This comprehensive reference work provides an overview of the
concepts, methodologies, and applications in computational
linguistics and natural language processing (NLP).
* Features contributions by the top researchers in the field,
reflecting the work that is driving the discipline forward
* Includes an introduction to the major theoretical issues in
these fields, as well as the central engineering applications that
the work has produced
* Presents the major developments in an accessible way,
explaining the close connection between scientific understanding of
the computational properties of natural language and the creation
of effective language technologies
* Serves as an invaluable state-of-the-art reference source for
computational linguists and software engineers developing NLP
applications in industrial research and development labs of
software companies
