Research Interests |
My research interests lie within Computational/Formal Semantics/Syntax. Constructive Type Theoretical Semantics and their Implementation, Natural Language Inference and Understanding, Probabilistic Semantics, Dialogue Modelling and the interaction between Logic and Machine Learning/Deep Learning for NLP are some of the topics I have been interested in throughout the years. Furthermore, I have been working on formal and formal dialectal syntax and I also have an ongoing interest in tasks such as Metaphor Detection, Language Identification and Language Similarity. Please see the Research Outputs section for the relevant publications.
