The course is aimed for computer
scientists to develop an understanding of linguistics
and how it may be modeled and processed using
computational techniques. The course will focus on
modeling words and phrases, with some reference to
higher structures, including meaning. Challenges
associated with multilingual text processing and their
solutions will also be addressed. In addition, the
disciplines of morphology, syntax and semantics will be
introduced to provide the requisite background but will
not be covered in depth. End-user applications will be
covered as well, to put the contents of the course into
real perspective. Processing will be focused on English
and Urdu, though references to other languages will also
be made where necessary. |
