Lab of Ontologies, Language Processing & e-Humanities @ NTU
We study how humans process language through computational and cognitive lenses.
Founded in 2007 by Professor Shu-Kai Hsieh, the Lab of Ontologies, Language Processing, and e-Humanities (LOPE) draws its spirit from the word's medieval meaning: "to walk with a long bounding stride." With this steady, purposeful momentum, we believe that the enduring value of the humanities and human knowledge must be respected and innovated within the age of AI.
