  • a
    Discuss the role of stop words in text analytics and NLP. Ho w can the identification and removal of s top words impact the quality of language processing tasks?
  • b
    Explain the concepts of interpolation and backoff in the con text of language modeling. Provide examples illustrating how these techniques en hance the performance of N-gram models
  • c
    Investigate the various types of relations that can exist be tween different senses of words. How do these relations influence the construction of semantic networks? Provide examples to illustrate your answer
  • d
    Elaborate on the Short-Time F ourier Transform method and its significance in analyzing speech signals. How does the STFT overcome challenges i n representing time-varying characteristics of speech?
  • e
