Prerequisite: There are no prerequisites to take this course.
I. COURSE OVERVIEW:
This course is study of computing systems that can process, understand, or communicate in human language. The
primary focus of the course will be on understanding various NLP tasks and algorithms for effectively solving
these problems, and methods for evaluating their performance. This course is intended as a theoretical and
methodological introduction to a the most widely used and effective current techniques, strategies and toolkits for
natural language processing, with a primary focus on those available in the Python programming language.

II. COURSE OBJECTIVES:


The students will try to learn:
I. The concepts and techniques of Natural language Processing for analyzing words based onMorphology
and CORPUS.
II. The mathematical foundations, Probability theory with Linguistic essentials such as syntactic andsemantic
analysis of text.
III. The applications of statistical learning methods and cutting-edge research models from deep learning.

III. COURSE OUTCOMES:


After successful completion of the course, students should be able to:
CO 1 Remember the knowledge of complex language behavior in terms of phonetics, Remember
morphology etc
CO 2 Understand the semantics and pragmatics for text processing Understand
CO 3 Apply the CORPUS linguistics to compile and analyze the texts based on Apply
digestive approach (Text Corpus Method)
CO 4 Understand various statistical approaches to machine translation for agiven natural Understand
language
CO 5 Apply Part-of-speech (POS) tagging for a given natural language and suitable Apply
modeling technique based on the structure
CO 6 Apply the state of the art algorithms and techniques for text-based processing of Apply
natural language with respect to morphology
