The Department of Literature & Languages hosted a guest lecture for students enrolled in the open elective course “Decoding Language,” which is based on Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). The lecture took place on October 14 and 15, 2024 and featured Dr Debdarsan Niyogi, an authority in Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Generative AI.
Dr Niyogi’s lecture, titled “Mind & Machine: How Language is Processed,” focused on the intersection of human cognition and artificial intelligence in language processing. He provided in-depth insights into how natural language processing (NLP) algorithms enable machines to interpret and generate human language. The sessions bridged the gap between human linguistic abilities and machine learning models.
Students gained valuable knowledge about the parallels between human and machine language processing. They learned about the complexities of NLP and its real-world applications in AI, data science, and machine learning. This understanding will not only enhance their grasp of neuro-linguistic programming but also prepare them for future endeavours in the growing field of AI-driven language technologies.
