\frametitle{Learning Outcomes}
At the end of the seminar, participants will be able to:
\begin{itemize}
\item Explain examples of NLP applications and related technical issues.
\item Explain the layers of NLP and corresponding processing tasks.
\item<alert@2> Use existing libraries to perform common NLP processing tasks.
\item<alert@2> Use wordnet-based semantic networks to provide multilingual semantic information in NLP applications.
\end{itemize}
