# Computational Linguistics – Uppsala University
The **Computational Linguistics Group** at Uppsala University (often referred to as **Uppsala NLP**) is a leading research environment within the **Department of Linguistics and Philology**.
We combine computer science and linguistics to analyze and process human language, with a strong empirical orientation emphasizing multilingual systems, dependency parsing, and digital humanities.
## Research & Subject Areas
Our research is driven by both theoretical goals—understanding human language processing—and practical applications in Natural Language Processing (NLP). Key focus areas include:
* **Multilingual NLP:** Cross-lingual transfer learning and typologically diverse language modeling.
* **Syntax & Parsing:** Development of algorithms for grammatical analysis, with a special focus on dependency-based parsing.
* **Digital Philology:** Computational methods for historical texts, including handwriting recognition and cipher decoding.
* **Machine Translation:** Neural machine translation and discourse-oriented translation models.
## Key Resources & Projects
We are actively involved in the development of several major community resources and tools:
* **[Universal Dependencies (UD)](https://universaldependencies.org/):** Uppsala is a founding node of this open community effort to create cross-linguistically consistent treebank annotation for over 100 languages.
* **[MaltParser](http://www.maltparser.org/):** A data-driven parser-generator for dependency parsing.
* **[Swe-CLARIN](https://sweclarin.se/):** As a partner in the Common Language Resources and Technology Infrastructure, we develop and maintain tools for digital humanities research.
* **Historical Corpora & Models:**
* *UU_SwedishNovels_1800-1940*: A corpus of Swedish literary novels.
* *SOU-corpus*: Processed versions of Swedish Government Official Reports.
* *DECODE*: Automatic decoding of historical manuscripts.
## About the Group
The Computational Linguistics group fosters a vibrant international environment with professors, researchers, and doctoral students. We offer a specialized **Master’s Programme in Language Technology** and participate heavily in the global NLP research community.
