1. IŻ SWÓJ JĘZYK MAJĄ! An exploration of the computational methods for identifying language variation in Polish
Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för filosofi, lingvistik och vetenskapsteoriSammanfattning : Computational approaches to language variation continue to contribute in a relevant way to various fields, including Natural Language Processing (NLP) and linguistics.
