 Computational linguistics

Computational linguistics is an interdisciplinary field that merges linguistics and computer science to develop algorithms and computational models capable of processing and analyzing human language. It involves both theoretical and practical aspects, aiming to understand language through computational methods and to create applications that can interpret, generate, or manipulate natural language. Key areas of focus in computational linguistics include: 1. **Natural Language Processing (NLP)**: This is a subfield that emphasizes the interaction between computers and humans through natural language.
