Learning outcomes |
To know the most relevant foundations in the field of Computational Linguistics (CL), in terms of its aspects: morphological, syntactic, semantic and pragmatic, with special emphasis on the semantic and pragmatic levels. Know the main approaches, techniques, and resources associated with CL. Skills: Have the ability to identify the relevance of CL in general problems and use it for improvement. For example, improving the human-machine interaction of a system through the use of CL. Competences: At the end, the student should have the ability to take an open CL problem, design and implement an experimental plan that combines knowledge, resources, and data, aiming for new results and subsequent scientific dissemination. The student should also be able to apply the concepts of CL, as well as their most relevant techniques and resources, to any scientific or industrial problem, aiming their resolution or improvement.
