Course Syllabus

Abstract

The course is aimed at mastering the basics of natural language processing (NLP), a dynamic interdisciplinary field. The course covers the methods and approaches used in many real NLP applications such as language modeling, text classification, sentiment analysis, generalization, and machine translation. Students taking the course will not only use some of the existing NLP libraries and software packages, but will also learn about the principles behind their design and about the mathematical models that underlie modern computational linguistics. The course also involves performing practical tasks in Python programming and experimenting with texts written in English and Russian. Prerequisites are programming skills in python, general knowledge of linguistics
