Personal profile
Research profile
I am a PhD Fellow at Aalborg University Copenhagen, funded by the Carlsberg Foundation project Multilingual Modelling for Resource-Poor Languages, supervised by Professor Johannes Bjerva.
- multilinguality, language variation and typology,
- parameter-efficient fine-tuning methods,
- computational linguistics and interpretability,
- and the comparison of human and AI language knowledge.
