795.04 Clippers: The computational linguistics discussion group U G 1
This is a weekly forum open to anyone with an interest in computational linguistics. We plan a varied schedule of work in progress presentations and general discussion. We're aiming to keep things accessible to anyone with a basic understanding of linguistics. Computational linguists or potential computational linguists should attend on a regular basis and may sign up for 1 hour of credit (possibly 2 if presenting). Others (including undergraduates) are welcome to drop in on an ad hoc basis.
The instigators are the computational linguistics and language technology (CLLT) faculty (Brew, Dennis, Fosler-Lussier, Petrov, White). We're calling it Clippers, following the example of the other spirited discussion groups in our department: Changelings, Phonies, Pragmatics, the Psycholinguistics Lab Meeting, So Mean and Synners. If you want you can think of the name as a quasi-acronym for Computational Linguistics and Information Processing — or freely associate with man-made artefacts, nature, and Columbus.
