After the course, the student will be able to: critically study literature on computational and experimental semantics, connect semantic models to different types of empirical phenomena, formulate testable empirical questions (either experimental or computational), conduct a small empirical study, and analyze the results.     
Inhoud
Natural language semantics relies on various empirical methods, involving experimental data, machine learning, corpus analysis and linguistic questionnaires. The course presents topics where developing formal and computational semantic models heavily depends on empirical work in lexical and conceptual semantics, common sense reasoning, and computational semantics. Students choose a research problem and study selected articles on that problem. Based on this study, students formulate an empirical hypothesis and test it in the end project.

Career orientation:
Experimental and computational research; language technology.
