if they dont know how to code - we dont want them. This is not a
school to teach coding. Our centre produces world class research, and
we would want our projects to reflect this. Mentor ship should
address issues of design, planning, implementation, supplying domain
knowledge. For example, if the student is doing ERM, we would like a
kick-ass MBA as mentor
Just curious, are there any examples of this world class research that
we can look at? As in, I'd like to know if I am up to this, and I'm
sure there are others who are too.
Just had a look at one of the centre's research project (I am not sure if
its world class).
http://au-kbc.org/research_areas/nlp/projects/sengine.html
This page talks about creating a search engine for tamil. Already google is
there and we can do searching using unicode tamil (or any other encoding -
but our google interface should be changed accordingly to show the encoding
correctly ). I find google does this job very effectively.
For example,
You please enter this tamil text ??????????? (just cut and paste) in your
google search and enter.
You will find more than 30K search results coming for thirukural !!!!
If the centre is planning to do something more efficient than google search
for tamil then we can appreciate it. In that case the project page should
atleast mention how its going to be better than existing google tamil text
search.
Or the centre can reuse opensoure Nutch project(
http://lucene.apache.org/nutch/) to produce a better tamil search.
Is there any projects/products of this centre released to the public use ?
if so can somebody give some pointers to it.
