Prior to each session, students are required to read a designated research paper and prepare a critical question for discussion. This engagement will deepen understanding and foster analytical skills. Additionally, each participant will undertake a personal project in the realm of NLP, culminating in a final presentation that demonstrates their applied knowledge and insights. This seminar is mandatory for all students conducting a bachelor or master thesis at the Research Center for Digital Sustainability. |
