Natural Language Processing is the automatic analysis of human languages such as English, Korean, and thousands of others analyzed by computer algorithms. Unlike artificially created programming languages where the structure and meaning of programs is easy to encode, human languages provide an interesting challenge, both in terms of its analysis and the learning of language from observations. Covers NLP tasks such as language modeling, machine translation, multilingual processing, information extraction, question answering, and other topics relevant to modern NLP. Students with credit for CMPT 825 or CMPT 413 may not take this course for further credit.
