A candidate should have a good first degree in Computer Science or something closely related, and have an interest or experience in natural language processing. We would be particularly interested, for one studentship, in someone with a background in some mainstream paradigm in formal syntax and parsing. The other could be in any area of our interests: information extraction, pragmatics, knowledge r epresentation, interfaces to dialogue systems, computational lexicons etc. Informal enquiries to Yorick Wilks (y.wilks@dcs.shef.ac.uk) or to Mark Hepple (m.hepple@dcs.shef.ac.uk) for the first. The Department's WWW address is: http://www.dcs.shef.ac.uk/ where there is a lot of material on what we do, and the group's involvement with ILASH (Institute for Language, Speech and Hearing). The studentships would be at the standard UK rate (about 5000 pounds at present) but some enhancement is possible for a good candidate. For those without WWW access, a paper or email version of our research description is available from Yorick Wilks at the above email address. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This message | Submissions ai+ai-predoc@cs.cmu.edu was sent via | Subscribe/Unsubscribe ai+query@cs.cmu.edu the AI-PREDOC | Available mailing lists include mailing list. | AI-JOBS, LISP-JOBS, PROLOG-JOBS, AI-POSTDOC, AI-PREDOC
