I’m a PhD student in the international graduate research group CINACS. I am working on supervised semantic parsing on open-domain data. I’m currently interested in CCG-based systems working with AMR data.

Feel free to look at my CINACS page, as well.

ELCS: Efficient learning of compositional semantics

Previously, I’ve been working on inducing semantic CCGs from corpora such as the Groningen Meaning Bank. I compiled a pre-release version I compiled for the ACL 2014 Semantic Parsing workshop. However, I’m not developing this approach at the moment.
