Essay (2000 words)
Write an essay of no more than 2000 words which compares and contrasts at least two approaches in ONE of the following topics in Natural Language Processing:
• Named Entity Recognition • Paraphrase Identification • Machine Translation
In your chosen topic, you should outline the problem and introduce the different approaches you are considering – these may be completely different or quite similar. You should make references to the literature to support your theoretical discussion of the approaches. You should discuss practical results from the literature (you are NOT expected to do any experiments). This evaluation should lead to a conclusion as to which you believe is the best approach. You should comment on further work which could be done in this area.

Is the essay well-written, well-structured and using a formal writing style?
Does the essay explain what the problem is? Why is it not easy?
Does the essay describe at least 2 approaches? Is there ev- idence that the author understands the basic principles un- derlying the approaches?
Does the essay explain what is fundamentally different about these approaches from a theoretical point of view?
How are these approaches different in practice? From the point of view of accuracy, efficiency, cost and/or ease of im- plementation? Is there quantitative evidence of these differ- ences in the essay?
Are each of the major points in the essay backed up with at least one reference to the academic literature?
Is there a sensible conclusion as to which is the best approach to use (possibly in the context of different scenarios)?
Are there sensible suggestions for further work to do in this area (these do not need to be novel provided citations are given).
