Responsibilities

Student Activity and Responsibility

The students will be responsible for the following:

• With the help of the faculty member, students will do some background
  research in the area of natural language processing and neural networks.
  Students are responsible for reading and understanding papers and texts
  assigned to them by the faculty member.
  
• Develop the neural network tagger using algorithms and techniques
  researched and developed by the faculty member.
  
• Test the tagger and analyze and quantify the results.
  
• Compare the neural network tagger to the statistical tagger.
  
• Publish results at a relevant conference.
  
In addition, students will meet with the faculty member on a weekly basis to discuss the
progress of the project and go over any difficulties that might have arisen.

• Assigning readings to the students to bringing them up to speed on POS
  tagging and neural networks.
  
• Meeting with the students on a weekly basis to explain and discuss any
  complex aspects of the readings.
  
• Designing the neural network tagger.
  
• Aiding the students in coding the tagger.
  
• Analyzing and quantifying the results.
  
• Helping the students publish any results.
