CSI 4180 - Natural Language Processing

(4)

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 automatic text categorization, machine translation, and chatbots. Topics include text preprocessing, language modeling, classification, tagging, parsing, semantics, discourse and dialog analysis, text generation, and the use of modern NLP toolkits. Non-CS majors should have some programming background. Cross-listed with CSI 5180.
