Walter Daelemans
Walter Daelemans (born June 3, 1960) is professor in computational linguistics at the University of Antwerp. He is also a research director of the Computational Linguistics and Psycholinguistics Research Center (CLiPS). Daelemans holds a Ph.D. from the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven. Daelemans pioneered the use of machine learning techniques, especially memory-based learning, in natural language processing in Europe in the early 1990s. Together with Antal van den Bosch he wrote the book Memory-Based Language Processing and developed the software package TiMBL.

Computational Linguistics
Computational linguistics is an Interdisciplinarity, interdisciplinary field concerned with the computational modelling of natural language, as well as the study of appropriate computational approaches to linguistic questions. In general, computational linguistics draws upon linguistics, computer science, artificial intelligence, mathematics, logic, philosophy, cognitive science, cognitive psychology, psycholinguistics, anthropology and neuroscience, among others. Sub-fields and related areas Traditionally, computational linguistics emerged as an area of artificial intelligence performed by computer scientists who had specialized in the application of computers to the processing of a natural language. With the formation of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL) and the establishment of independent conference series, the field consolidated during the 1970s and 1980s. The Association for Computational Linguistics defines computational linguistics as: The term "comp ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Antal Van Den Bosch
Antal P.J. van den Bosch (born 5 May 1969) is a Dutch-language researcher. He has been director of the Meertens Institute since January 2017. He previously was a professor at Tilburg University and Radboud University Nijmegen. Career Van den Bosch was born in Made on 5 May 1969. He studied language and literature, with a focus on language and informatica, at Tilburg University. Van den Bosch obtained his master's degree in 1992. In 1997 he obtained his title of doctor cum laude at Maastricht University with a dissertation titled: ''Learning to pronounce written words. A study in inductive language learning''. Van den Bosch then returned to Tilburg University, where from 1997 to 2001 he was a postdoc. Between 2001 and 2008 he was university lecturer. In 2008 he was named professor of memory, language and meaning. Van den Bosch moved to the Radboud University Nijmegen in 2011, where he became professor of Example-based language modelling. He became director of the Meertens Institute ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

1960 Births
Year 196 ( CXCVI) was a leap year starting on Thursday (link will display the full calendar) of the Julian calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Dexter and Messalla (or, less frequently, year 949 ''Ab urbe condita''). The denomination 196 for this year has been used since the early medieval period, when the Anno Domini calendar era became the prevalent method in Europe for naming years. Events By place Roman Empire * Emperor Septimius Severus attempts to assassinate Clodius Albinus but fails, causing Albinus to retaliate militarily. * Emperor Septimius Severus captures and sacks Byzantium; the city is rebuilt and regains its previous prosperity. * In order to assure the support of the Roman legion in Germany on his march to Rome, Clodius Albinus is declared Augustus by his army while crossing Gaul. * Hadrian's wall in Britain is partially destroyed.

Association For Computational Linguistics
The Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL) is a scientific and professional organization for people working on natural language processing. Its namesake conference is one of the primary high impact conferences for natural language processing research, along with EMNLP. The conference is held each summer in locations where significant computational linguistics research is carried out. It was founded in 1962, originally named the Association for Machine Translation and Computational Linguistics (AMTCL). It became the ACL in 1968. The ACL has a European ( EACL), a North American (NAACL), and an Asian (AACL) chapter. History The ACL was founded in 1962 as the Association for Machine Translation and Computational Linguistics (AMTCL). The initial membership was about 100. In 1965 the AMTCL took over the journal ''Mechanical Translation and Computational Linguistics''. This journal was succeeded by many other journals: ''American Journal of Computational Linguistics'' (1974— ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Natural Language Processing
Natural language processing (NLP) is an interdisciplinary subfield of linguistics, computer science, and artificial intelligence concerned with the interactions between computers and human language, in particular how to program computers to process and analyze large amounts of natural language data. The goal is a computer capable of "understanding" the contents of documents, including the contextual nuances of the language within them. The technology can then accurately extract information and insights contained in the documents as well as categorize and organize the documents themselves. Challenges in natural language processing frequently involve speech recognition, natural-language understanding, and natural-language generation. History Natural language processing has its roots in the 1950s. Already in 1950, Alan Turing published an article titled "Computing Machinery and Intelligence" which proposed what is now called the Turing test as a criterion of intelligence, t ...
