Description
Advanced Computational Methods for Linguists develops the outcomes of JFL1107H (Computational Methods for Linguists). In the first half of the course, students will get theoretically and practically acquainted with a breadth of contemporary computational methods in linguistics, such as word vectors, finite state machines, Gaussian mixture models, parsing algorithms, n-grams and textual association measures, and dimensionality reduction. These methods will be developed in relation to fundamental research topics in linguistics: syntax, semantics, phonetics, phonology, morphology, sociolinguistics, and language acquisition. Students will go in depth in the second half of the course with methods surrounding a topic selected by the instructor (for instance: studying lexical semantic variation, parsing algorithms in cognitive modeling, first and second-language speech perception).
