Another Comp Ling event upcoming
by Neil Myler 29 Nov '18

Hi everyone, Thanks so much to those of you who came to our Computational Linguistics event this past Tuesday! You may be interested to hear the following news from the speaker that day, Prof. Derry Wijaya: "Hi everyone, I want to let you know about the talk on "Building and Evaluating Conversational Agents" that we are having on Monday 11-12 at Hariri during our usual AI Research Meeting: https://www.bu.edu/hic/2018/11/28/air-joao-sedoc/. I thought the talk can be interesting and relevant for some, given the pervasiveness of conversational agents nowadays: Siri, Alexa, Google Home, etc; and also the yearly Amazon Alexa Challenge. The talk is by Joao Sedoc <https://sites.google.com/site/jsedoc/> a PhD student at University of Pennsylvania whom I met while I was doing a Postdoc there. He has been working on this area of building conversational agents for his PhD thesis, and he taught a seminar class at Penn on building these conversational agents, using Alexa as a testbed for deploying the agents (very cool). If you are interested to meet with him after his talk, I have created his schedule here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YB2w1_53OX42URjOoCx1huB5pA0xqI_RI3V… Thanks! Derry" === If you no longer wish to receive emails from this list, follow this link, scroll down to the bottom, and follow the instructions there: http://ling.bu.edu/mailman/listinfo/bula Sign up as a BULA member on orgsync: https://orgsync.com/105066/chapter BULA Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/BULingAssoc/?fref=ts <https://www.facebook.com/> Linguistics Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/BULinguistics/ Linguistics website: http://ling.bu.edu
