This is the main page of the course Natural Language Processing 2 offered at the University of Amsterdam.

Content

This course, which builds on NLP I, is about statistical learning for structure prediction problems. We will concentrate on machine translation as a good example of an NLP problem that encompasses a wide set of computational linguistic tasks such as parsing, morphology and semantics.

Format

This is a research-oriented course where we have lectures, labs, and project assignments. We supply reading material (either research papers or tutorials) for lectures as well as a list of pointers for further reading.

Projects

We will have 2 project assignments: students work in groups (3 members). Projects will be assessed on the basis of technical reports.

Grades

The grades are: project 1 50% and project 2 50%.
