CSI 5180 - Natural Language Processing

(4 credits)

This course introduces the linguistic, mathematical, and computational fundamentals of natural language processing: the creation of computer programs that model human languages (e.g., English), enabling applications like text categorization, machine translation, and chatbots. Topics include text preprocessing, language modeling, classification, tagging, parsing, semantics, text generation, and modern NLP toolkits. Non-CS majors should have some programming background. Cross-listed with CSI 4180.

Course revisions made after the Graduate Catalog publication date will be posted in the Graduate Catalog Addendum.
