Hello

I work in the area of computational linguistics—what that means is that I am trying to find the computational machinery needed for producing and understanding natural languages. That involves discovering how is language represented, processed and learned both by humans and machines. Naturally, it also has a great number of important practical applications. Here is a non-exhaustive list of topics I'm interested in:

• Machine Learning: Latent Variable Models and Probabilistic Inference over Structures
• Linguistics: Incremental Language Processing, Language Universals, Formal Grammars
• Applications: Machine Translation, Sign Language Generation and LLMs in general
