NLP要从娃娃抓起

第三届北美计算语言学奥林匹克竞赛开始接受注册了。这个竞赛是专门面向高中生和初中生的竞赛。挺有意思的。联想现在的各种各样的NLP评测,不禁想到了邓小平的一句老话,“计算机要从娃娃抓起”。NLP也得从娃娃抓起啊~!

推荐中国的高中生也大力参加啊!

What is the Computational Linguistics Olympiad?

The North American Computational Linguistics Olympiad (NACLO) is modeled after similar Linguistics Olympiads held in Eastern Europe since 1965. In these events, hundreds of high school age students have participated, challenged by interesting linguistic problems from dozens of the world's languages. In solving the problems, students learn about the richness, diversity and systematicity of language, while exercising natural logic and reasoning skills. No prior knowledge of particular languages or of linguistics is necessary, but the competitions have proven very successful in attracting top students to study and choose careers in fields of linguistics, computational linguistics and language technologies.

Professional linguists and other specialists in natural language processing technologies cooperate to create stimulating and engaging problems that represent cutting edge theoretical and practical issues in their fields. This is truly an opportunity for young people to experience a taste of what natural language processing in the 21st century is all about.
