[2] What is Computational Linguistics
Computational linguistics (CL) is a discipline between linguistics and
computer science which is concerned with the computational aspects of the
human language faculty. It belongs to the cognitive sciences and overlaps
with the field of artificial intelligence (AI), a branch of computer
science that is aiming at computational models of human cognition.
There are two components of CL: applied and theoretical.
The applied component of CL is more interested in the practical
outcome of modelling human language use. The goal is to create
software products that have some knowledge of human language. Such
products are urgently needed for improving human-machine interaction
since the main obstacle in the interaction beween human and computer
is one of communication. Today's computers do not understand our
language, and humans have difficulties understand the computer's
language, which does not correspond to the structure of human thought.
Natural language interfaces enable the user to communicate with the
computer in German, English or another human language. Some applications
of such interfaces are database queries, information retrieval from texts
and so-called expert systems. Current advances in recognition of spoken
language improve the usability of many types of natural language systems.
Communication with computers using spoken language will have a lasting
impact upon the work environment, opening up completely new areas of
application for information technology.
Although existing CL programs are far from achieving human ability, they
have numerous possible applications. Even if the language the machine
understands and its domain of discourse are very restricted, the use of
human language can increase the acceptance of software and the productivity
of its users.
Much older than communication problems between human beings and machines
are those between people with different mother tongues. One of the
original goals of applied computational linguistics was fully automatic
translation between human languages. From bitter experience scientists
have realized that they are far from achieving this. Nevertheless,
computational linguists have created software systems which can simplify
the work of human translators and clearly improve their productivity.
The future of applied computational linguistics will be determined by the
growing need for user-friendly software. Even though the successful
simulation of human language competence is not to be expected in the near
future, computational linguists have numerous immediate research goals
involving the design, realization and maintenance of systems which
facilitate everyday work, such as grammar checkers for word processing
programs.
Theoretical CL takes up issues in formal theories. It deals with
formal theories about the linguistic knowledge that a human needs for
generating and understanding language. Today these theories have
reached a degree of complexity that can only be managed by employing
computers. Computational linguists develop formal models simulating
aspects of the human language faculty and implement them as computer
programmes. These programmes constitute the basis for the evaluation
and further development of the theories. In addition to linguistic
theories, findings from cognitive psychology play a major role in
simulating linguistic competence. Within psychology, it is mainly the
area of psycholinguistics that examines the cognitive processes
constituting human language use.
The special attraction of computational linguistics lies in the combination
of methods and strategies from the humanities, natural and behavioural
sciences, and engineering.

[3] What is comp.ai.nat-lang
Here follows the original charter for comp.ai.nat-lang.
Name: comp.ai.nat-lang
Moderation: This group will be unmoderated.
Purpose: To discuss issues relating to natural language, especially
computer-related issues from an AI viewpoint. The topics
that will be discussed in this group will concentrate on, but
are not limited to, the following:
* Natural Language Understanding
* Natural Language Generation
* Machine Translation
* Dialogue and Discourse Systems
* Natural Language Interfaces
* Parsing
* Computational Linguistics
* Computer-Aided Language Learning
This group will avoid discussing issues that are more properly
covered by other newsgroups. For example, speech synthesis
should be discussed in comp.speech. However, due to the
interdisciplinary nature of the field, there may be overlap in
material between other groups. To try to keep this to a
minimum, topics should pertain to computer-related aspects
of natural language.
Rules of Decorum: Because of the unmoderated format, anyone with access to
this newsgroup will be able to post without review.
This is meant to encourage discussion of the topics.
Please refrain from "flames" or unnecessary criticism
of a person's viewpoints or personality in a harsh
or insulting manner. Criticisms should constructive
and polite whenever possible.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[7]How to apply to graduate school in CL/NLP in the USA
Usually, the best timetable is as follows (given that M is the month
when your studies would start, usually, in September)
M - 24 : Try to clarify your interests: is it really NLP
that you are interested in? What possible
subfields might be of interest to you? ...etc.
Remember: 5 years working in an area you are
not interested in will be a very painful
experience.
M - 18 : Read publications in the area of your interest
in order to discover the best places for
you. Pay close attention to the specific fields of
research: which professors are most active in those
fields, and which institutions.
Remember: Unless you are familiar with the most
current research, you will not be able
to find the best place for you.
M - 18 : Go to your local library and consult some of the
available directories (see [3-3]) - write down
as much information as you can about some
15-25 universities. These universities form your
preliminary list.
Remember: There are some 100 universities in the
USA offering NLP/CL programs. Some of them
will be more attractive to you than others.
M - 18 : Talk to your advisers at school, talk to other
students, post questions on the Internet, visit
departmental Web sites.
This way you will get advice on a few more univer-
sities that you might have skipped until this moment.
Remember: Others have faced what you are going
through. Use their experience.
M - 15 : Send letters to the universities that you have
on your preliminary list. Make sure you indicate
when do you want to start, what degree (MA, MS,
Ph.D.) you are interested in, whether or not
you will be applying for financial aid, whether
you will need some special visa...
Remember: Ask for all the information that you
need; give them all the information they'd
need to satisfy your request.
M - 12 : Read carefully the information that you have
received from the universities. Shorten your list
of places to the number that you will eventually
apply to (usually 5-8 is a good number).
Remember: Make sure you include both your best choice
schools and some places where you are almost
certain of getting accepted.
M - 10 : Fill in all the forms that are sent to you,
ask your professors to send reference letters to
the schools directly.
Remember: Professors will probably be very busy.
Give them the reference forms
as early as possible and make sure you
specify a reasonable time for them to fill
them in and send them out.
M - 10 : (or earlier) - take the necessary tests (GRE,
TOEFL, or others) that the schools want. Make sure
you tell the testing service which universities
you want them to send your scores to.
Remember: Time yourself through several practice
tests. The GRE General test, for example,
is more about mastery of timing than knowledge.
M - 9 : (approximately) - mail your forms to the schools,
preferably 2-3 weeks before the deadlines.
Remember: You don't want your applications to get there
at the same time as everyone else. Give the
admissions committee some extra time to
review your application.
M - 6 : usually six months before the beginning of the semester
that you are applying for, you will get a letter
saying whether you have been accepted.
Remember: Usually, thick letters, e-mails, and telegrams
mean acceptance. Thin one-sheet letters will
most likely be disappointing for you.
M - 5 : now, you have been accepted to a few schools. Go back
to the same resources that you used when you were
deciding where to apply (journals, catalogs, directo-
ries, professors, etc.). Ask the schools that accepted
you to fly you in for a visit (many will do this).
Remember: Don't forget non-academic factors such as
location, financial aid, the atmosphere in
the department, etc.

A: There are many ways. The most common way, however, is using a local ftp
client.
Suppose you want to get the file /pub/editors/webster.tar.Z
from ftp.uu.net
Here is a sample session. You type in whatever is underlined here.
$ftp ftp.uu.net
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Connected to ftp.uu.net.

[19] FTP repositories
(This section is out of date).
19.1. Consortium for Lexical Research (CRL)
The Consortium for Lexical Research is designed to serve as a
repository for software and resources of importance to the natural
language processing research community. Sharable resources, and the
task of centralizing lexical data and tools, are of foremost
concern in lexical research and computational linguistics It
is our objective to help alleviate the repeated recreation of
basic software tools, and to assist in making essential data
sources more generally available.
CLR maintains a public ftp site, and a separate library of
materials only for members of CLR. Currently CLR has about 60
members, mostly academic institutions, and almost every major
natural language processing center in the U.S. belongs. Access to
the members-only materials is strictly regulated by password and
userid.
Our catalog of current holdings is available by using anonymous
ftp to clr.nmsu.edu
19.2. Oxford Text Archive (OTA)
ftp ota.ox.ac.uk
ota/textarchive.list the current catalogue
There are two classes of texts available from this FTP server:
(a) texts which are in TEI format and which we can make freely
available (these all appear as category P texts in the shortlist)
(b) texts which are available only under our standard conditions of
use, (these all appear as category U or A in the shortlist)

NLs (see Pullum, "Footloose and Context-Free"). Although Pullum
says there was an even earlier argument given in Dutch (don't have
the article, but it's Pullum's "Nobody goes around at LSA meetings
offering odds").]
