I am a researcher at the Computational Linguistics Research Group at the Research Institute for Information and Language Processing, University of Wolverhampton.
My research interests include statistical approaches to NLP problems that have to do with lexical semantics, such as:
- acquisition of mono- and bilingual lexicons from text,
- acquisition of ontologies,
- models of selectional preferences,
- acquisition of paraphrases,
- opinion mining,
- information extraction
At present I work on an EU-funded project QALL-ME and a JISC-funded AIR project.
In the past I was a visiting researcher at AIFB, University of Karlsruhe (2001 and 2002) and at the Computer Science School, University of Birmingham, UK. I have held grants and fellowships from DAAD (2001), INTAS (2002), RFFI (2002-3) and studied on the Medici Programme (2005-6).
I am supervising Andrea Mulloni's PhD project on "Bilingual Lexical Acquisition from Comparable Corpora".
