Subject: Natural language and text processing
Course: Language engineering
ECTS credits: 6
Language: Croatian, English
Duration: 1 semester
Status: compulsory elective
Method of teaching: 2 lecture hours and 2 hours of seminar
Prerequisite: Introduction to Natural Language Processing course
Assessment: written exam

Course description:
Natural language processing is the automatic analysis of the human language performed by computer algorithms. It is used to transform the one language form into another, but also for parsing the language form into a structured form. Language conversion includes summarization, paraphrasing and language translation, while parsing encompasses the transformation of the unstructured data into structured form. The course topics are: language engineering in the context of the intelligent systems, levels of lexical knowledge, word-based systems (regular expressions, word-based information retrieval, spelling checkers, word structure and dictionary knowledge presentation) and sentence-based systems (grammars, syntactic categories, automatic tagging, sentence parsing).

Course objectives:
Students should get the theoretical and practical knowledge of the main principles in the language engineering which is one of the most important types of the intelligent systems in information era. Students should by the end of the course be able:
a) To recognize the features which distinguish the natural language system from other intelligent systems
b) To show the in depth knowledge of the word-based system as well as of the sentence- based system
c) To show that they understand the difference in approach based on the linguistic rules from the approach based on pure statistics
d) To evaluate the existing systems

Language: Croatian/ English/ French
Duration: 1 semester
Status: elective
Method of teaching: 1 lecture hour – 1 hour of seminar – 2 hours of practical classes
Prerequisite: Syntax Analysis Theory and Application
Assessment: Written report defense

Course description:
Introduction. Programming languages: generations of programming languages, procedural and nonprocedural languages, defining programming languages, languages with properties. Introduction to translation: necessity for translators, translation steps, and types of translators. Lexical analysis: direct lexical analysis, indirect lexical analysis. Syntax analysis of programming languages: recursive top down syntax analysis, syntax analysis managed by the transition table and actions. Translations: interpreters and preprocessors.
Practical classes closely follow the lectures. All theoretical discussions and definitions are further explained with appropriate examples. As an example of a simple programming language, syntax and semantics of Wirth's PL/0 language will be shown. Direct lexical analysis and recursive top down syntax analysis will be shown using the program for computing the real expressions. Examples of interpreter will be shown through the realization of PL/0 language translators. Preprocessor will be shown through the language D (don-D program).
In written reports students are to write a preprocessor for chosen language.

Course objectives:
Basic knowledge of formal languages will be given with special interest in syntax analysis of programming languages and translation theory. Students are expected to independently define the language and possibly design the translator (either interpreter or preprocessor).

Course description:
The term "natural" is related to the language people use in their everyday communication, i.e. Croatian, English, German, etc. opposite to artificial languages, such as programming languages. Natural language processing is related to programmes that in some way use natural language. For instance, it is used for computer interface design, where we give the commands to the computer in natural language. It is also used in knowledge acquisition, information retrieval and machine translation. This course gives the introduction to natural language processing with, focusing on the computer use of the natural language.
Course encompasses syntactic analyses, semantic interpretation and language pragmatics and it demonstrates both the symbolic and statistical approach. The topics are: natural language understanding, morphological processing, lexicon, tagger, converter, parser, word sense disambiguation, deductive approaches to interpretation, machine translation and language acquisition.

Course objectives:
The main objectives are:
a) Teach students the leading trends and systems in natural language processing
b) Make them understand the concepts of morphology, syntax, semantics and pragmatics of the language and that they are able to give the appropriate examples that will illustrate the above mentioned concepts
c) Teach them to recognize the significance of pragmatics for natural language understanding
d) Instruct them to describe the simple system based on logic and demonstrate the difference between the semantic presentation and interpretation of that presentation
e) Make them capable to describe the application based on natural language processing and to show the points of syntactic, semantic and pragmatic processing
f) Teach them at least two methods of handling the pronoun relations with the purpose of understanding the semantic interpretation.
