Computational Linguistics
The Computational Linguistics sector is concerned with creating linguistic resources and related computer applications that aim at automated processing of the Arabic language in understanding and production; to compete with other languages in this field.
The sector, through the projects it works on, aims to:
- Build and develop linguistic resources of all kinds and levels, such as language corpora, electronic dictionaries, meanings networks, and others.
- Encourage research in the field of computing the Arabic language and developing its use and dissemination.
- Develop techniques that serve the Arabic language in use, analysis, understanding and production.
- Produce joint research with research bodies interested in the Arabic language and its computer applications.
