RESEARCH

Research interests: Syntax and semantics, linguistic text analysis and data-oriented language analysis.

 

RESEARCH PROFILE: I am particularly interested in the development of digital tools that allow linguists to create their own research data. My field of study is data-driven formal analysis of natural language using both Lexical Functional Grammar and Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar. I have worked on Generative Syntax, Lexical Semantics (spatial semantics) and have experience in Grammar Engineering in the context of machine translation. For the last 10 years, I have worked on linguistic issues and Natural Language Processing for lesser resourced languages. My main languages of study are Akan, a Kwa language of West Africa, and Runyankore-Rukiga a Bantu language spoken in Uganda.
Together with Professor emeritus  Lars Hellan I work on a comparative valence lexicon for Norwegian and German.
