Computational Linguistics aims at developing models and tools for natural language processing. since it combines methods and techniques from both linguistics, computer science, artificial intelligence and statistics, Computational Linguistics is interdisciplinary in nature. The scope of the discipline is therefore quite broad, and the course focuses on some of its many issues: corpus linguistics, information management, text annotation, automated and assisted translation.
The course aims at providing learners with the basic notions of automatic text processing, knowledge of the mechanisms behind automated translation and quantitative corpus analysis and the skills necessary to work with computer assisted translation.
Students will learn:
the fundamentals of Computational Linguistics and the principles of automated and computer-assisted translation
the principles and techniques for information management
the principles and techniques for text annotation through XML
the skills necessary to work with computer-assisted transaltion and terminology management
Frontal and online lectures and practice
Lessons will be held in the 2nd semester
