Institute for Natural Language Processing (IMS): News


December 2010

Our faculty, Faculty 5 CS&EE, established a commission for granting Dr. phil. degrees this month. We now have the ability to grant both Dr. phil. and Dr. rer. nat. degrees, depending on whether the focus of a dissertation is in computational linguistics or CS-oriented natural language processing. This makes IfNLP the only institute in Germany in our research area that offers both Dr. phil. and Dr. rer. nat. degrees as part of its regular doctoral degree programs.

November 2010

Dr. Andreas Maletti, a leading researcher in the area of tree automata and the recipient of a prestigious Emmy Noether fellowship, has selected IfNLP as the hosting institution for his research group. Emmy Noether fellows are free to choose any university in Germany. We are very excited that Andreas has selected Stuttgart as the best environment for conducting his research.

October 2010

The graduate college of SFB 732 officially started this month. The first six graduate students received one-year fellowships to study with faculty members who are part of the SFB. A program of classes and events is offered to the six new students and the 20+ graduate students that work for individual SFB projects.

September 2010

We hosted the IVA4NLP workshop on September 17. About 40 researchers met in Vaihingen to discuss prospects and challenges of using interactive visual analysis for natural language processing, computational linguistics and information retrieval. The event was part of the DFG SPP (Schwerpunktprogramm) 1335 Scalable Visual Analysis.

July 2010

The groundbreaking ceremony for our new building took place on July 16th. We are looking forward to moving into a brandnew building on the main campus (probably end of 2011) and would like to thank the University of Stuttgart and state and federal governments for financing this project.

June 2010

Congratulations to Florian Laws for being awarded a Google European Doctoral Fellowship!! And thanks very much to Google for this generous program in support of academic research.
