CERIST
NLP Challenge 2022
Natural Language Processing (NLP) is at the core of most information processing tasks.
With a long history in computer science, it has always been a central discipline of Artificial Intelligence. Recently, with the availability of data and the development of processing technologies (such as GPUs, TPUs, ...), we witness a great increasing success
of machine and deep learning algorithms, which has marked the renewal of AI and opened its new era.
The success of deep learning algorithms in general and transformers in particular has greatly boosted NLP tasks and changed the landscape of the field which has never been
as fruitful as today, both in the monolingual and the multilingual dimension.
In this context, CERIST proposes this NLP challenge to students and teams to solve some hot topic specific tasks. These tasks deal with scientific information and social networks information, we'll provide training and test datasets and we expect from teams to propose
deep learning approaches to solve the tasks. Tasks are described below and people may register on: www.nlpchallenge.cerist.dz .
