I'm a post-doctoral researcher working on natural language parsing.
My main interests are
- Natural Language Syntax and Semantics,
- Parsing, Grammar Induction,
- Finite State Morphology, Type Theory

What I used to do
2004 - 2007: PhD under the supervision of Pr. Guy Perrier (Calligramme team in LORIA lab, Nancy, France). I have worked on the modeling of coordination and its implementation in Interaction Grammars.
2007 - 2008: Worked as 'ATER' (TA / assistant lecturer ?) in IUT Charlemagne, Nancy, France
What I do
2008-present: Efficient probabilistic parsing and grammar inference in the LORG ProjectPublications
