  2. Words, Words, Words • So far we have covered methods that largely operate on tokens. • Tokenizing text • Stemming words and determining lemmas • POS-tagging • Language models based on n-gram frequencies CSC 9010: Special Topics, Natural Language Processing. Spring, 2005. Matuszek & Papalaskari

  3. Every time I fire a linguist, my performance goes up1 • None of this has much of what could be considered "linguistic" knowledge or "understanding". • No parsing • Not much domain knowledge o "meaning" • For the next two sections of the course we will talk extensively about syntax and semantics. 1. Hirschberg, Julia. 1998. "Every time I fire a linguist, my performance goes up," and other myths of the statistical natural language processing revolution.

  4. What's In a Word? • For this lab, we will focus on some of the things that can be done with application of the techniques we have already studied. • Format will be • Try a demo • Discuss what techniques were needed to implement it • Discuss some of what would be needed to improve it CSC 9010: Special Topics, Natural Language Processing. Spring, 2005. Matuszek & Papalaskari
