>> Abstract: 
> 
>> The impact of computer systems that can understand natural language will be
> tremendous. To develop this capability we need to be able to
> automatically and efficiently analyze large amounts of text. In the last
> twenty years, the statistical revolution has brought tremendous
> progress, enabling us to build systems for speech recognition and
> machine translation that perform impressively well and are used by
> millions of people every day. In this talk, I will review some current
> challenges and success stories, and give an outlook of what might be
> waiting for us in the future. Particular attention will be paid to how
> the goal of understanding all the world's languages involves challenges
> in all areas of computer science because of its scale and ambition.
