The language of computational linguistics. | Walter Daelemans | TEDxAntwerp

The language of computational linguistics. Walter Daelemans is professor of Artificial Intelligence and Natural Language Processing (NLP) at the University of Antwerp. He helped pioneer the statistical and machine learning revolution in NLP in the nineties with the development of Memory-Based Language Processing and with work on the methodology of machine learning for language processing. He was awarded EurAI and ACL fellowships for this work, and has published influential work on text mining and knowledge extraction from biomedical, clinical, and social media text, and on stylometry and author profiling. With currently 32 supervised PhDs graduated and more than 400 co-authored publications he is one of the most prolific NLP researchers in the Low Countries. In addition, he has been involved in the creation of high profile valorization results with popular open-source software such as TiMBL and Pattern, and has been instrumental in the creation of several spin-offs (textkernel, textgain, fluent.ai). This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
