Research Fellow in Computational Linguistics, Aberdeen

We are seeking a Computational Linguist to lead the theoretical and practical design and development of the dialogue system (other researchers will be investigating issues of efficient reasoning and issues of how to model the process of ontology authoring). The dialogue system is expected to use structured input (including an approach to specifying complex content based on “editing” natural text (see paper by Power in European Workshop on Natural Language Generation 2009) rather than free natural language text or speech, but nevertheless is required to be natural and to select and present information coherently.

Application deadline: 28 June 2012. For more information, see http://www.abdn.ac.uk/jobs/ (ref.nr: 1253433).
