Question Processing - Einzelansicht

This class is a project seminar for students in Cognitive Systems, dealing with "question processing" in NLP, conceived broadly.

In the first part, we will look at different NLP tasks related to questions (question classification, question generation, question answering, etc.). The virtual format of this class will consist in us reading and discussing research papers together. We will also study and discuss existing datasets and resources.

In the second part of the class, we will settle on group projects related to question processing using and extending available tools and datasets.
