Description

This course covers a broad range of topics relating to natural language processing (NLP) and computational linguistics, ranging from traditional linguistically oriented tasks such as syntactic parsing and information extraction to modern deep learning-based NLP using Transformers (e.g., BERT, GPT-3). It will cover recent techniques such as for explainable AI and data augmentation, as well as applications such as conversational agents, machine translation, and sentiment analysis.

Requirements

This course requires solid programming skills as well as high school-level mathematics (especially basic linear algebra and probability theory).
 

Learning

Lecture with integrated practical exercises.

This course will mostly take place in person. However, in the first 2 weeks, the lectures will be online on Zoom. Please join our Moodle instance for login details.
