Research Group in Computational Linguistics (RGCL)

Please note that this is a legacy entry reflecting past infrastructure activity and contributions. It is not currently active.

Description

The Research Group in Computational Linguistics (RGCL) was a research group at the University of Wolverhampton, founded in 1998 within the Research Institute in Information and Language Processing, and internationally recognised for natural language processing research and for developing NLP tools and resources, with work across anaphora resolution, automatic summarisation, terminology extraction, corpus development and exploitation, information extraction, named entity recognition, question answering, multiple choice question generation and multilingual applications. Its founding lead subsequently moved to another UK university, and as of 2026 the group's own website and its host institute's pages are offline and the University of Wolverhampton no longer lists the group or the institute among its current research centres, so this record is maintained as an inactive, historical living-archive entry for what was a significant UK centre for corpus linguistics, natural language processing and translation technologies.
