More than 7 years in the making, now finally published (and even #OpenAccess !): My dissertation "Using #ConceptualSpaces for #ArtificialIntelligence" ๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€ https://doi.org/10.48693/435

On related news, I'm finally able to call myself "Dr. Bechberger" from now on ๐Ÿ™‚

Thanks to everyone, who was part of this journey!

Glad to report, that I passed my PhD defense on Tuesday with "summa cum laude" ๐Ÿ˜€ now I'll try to trick some publisher into publishing my dissertation as a real book without me having to rewrite the whole thing - let's see how that goes ๐Ÿ˜„

New talk! "Situated Language Understanding: What it is, and how it should be studied" 

... in which I try to do something that I find missing in NLP, namely top-down goal setting; for the area I care about most, situated interaction. 

(Talk given a while ago at @verenarieser 's lab seminar -- thanks for the invitation!)

@FroehlichMarcel @e_mydata @murena @gael I recently switched to @GrapheneOS for similar reasons. @fdroidorg takes you quite far with #opensource apps, for some inevitable ones (like online banking stuff, if you need it), you can use the #aurorastore (somewhat anonymized access to google play store). I'm quite satisfied so far ๐Ÿ™‚
