[beasiswa] (info) Natural Language Processing

 

Institution/Organization: University of Edinburgh Department: Institute for Language, Cognition and Computation Web Address: http://www.ilcc.inf.ed.ac.uk/   Level: PhD   Duties: Research   Specialty Areas: Cognitive Science; Computational Linguistics; Psycholinguistics Natural Language Processing   Description:   PHD studentship in natural language processing   Institute for Language, Cognition and Computation School of Informatics University of Edinburgh   The Institute for Language, Cognition and Computation (ILCC) at the University of Edinburgh invites applications for a three-year PhD Studentship starting in academic year 2011/12. ILCC is dedicated to The pursuit of basic and applied research on computational approaches To language, communication and cognition.   The studentship is associated with the EPSRC project 'An Integrated Model of Syntactic and Semantic Prediction in Human Language Processing.' The aim of this project is to develop a model that Combines probabilistic incremental parsing with compositional Distributional semantics in order to achieve a broad-coverage account Of human language processing that can simulate reading time data. The Project will also apply this model to NLP tasks such as text Simplification.   The student will be supervised by Dr. Frank Keller and Dr. Mirella Lapata, and will work on a topic drawn from following research areas:   - probabilistic parsing, including incremental parsing, unsupervised   Parsing, and crosslinguistic parsing   - distributional models of semantics, including compositional and   Syntax-aware vector-space models and topic models   - models of human language processing, including models that integrate   Syntactic and semantic processing   - models of eye-tracking data in reading, including applications such   As text simplification   The successful candidate will have a good honors degree or equivalent In computational linguistics, artificial intelligence, computer Science, or a related discipline. He/she will have strong programming Skills and previous experience in natural language processing, e.g., In parsing, distributional semantics, or probabilistic modeling.   The studentship covers maintenance at the research council rate of Around GBP 13 500 per year, plus tuition fees at the EU/UK rate. Applications are restricted to UK/eu citizens. The start date of the Studentship is flexible, but can be no earlier than September 1, 2011.   If you have further questions, please contact Dr. Frank Keller (keller@inf.ed.ac.uk) or Dr. Mirella Lapata (mlap@inf.ed.ac.uk). To Apply, please follow the instructions at:   http://www.ed.ac.uk/schools-departments/informatics/postgraduate/apply/   As your research area, please select 'Institute of Communicating and Collaborative Systems'. On the application form under 'Research Project', please state 'EPSRC Studentship: SynSem'.   IMPORTANT: After submitting your application through the website, Please email your applicant number to keller@inf.ed.ac.uk.   Application deadline: August 1, 2011.   Applications received after the deadline may be considered, but this Cannot be guaranteed.   Application Deadline: 01-Aug-2011   Web Address for Applications: http://www.ed.ac.uk/schools-departments/informatics/postgraduate/apply/   Contact Information:   Dr. Frank Keller   Keller@Inf.Ed.ac.UK
