    Talk Title: SAP TERP 10 Student Certification Academy

    Abstract: Course Number & Dates:
    Session 2 (SAP 0614-06):
    Monday, June 2nd - Friday, June 6th, 2014
    Monday, June 9th - Thursday, June 12th, 2014
    Certification Exam on Friday, June 13th, 2014

    The University of Southern California, being an active member of SAP's Global University Alliances program since its inception in 1996, has been chosen to offer the TERP10 Academy to its students in early Summer 2014. The TERP10 Academy, and its certification, is a direct response to the global forecast of needed SAP skills in the market, estimated between 30,000 and 40,000, in the next several years. Students completing the TERP10 Academy and passing SAP's certification exam will have the advantage of being equipped with a good understanding of business processes adopted by companies around the world. They will also get insights into best business practices and how SAP can be used to optimize business processes. Students will find that the TERP10 Certification will open internship opportunities as well as full time jobs with consulting firms such as Deloitte, Ernst and Young, KPMG, Hitachi, and other SAP partner companies.

    Speaker: Julian Schamper, (RWTH Aachen)

    Series: Natural Language Seminar

    Abstract: Performing machine translation with monolingual data instead of parallel data is an interesting problem. Because of the lack of parallel data for many language pairs, solving the problem would arise interesting new use cases. On the road towards this we look at similar but easier problems. In the past improvements on simple substitution ciphers (1:1) were made - Even word substitutions ciphers with large vocabularies were solved for example by a beamsearch approach. This talk concentrates on the more complicated cipher class of homophonic substitution ciphers (1:m) like the famous Z408 of the Zodiac killer or the second page of the Beale cipher. We preset a method based on beamsearch. Covered aspects are an improved heuristic, the order the beamsearch should explore the search space, pruning, and the impact of the cipher lengths and cipher alphabet size on the deciphering accuracy.



    Biography: Julian Schamper studies computer science at RWTH Aachen University. He did its bachelor thesis in the field of deciphering foreign language and works as a student research assistant at Prof. Hermann Ney's Human Language Technology and Pattern Recognition Group.
