Bio/Research

I am particularly interested in:

- character-level processing: letter-to-phoneme conversion, transliteration, syllabification, stress prediction

- identification of cognates -- words that are similar across different languages (e.g. English night and German nacht)

- applications of cognates in various areas of NLP, including language reconstruction, sentence and word alignment in bitexts, machine translation, and detecting confusable drug names

- computing word similarity (orthographic, phonetic, and semantic)

- applications of bioinformatics in NLP
