Computational Linguist's Toolkit 3201-LST-CLT

The aim of this course is to follow the thread of preceding courses
related to data/text processing, further develop acquired skills and
explore their practical applications in specific aspects of work of a
Computational Linguist, as well as Linguistic Projects
Coordinator/Manager.
Course participants will learn about the role Computational Linguist
plays in the development of speech and language-related
technologies and products. They will be able to apply the skills
related to scripting, creating regular expressions, analyzing text
and audio data and develop them towards being able to create,
verify, annotate or evaluate language data as wanted on the
constantly expanding market of voice and language technology-
related products, language AI as well as in research.
Working with computational linguistics requires not only various
skills related to data processing, but also being familiar with project
management and task planning tools and approaches. We will
briefly go through main methodologies applied in such projects and
tools that facilitate planning, execution, good communication within
teams and ways to automate processes that are repetitive.
We will also take a peek into some of the most satisfying aspects
of computational linguistics, such as having actual impact on the
final result in a product or in making research possible.
