Deep Learning for Language Analysis
Deadline: 16 June 2024
The summer school „Deep Learning for Language Analysis” addresses students and doctoral candidates from Linguistics and Digital Humanities, as well as other fields that are involved with the application of machine learning techniques. This year the summer school will be in presence again, taking place at the University of Cologne.
Participants can choose between two alternative workshop tracks:
- “Deep Learning with Audio & Speech Data”, given by Paul Wallbott
- “Prompting, Evaluation, Interpretation. An Introduction to LLMs in Text Analysis”, given by Axel Pichler (University of Stuttgart) and Janis Pagel (University of Cologne)
REGISTRATION
The school is mainly aimed at students and doctoral candidates from linguistics and digital humanities, but participants from other fields who are interested in machine learning are welcome to apply as well. Basic knowledge of Python is presumed.
