Our academics working in the field of natural language processing (NLP) focus on system development, which allows computers to communicate with people using everyday language. They investigate the development of systems that convert information from the computer's database into readable or audible human language and vice versa.
These systems also enable sophisticated tasks such as inter-language translation, semantic understanding, text summarization, and holding a dialog. Some of the core applications of NLP algorithms include interactive voice response applications, automated translators, digital personal assistants (for example Siri, Cortana, Alexa), chatbots, and smart word processors.
The university offers Ph.D. and master's degrees in NLP with exceptionally advanced courses and outcomes.
