About

I am a faculty member in the Hebrew University. My fields of interest are Computational Linguistics and Natural Language Processing. Specifically, I conduct research on semantic (meaning) representation from a computational perspective. My research is tightly linked to statistical learning, language technology, such as machine translation and information extraction, and to the computational modeling of child language acquisition.
