With faculty, researchers, and students spanning the '''[http://www.cs.umd.edu/ Department of Computer Science]''', the '''[http://www.ling.umd.edu/ Department of Linguistics]''', the '''[http://ischool.umd.edu/ iSchool]''', and the '''[http://www.rhsmith.umd.edu/ Robert H. Smith School of Business]''', we are a group known not only for high quality research but also intellectual diversity and the strength of our collaborations. <!-- <center>[[Image:testudo.png|left|200px|x]]</center> --> We are part of the broader <span class="plainlinks">[http://languagescience.umd.edu/ language science]</span> center at Maryland, which integrates social and biological sciences with computer science and engineering. A number of language researchers in the CLIP lab are also affiliated with the <span class="plainlinks">'''[https://nacs.umd.edu/ Neuroscience and Cognitive Science (NACS) program]'''</span>. The lab is a part of the <span class="plainlinks">'''[http://umiacs.umd.edu/ University of Maryland Institute for Advanced Computer Studies (UMIACS)]'''</span>, and it is located in the Brendan Iribe Center for Computer Science and Engineering. CLIP research covers major areas of computational research on language, including (but not limited to!) deep learning, human-in-the-loop machine learning, multilingual text processing and low-resource languages, [[Research#Machine_Translation|machine translation]], and computational psycholinguistics and neurolinguistics. We also study speech retrieval and cross-language information retrieval. Additional challenges include ranking and personalization, [[Research#Computational_Social_Science|computational social science]] NLP for mental health, data science for finance, data science for social good and e-discovery. For further information about the CLIP Laboratory, feel free to contact its current director, '''[https://www.cs.umd.edu/~marine/ Marine Carpuat]'''. If you're new to the lab, check out the '''[https://wiki.umiacs.umd.edu/clip/index.php/Getting_Started Getting Started Page]'''! <!-- OLD MATERIAL, COMMENTED OUT JULY 2017 Research in machine learning focuses on latent variable models of language, approximate inference, and how to make probabilistic models understandable to users. Data management research focuses on architectures for wide area computation with heterogeneous information servers, pattern discovery from the annotated hyperlinked Web of life science resources, personalization and ranking and recommendation for social media, and event detection and monitoring. --> 2efax67c5gswhxqmtzkuh67sys8mduj
