教育目標

Corpus Linguistics (CL) is a scientific method of language analysis using electronic tools. It requires knowledge of linguistic theories, quantitative statistics and data processing. Natural Language Processing (NLP), combining the power of artificial intelligence, computational linguistics and computer science, could help computers read text by simulating the human ability to understand language. The application of methodologies of NLP has led to advances in fields such as lexicography or corpus linguistics, descriptive grammar, and language teaching and learning. In other words, NLP is not only about mathematics, but also about linguistics. Meanwhile, corpora play an essential role in a wide range of linguistic investigations as well as NLP research. This course aims to help students understand the importance and trends of Corpus Linguistics and Natural Language Processing fields. In addition to providing an overview of both the theoretical foundation of Corpus Linguistics and the fundamental methods of Natural Language Processing (NLP), this cross disciplinary course places more emphasis on hands-on learning. Students will be introduced existing major corpora, software packages and analyzing methodologies. Students will learn to examine practical examples by using some of the most common techniques in corpus analysis. Importantly, students will learn some basic computer programming skills. Eventually, students will have opportunities to build their own corpora using NLP methods as well as practically apply corpora in language analysis and learning.
