This course gives systematic introduction of research topics on natural language processing, including morphology, lexicology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics and dialogue. To help the master students understand the natural language processing techniques easily, this course focuses on real applications and systems in course lectures. The following points make this course worth selecting. <span> </span></span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Calibri"> </span></font></p><p><font face="times new roman,times"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Calibri"></span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Calibri">1. This course makes use of the classroom as technologic understanding and discussion and the lab for practicing on real natural language processing algorithms and systems. Students are encouraged to come up with novel ideas in course projects. And three special interest groups will be setup to accomplish three interesting projects. <br></span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Calibri">2. Information presented in this course comes from most recent publications on natural language processing. This is helpful for students to grasp technological core as well as popular trends in this area. <br></span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Calibri">3. This course will be presented in English. On the one hand, master students from oversea are encouraged to attend without special training on Chinese language.<span> </span>On the other hand, this course is also helpful to Chinese native speakers to follow international development of this research area. In course project, they will also be trained on English communication. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Calibri"> </span></font></p><p><font face="times new roman,times"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Calibri"></span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Calibri">This course targets at master students from departments of <strong>computer science</strong>, <strong>automation</strong> and <strong>electronics</strong> who already have theoretical background of <strong>artificial intelligence</strong>. Besides, this course is also very helpful for master students from department of Chinese language whose major is <strong>computation linguistics</strong>. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Calibri"> </span></font></p><p><font face="times new roman,times"><span style="font-size: 12pt;
