Abu Dhabi: In line with its mission to elevate the stature and encourage the widespread use of the Arabic language, one of the most prominent Arabic language research centers in the UAE, the Center of Excellence in the Arabic Language at Mohamed Bin Zayed University for Humanities is all set to organize Computational Linguistics and Arabic Language Conference: Perceptions, Applications, Aspirations.
The event which will hosted at the InterContinental Hotels in Abu Dhabi on 25th and 26th of October 2022, will feature best known academics and researchers from around the globe.
The Conference will concentrate on topics like developing computer lexicon and linguistic content, problems and solutions relating to machine translation, computer linguistics and people of determination, along with phonetic, morphological, and semantic analyses.
Professionals at the event will talk about computational linguistics, extensions of interdisciplinary sciences, Arabic content on the Internet, and the role of computing in teaching language to native and non-native people who speak Arabic language.
