New here (as nearly everybody), so I'd like to briefly introduce myself. I am working in natural language processing #NLP #NLProc – the field in computer science and linguistics that teaches computers to understand, generate, and process human language. (1/4)
I am head of a research group at the University of Bamberg, where we focus on written text from various domains, particularly social media, scientific texts, and news, but also everything else. (2/4)
We care about concepts that are implicitly expressed, like #emotions, #stances, #arguments, or #deception, next to reconstructing other #psychological concepts of humans from the text they create. We care about #robust models, and methods that allow users to change models through #interaction. (3/4)
I will probably also write here about my hobbies every now and then: I like #bicycles and #kayaks, I like indian food, particular south indian, and don't believe in cars as a lasting future technology. (4/4)
