This is a joint award with Dr. Joshi at the University of Pennsylvania. This team has proposed several major research tasks in natural language processing with special emphasis on several mathematical and computational aspects. The work clearly has a formal and mathematical character. The various computational structures and strategies the team has developed and will develop, need to be investigated mathematically becausesuch investigations shed light on the descriptive and processing powers of these formalisms. These two aspects, i.e., the development of the structures and strategies, and their mathematical investigations, are very much interrelated. It is believed that natural language processing backed up by a formal framework, and mathematical investigations grounded in empirical studies are two very productive areas of research. The researcher will focus on interested in mathematical investigations only to the extent to which the results have important implications for natural language processing.

这是和宾夕法尼亚大学的乔希博士共同颁发的奖项。该团队提出了自然语言处理的几个主要研究任务，特别强调几个数学和计算方面。这部作品显然具有形式和数学的特点。该团队已经开发并将开发的各种计算结构和策略需要进行数学研究，因为这些研究揭示了这些形式化的描述和处理能力。这两个方面，即结构和策略的发展，以及它们的数学研究，是密切相关的。人们认为，以正式框架为基础的自然语言处理和以实证研究为基础的数学研究是两个非常有成效的研究领域。研究人员只会关注对数学研究感兴趣的结果对自然语言处理有重要意义的程度。
