Description:
University researcher Roman Yangarber has applied for the title of docent at the Department and will give a public demonstration lecture on Tuesday 23 February at 2:15 pm at Exactum B119. The title of the lecture is "Morphological analysis in NLP"
Welcome all!
Summary:
In natural language processing (NLP), most tasks require morphological
analysis. This means understanding how a word is made up of its components.
For example, we might analyze in English "over+perform+ed", or in Finnish
"talo+ssa+ni+kin". In this lecture we cover classic methods for handling
morphology: computing how words are made up of "morphs" -- the smallest units
that carry semantic or functional information.
