Focus in Computational Linguistics and Natural Language Processing (Major) - ASFOC1689M

(4.0 credits)

The Focus in Computational Linguistics and Natural Language Processing (Major) has the same set of requirements as the Focus in Computational Linguistics and Natural Language Processing (Specialist).

How can we build and analyze systems that enable users to communicate with computers using human language (also called natural language) and automatically process the vast amounts of data on the web available in the form of text? The focus covers appropriate material on natural language interfaces, as well as tools such as document summarization, intelligent search over the web, and so on. Students considering this focus are encouraged to consider a Major in Linguistics.
