Subject: Job Posting: NLP German grammarian, Japanese lexicographer
========================================================
COMPUTATIONAL GRAMMARIAN for German
COMPUTATIONAL LEXICOGRAPHER for Japanese
The NLP Group in Microsoft Research is looking for
a computational lexicographer for Japanese, and a computational
grammarian for German. The positions will be located
on the Microsoft central campus in Redmond, Washington, USA.
This is a great opportunity to work with a dedicated group of
researchers who are creating a system for unrestricted text
understanding and generation.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
The grammarian's primary responsibilities include developing
and testing a computational grammar for the language, in
accordance with the overall architecture of the Microsoft
Natural Language Understanding system. The initial emphasis
will be on creating a grammar for syntactic analysis.
The lexicographer's primary responsibilities include
developing and maintaining the morphological rules and data
for the language, in accordance with the overall system
architecture used by the Microsoft Research NLP group.
QUALIFICATIONS:
The grammarian's qualifications should include experience in
linguistic research and software development; familiarity
with natural language processing; a flexible approach to
linguistic theory; and an advanced degree in linguistics,
computer science, or a closely related discipline. Native
proficiency in the language of choice is assumed; practical
experience with NLP implementation issues is highly desirable.
The lexicographer's qualifications should include experience
in linguistic research and online dictionary development,
programming experience, keen interest in lexical issues, and
an advanced degree in linguistics or a closely related
discipline. Native proficiency in the language of choice is
assumed. A practical orientation is highly desirable.
Significant programming experience or experience extracting
lexical information from online dictionaries or corpora would
be a plus.
ABOUT THE MICROSOFT NLP RESEARCH GROUP:
We are in the process of designing and building a system to
analyze unrestricted natural language, taking input text, and
moving from lexical/morphological analysis through syntax,
semantics, and eventually pragmatics and discourse. A
generation component is also planned. The programming system
and underlying principles that are used for English have been
found to be applicable to other languages. We are empirically
oriented, and are happy to use good linguistic ideas wherever
they can be found. A reasonable first-version summary of our
techniques and some of our experience can be found in the book
"Natural Language Processing: The PLNLP Approach," Kluwer
Academic Publishers, Boston, 1993.
