COMP248: Language Technology

This unit provides a broad introduction to the kinds of applications that are developed within the field of Natural Language Processing, and the techniques and algorithms required to build these applications. Students acquire both theoretical background and practical experience in processing the syntax and semantics of natural language. The practical skills gained are put to use in the development of a chatterbot, a Prolog-based natural-language system, and a speech application.
