The NLP group has a distinctive emphasis on what can be called Language Engineering research, rather than a focus on the properties of representations as such. We do not take that to imply just a concentration on applications, though we like to be practical, but rather an emphasis on solutions to problems through procedures, on the assumption that those procedures often turn out to have interesting theoretical properties as well. Our developing programme in NLP will seek to link to speech, AI, neural net and vision research (within the department) as well as to a range of NLP-related areas under the general aegis of ILASH, such as medical research, speech pathology, and information retrieval. |
