About me

From October 2024, I am a posdoctoral computational linguist at the Laboratoire d’Informatique et Systèmes (LIS) of the Aix-Marseille University in Marseille, France. I am co-working on the COMPO project which investigates inductive biases for compositionality-capable Deep Learning Models of Natural Language. My supervisor is Prof. Dr. Alexis Nasr.

Before this (from 2017 to 2024) I was a PhD Student under supervision of Prof. Dr. Laura Kallmeyer and Prof. Dr. Wiebke Petersen at the University of Düsseldorf in Germany. In my dissertation project I developed a frame-semantic parser for English, French, German, and Russian based on Role and Reference Grammar, Tree Rewriting Grammars and neural networks. My dissertation was part of the TreeGraSP project at the University of Düsseldorf, Germany.

My research interests include

• Large Language Models
• Computational Semantics, Frame Semantics, Compositional Semantics
• Semantic Parsing, Parsing beyond context-free grammars
• Machine Learning, Deep Learning
• Natural Language Understanding, Text Generation with Neural Networks,Neural Semantic Parsing
• Syntax-Semantics Interface
• Tree Adjoining Grammars (TAG), Tree Wrapping Grammar (TWG), Grammar induction, Supertagging
• Role and Reference Grammar (RRG)
