Are we computer scientists or linguists?
Of course, as computational linguists, we are both, somehow. But depending on your study background, you may rather feel like the one or the other. It can also happen that at some point, as in my case, you're switching from a rather linguistics-related background to a position that is closer to computer science (or vice versa). In this session, I would like to exchange thoughts about this "life between the disciplines". For example: Have you experienced differences between "Linguistics-NLP" and "Computer-Science-NLP" or do you feel it is the same? What do linguists know that computer scientists don't and vice versa? What would you like to learn (more) from the other discipline? This session is aimed at (PhD) students at any stage who would like to discuss where they see themselves in the spectrum of computational linguistics.
