About NLPlab
Northeastern University is located at the beautiful lakeside of Shenyang Nanhu Park. Mr. Chang Hsueh-liang, the well-known young marshal, once acted as the president. Natural Language Processing Lab of Department of Computer Science of Northeastern University is a high-tech research base, which focuses on scientific research, industry development and basic course education. The research work is directed by Prof. Yao Tian-shun and Prof. Zhu Jing-bo. The lab now has a station for postdoctoral programs.
In 1980, the lab first got involved in the area of machine translation when Prof. Yao Tianshun started his work as a visiting scholar at Kongandao Machine Translation Research Center of Chinese University of Hong Kong.
From 1987 to 1994, we took part in the research of CICC Asian multilingual machine translation system (including China, Japan, Thailand, Malay, Indonesia etc.), which was directed by European Community. Our lab is responsible for the research on Chinese analysis. We first cooperated with Nippon Electric Co, LTD, then Fujitsu Company. After we finished the work for CICC in 1989, we finished building our own Chinese-English machine translation system.
