Description
Computational linguistics is an interdisciplinary field of study that brings linguistics and computer science together. This course introduces students to the main concepts of the field and its real-world applications, including, but not limited to, machine translation and information retrieval. Furthermore, it gives students hands-on experience with using and developing computational linguistics tools such as part-of-speech taggers, morphological analyzers, syntactic parsers, and semantic interpreters. To use and develop such tools, students will learn about regular expressions, programming for text analysis, and machine learning. No prior knowledge of computer science or programming is required for this course.
