Natural Language Processing, Understanding and Generation Lab (nlPUG)
Emulating human ability to understand and generate natural language.
Enriching computers with the power of human language
The nlPUG lab investigates advanced and transformational applications of natural language processing (NLP), one of the most thriving areas in artificial intelligence and data science. With expertise strongly founded in machine and deep learning, and platforms such as scikit-learn, TensorFlow and PyTorch, our researchers are driving significant breakthroughs and transformative solutions for governments, industry and society.
Real-world applications
We collaborate extensively with industry so that our research has true exponential impact. Our lab has developed software for a diversity of purposes, including machine translation and automatic post-editing for low-resource languages, named-entity recognition for low-resource languages and clinical domains, static and dynamic topic modelling, taxonomy extraction and taxonomy-augmented document classification, and abstractive multi-document summarisation.
