via OCAndroid: OCJUG(Java) Std Mtg 2013.11-Computational Linguistics, etc

.(LT2NAM=

Topic

Computational Linguistics, Machine Learning, and Text Mining with Groovy (aka Java++)

Presenter

Jim White (http://pagesmiths.com/resume.html)

Abstract

This talk is a brief introduction to computational linguistics by way of looking at some projects I've worked on over the last year demonstrating Information Extraction, Lexical Analysis (the linguistics rather than compiler kind), an Ensemble Method for Statistical Parsing, and Corpus Construction (which includes parsing some English extracted from Javadoc).

In each case I'll give a very brief description of the motivating problem and then dive into code that deals with some part of it. We'll see how Groovy makes the most out of Java for text processing, simple web browser UIs, and cluster computing. This talk should be of interest both to those curious about what goes on in NLP as well as those who would simply like to get some of their work done faster by using more powerful tools.

Technologies we'll see at work (all of which are Open Source Software):

• Stanford CoreNLP (http://nlp.stanford.edu/software/corenlp.shtml)
• Semgrex (http://nlp.stanford.edu/software/tregex.shtml)
• GATE (https://www.meetup.com/OCAndroid/) (General Architecture for Text Engineering)
• MALLET (http://mallet.cs.umass.edu/) (MAchine Learning for LanguagE Toolkit)
• DELPH-IN PET (http://moin.delph-in.net/PetTop)
• ERG (http://erg.delph-in.net/logon) (English Resource Grammar)
• Lucene (http://lucene.apache.org)
• Ratpack (http://www.ratpack-framework.org)
• Gradle (http://www.gradle.org)
• Condor (http://research.cs.wisc.edu/htcondor)
