This book is a part of the Blue Book series “Research on the Development of Electronic Information Engineering Technology in China”, which explores the cutting edge of natural language processing (NLP) studies.
The research objects of natural language processing are evolved from words, phrases, and sentences to text, and research directions are from language analysis, language understanding, language generation, knowledge graphs, machine translation, to deep semantic understanding, and beyond. This is in line with the development trend of applications. And for another typical NLP application machine translation, from text translation, to voice and image translation, now simultaneous interpretation, progress of technology makes the application of machine translation deeper and wider into diverse industries.
This book is intended for researchers and industrial staffs who have been following the current situation and future trends of the natural language processing. Meanwhile, it also bears high value of reference for experts, scholars, and technical and engineering managers of different levels and different fields.

Über Autor(innen)

The Chinese Academy of Engineering (CAE), China's most prestigious engineering science and technology advisory institution, is the first pilot construction unit and the top national think-tank. The CAE is dedicated to the study of national economic and social development and engineering major strategic issues in the development of science and technology.

In order to improve electronic information engineering technology development strategy research, innovate systems and mechanisms, and to integrate the benefits, in November 2015 the CEA, the Central Net Letter Office, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and the China Electronics Technology Group jointly established the Center for Electronics and Information Studies.

The Center for Electronics and Information Studies focuses on high-level, open development. It studies hot topics regarding the development of electronic information engineering and conducts applied research and policy consulting work. Combining the know-how and resources of national ministries, experts and scholars, the Center for Electronics and Information Studies strives to provide a first-class strategic think tank in the field of information and electronic engineering and technology, offering timely, future-oriented, scientific advice for national decision-makers.
