento; LUNA – the EU-funded project on Spoken Language Understanding in Multilingual Communication Systems; and ILIKS – the Interdisciplinary Laboratory on Interacting Knowledge Systems. Many thanks to the local organization team in Rovereto, headed by Massimo Poesio and Alessia La Micela, who have invested an enormous amount of work and preparations to have the workshop run smoothly.

Bara Center for Cognitive Science University and Polytechnic of Turin [email protected] Keyword: communication; pragmatics; intention; social brain. Human beings are genetically designed in order to maximize their capacity for social interaction. At birth they already possess complex primitives (like sharedness) which allow them to master communication far beyond other animals’ ability. The most important primitive for communication is communicative intention, which may be formally defined (Bara, 2007) as follows: CINTA,B p = INTA SharedB,A (p ∧ CINTA,B p) A has the communicative intention that p towards B (CINTAB p) when A intends (INTA) that the following two facts be shared by B and herself (SharedBA): that p, and that she intended to communicate to B that p (CINTAB p). The developmental evidence of communicative intention as primitive is that 9-months-old children perform communication acts like declarative pointing. I.e., they are able to express the intention of sharing an action/object between the self and the other (Tomasello et al., 2005). The neuroimaging evidence consists in a series of fMRI experiments, where we demonstrated that the anterior paracingulate cortex is not necessarily involved in the understanding of other people’s intentions per se, but primarily in the understanding of the intentions of people involved in social interaction (Walter et al., 2004). Moreover, this brain region showed activation when a represented intention implies social interaction and therefore had not yet actually occurred. This result suggests that the anterior paracingulate cortex is also involved in our ability to predict future intentional social interaction, based on an isolated agent’s behaviour. We conclude that distinct areas of the neural system underlying theory of mind are specialized in processing distinct classes of intentions (Ciaramidaro et al., 2007), among which there
