Currently working at the linguistics department of Tuebingen University.

Within the LTfLL project (www.ltfll-project.org) my research focus on LSA applications for supporting long life learners in achieving their specified learning goals. I build next generation of NLP based tools capable of finding the optimal learning path according to each individual learning history.

In addition, I have a special interest in computational semantics for recognising textual entailment...
