Google at ACL 2017
Sunday, July 30, 2017
Posted by Christian Howard, Editor-in-Chief, Research Communications
This week, Vancouver, Canada hosts the
2017 Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics
(ACL 2017), the premier conference in the field of
natural language understanding
, covering a broad spectrum of diverse research areas that are concerned with computational approaches to natural language.
As a leader in natural language processing & understanding and a Platinum sponsor of ACL 2017, Google will be on hand to showcase research interests that include syntax, semantics, discourse, conversation, multilingual modeling, sentiment analysis, question answering, summarization, and generally building better systems using labeled and unlabeled data, state-of-the-art modeling and learning from indirect supervision.
If you’re attending ACL 2017, we hope that you’ll stop by the Google booth to check out some demos, meet our researchers and discuss projects and opportunities at Google that go into solving interesting problems for billions of people. Learn more about the Google research being presented at ACL 2017 below (Googlers highlighted in
