Welcome into my own little personnal space...

Bio

I'm an associate professor (Maître de Conférence) in the University Paris-Sorbonne Université Paris 4 La Sorbonne. From September 2006 to December 2009, I was a member of the Lalic Team. Now, I'm a member of the INRIA's Alpage project.

I used to be a postdoc at the DCU's GramLab group.
Before that I was a Phd Student in the Langue et Dialogue team at the Loria in France.

My interests cover all parts of Natural Language Processing, mainly syntatic analysis, wide coverage parsing, syntax-semantic interface, semantic-pragmatic interface (ontology based), tagging, grammar induction and Machine Translation.
Those days I'm more and more involved into parsing user generated content through treebanking and parsing.
