Title: Processing the Web1T Corpus
Speaker: Toby Hawker

The Web1T corpus is an enormous and exciting resource for NLP. Effectively
processing a resource of this magnitude presents serious challenges. In this
talk I will describe the corpus and these challenges, and discuss strategies
and software I have produced to utilise it. The open-source software will be
released shortly. I will illustrate an application of the Web1T corpus to my
topic of Word Sense Disambiguation as an example.
