Description

As natural language processing spans many different disciplines, it is sometimes difficult to understand the contributions and the challenges that each of them presents. This book explores the special relationship between natural language processing and cognitive science, and the contribution of computer science to these two fields. It is based on the recent research papers submitted at the international workshops of Natural Language and Cognitive Science (NLPCS) which was launched in 2004 in an effort to bring together natural language researchers, computer scientists, and cognitive and linguistic scientists to collaborate together and advance research in natural language processing.
The chapters cover areas related to language understanding, language generation, word association, word sense disambiguation, word predictability, text production and authorship attribution. This book will be relevant to students and researchers interested in the interdisciplinary nature of language processing.

Key Features

  • Discusses the problems and issues that researchers face, providing an opportunity for developers of NLP systems to learn from cognitive scientists, cognitive linguistics and neurolinguistics
  • Provides a valuable opportunity to link the study of natural language processing to the understanding of the cognitive processes of the brain

Readership

Researchers and postgraduate students, and Industrialists working in NLP

Reviews

"All in all, for a computer scientist specializing in areas like computational linguistics, natural language processing, robotics, chatbots, navigation systems, speech recognition, and perhaps processing of sign languages, from an interdisciplinary point of view, this is an excellent starting point." --Computer Reviews
