I have no specific proposals for winter 2012. If you want to try a project in the broad area of Natural Language Processing, or simply talk about the possibilities, email me for an appointment <szpakeecs.uottawa.ca>. I will also not refuse the supervision of a project you bring along, if it piques my interest.

The following list is meant to tell you what kind of projects I have proposed (or had brought to me) over the years.

• Comparing syntactic analyzers of English
• Implementing a semantic tagger of English prose
