Congratulations to Terry Regier, who has been awarded an honorary doctorate by the University of Gothenburg. On October 18, in connection with that award, a workshop on the "Frontiers of AI and the Cognitive Science of Language" featured Terry and other linguists and cognitive scientists whose work focuses on topics that also drive his research: universals in the world's natural languages; information theoretic efficiency as driving principle in cognitive science; and learning efficient communication.
