Research
My research interests are in Artificial Intelligence and its intersection with Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning. My current research is mainly focused on semantic analysis of natural language texts and designing automatic language-based interactive systems. My prior research was on designing statistical relational frameworks to learn, control, and reason about complex dynamic domains.In particular my interests include:
- Natural Language Processing: grounded language acquisition, semantic understanding
- Machine Learning: learning with weak supervision, statistical relational learning
- Knowledge Representation and Reasoning: probabilistic relational models
- Automatic Interactive systems
- Information Retrieval: web monitoring
