Summer Term 2014
Course Description
Approaches developed in the knowledge representation and reasoning (KRR) community typically use data in a very structured form. Natural language processing (NLP) seems a way of removing this constraint. However, the potential interactions between the two fields seem mainly untapped: this course aims at presenting such interactions.
