Computational Linguistics is a field which is concerned with analyzing,
generating, and modeling natural language automatically. Many of us
use Natural Language Processing (NLP) systems without even realizing
it. For example, when we type something on the computer we can allow a
proof reading program to tell us whether there are any spelling
mistakes and whether our text is gramatically correct. NLP is also
involved in the work search engines do while looking for relevant
websites and documents on the internet. Speech recognition programs
are quite useful as well, not to mention translation software.
At the University of Konstanz we conduct research in computational
linguistics as well as teach it. For further information please see
the links on Teaching and Projects.
