Forskningsprofil

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher in Natural Language Processing (NLP) with a focus on NLP Applications, with a special focus on NLP for Education. I am advised by Prof. Johannes Bjerva and Prof. Euan Lindsay.

I hold a PhD in NLP from the IT University of Copenhagen (ITU), where I was advised by Prof. Barbara Plank and A/P. Rob van der Goot. I was part of NLPnorth at ITU and MaiNLP at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich (LMU). I worked on Computational Job Market Analysis (or NLP for HR), where we investigated how to extract information (e.g., skills) from job ads data and match these to existing resources (e.g., taxonomies).

I am interested in:

• NLP x Education (Postdoc): Can we improve students’ learning by giving them automatic feedback from NLP tools (e.g., language models)? How can we do this over time?
• NLP x HR (PhD): How can we extract relevant skills from job ads and in what way can we match them with existing taxonomies to assist job centers matching candidates to jobs better?
• Resource Creation: My general interests are mostly on resource creation; such as developing annotation guidelines for data annotation, (multilingual) datasets creation in both general and specific domains, and language model training on small and large scale.
