About me
My name
is Manex Agirrezabal and I am an Associate Professor at the Centre for Language Technology (Department of Nordic Studies and Linguistics, University of Copenhagen).
I studied Computer Science for 5
years (UPV/EHU).
And a Master in Natural
Language Processing (UPV/EHU). Luckily I could do both in Basque, my mother
language.
I did my
PhD at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) at the IXA
NLP group.
After that, I was a postdoc and later Assistant Professor at the University of Copenhagen at the Centre for Language Technology (CST).
My main research interest is the automatical
analysis of poetry in English, especially stress patterns. But
wait, can computers analyze poetry? Yeah! They can! Some
researchers started working on it in the early 80s with
interesting contributions. Nowadays we
apply current techniques to these problems.
Apart of my main research line, I also like the
generation of language, computational morphology/phonology and
finite-state methods.
