Language technology

Research areas within language technology include computational linguistics, deep learning in natural language processing (NLP), large language models, machine translation,
evaluation methods for NLP tasks, human annotation of linguistic
datasets, semantic change detection and many others.

This specialization is driven by the Language Technology Group, LTG
(https://www.mn.uio.no/ifi/english/research/groups/ltg/). Some recent master projects:

  • Text-Based Prediction of Dwelling Condition by Ece Cetinoglu. It used Norwegian BERT models to predict the condition score of dwellings in the real estate
    market based on the features extracted from the textual content of their
    respective listing advertisements.
  • NLP-Based Automated Conspiracy Detection for Massive Twitter Datasets by Rohullah Akbari. This thesis analyze such conspiracy theories on COVID-19-related misinformation on Twitter using the manually labeled nine conspiracy categories from the COCO dataset, a multilabel multiclass text-based dataset.
