Course Zoom link Gradescope entry code 74ENE4 Course OutlineLanguage technologies using AI and NLP are at work in our daily lives in tasks ranging from grammatical error correction to online language translation to online question answering. The intricacies of natural language we use as part of our everyday activities pose distinct challenges for computers that process unstructured text in the absence of real-word context or intent. In this course, we understand and analyze classical and recent computational models for addressing these challenges. The course will be centered around the following broad themes each over 5 weeks.
We cover each of these themes in depth, discussing the core aspect of the theme via lectures and supplementing this with discussions using key papers on each topic. Students are expected to contribute to the discussion by weekly readings and presentations of the research papers. Course Objectives
