Clippers is our forum for informal discussion of all issues related to computational linguistics: from work in progress of visitors and people in the department, over presentation of new papers, to practical concerns such as hints on the use of CL related software tools.
To see what happened in previous quarters of Clippers, you can check out the pages of some previous quarters: Spring 02, Autumn 01
Everyone with an interest in computational linguistics is most welcome!
When and where: Thursdays at 1530-1700 in Oxley 309 (unless other room is mentioned).
