JFL1207H: Advanced Computational Methods for Linguists

This course develops the outcomes of JFL1107H. Students will get theoretically and practically acquainted with a breadth of contemporary computational methods in linguistics (such as word vectors, finite state machines, Gaussian mixture models, parsing algorithms, n-grams, textual association measures, and dimensionality reduction). These methods will be developed in relation to fundamental research topics across a broad range of subfields of linguistics and applied in depth to a specific topic selected by the instructor.
