It is suitable for many -natural language processing tasks, in particular, -</P> -<UL> -<LI>multilingual applications -<LI>systems where grammar-based components are needed for e.g. - parsing, translation, or speech recognition -</UL> - -<P> -The goal of the course is to develop an understanding of GF and -practical skills in using it. -</P> -<H1>Contents</H1> -<P> -The course consists of two modules. The first module is a one-week -intensive course (during the first intensive week of GSLT), which -is as such usable as a one-week intensive course for doctoral studies, -if completed with a small course project. -</P> -<P> -The second module is a larger programming project, written -by each student (possibly working in groups) during the Autumn term. -The projects are discussed during the second intensive week of GSLT -(see <A HREF="http://www.gslt.hum.gu.se/courses/schedule.html">schedule</A>), -and presented at a date that will be set later. -</P> -<P> -The first module goes through the basics of GF, including -</P> -<UL> -<LI>using the GF programming language -<LI>writing multilingual grammars -<LI>using the - <A HREF="http://www.cs.chalmers.se/~aarne/GF/lib/resource-1.0/doc/">GF resource grammar library</A> -<LI>generating speech recognition systems from GF grammars -<LI>using embedded grammars as components of software systems -</UL> - -<P> -The lectures follow a draft of GF book. It contains a heavily updated -version os the -<A HREF="http://www.cs.chalmers.se/~aarne/GF/doc/tutorial/gf-tutorial2.html">GF Tutorial</A>; -thus the on-line tutorial is not adequate for this course. To get the course -book, join the course mailing list. -</P> -<P> -Those who just want to do the first module will write a simple application -as their course work during and after the first intensive week. -</P> -<P> -Those who continue with the second module will choose a more substantial -project. Possible topics are -</P> -<UL> -<LI>building a dialogue system by using GF -<LI>implementing a multilingual document generator -<LI>experimenting with synthetized multilingual tree banks -<LI>extending the GF resource grammar library -</UL> - -<H1>Prerequisites</H1> -<P> -Experience in programming. No earlier natural language processing -or functional programming experience is necessary. -</P> -<P> -The course is thus suitable both for GSLT and NGSLT students, -and for graduate students in computer science. -</P> -<P> -We will in particular welcome students from the Baltic countries -who wish to build resources for their own language in GF. -</P> - -<!-- html code generated by txt2tags 2.3 (http://txt2tags.sf.net) --> -<!-- cmdline: txt2tags gf-course.txt --> -</BODY></HTML> |
