Semantic computing tackles the computational understanding of meanings of contents and their machine readable representation. It refers to a set of methods for machines to acquire common-sense and linguistic knowledge. This introductory course covers a broad overview of fundamental theories in semantic computing, such as an introduction to Natural Language Processing (NLP), and a basic practical skill set of machine learning methods for natural language understanding, such as word embeddings, Support Vector Machines (SVM), and a very brief introduction to ontology learning from text.

The lecture will take place each Monday as follows with the first lecture on 9 April 2018.

  • Monday, 2.50 -- 4.20 pm (lecture), Room APB/E005
  • Monday, 4.40 -- 6.10 pm (tutorial), Room PC-Pool APB-E069


Lecture free periods are:

  • Monday, 7 May
  • Monday, 21 May (Pentecost)
