NLP & Speech
The Google PhD Fellowship Program has supported exceptional graduate students pioneering research in computer science and related fields, with the goal of supporting the next generation of scientists focused on critical foundational science.
A driving force in the field of natural language processing, Kathleen McKeown will receive this year’s Faculty Mentoring Award bestowed at University Commencement.
Research papers from the Natural Language Processing and Speech groups have been accepted to the 2021 Annual Conference of the North American Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics (NAACL-HLT 2021).
About
The Speech and Natural Language Processing groups do fundamental work in language understanding and generation with applications to a wide variety of topics, including summarization, argumentation, persuasion, sentiment, detecting deceptive, emotional and charismatic speech, text-to-speech synthesis, analysis of social media to detect mental illness, abusive language, and radicalization.
The groups collaborate closely on many research projects with each other, with language faculty in other universities, and with Columbia faculty in other disciplines. They also mentor a very large number of master’s and undergraduate research project students who participate in their research each semester. They have regular talks for faculty, students, and the larger New York area community.
