Projects |
|
| Question Answering for Bulgarian, CLEF 2005 | I participated actively in the preparation of Bulgarian corpus, Bulgarian questions and topics. I also was involved in the assessment of other groups' topics and questions in Bulgarian corpus. |
| February 1, 2001 – present: BulTreeBank Project | I am a Postdoctoral in the BulTreeBank Project (An HPSG-based treebank of Bulgarian), a joint project between Linguistic Modelling Laboratory, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences and SfS, Tuebingen, Germany. |
| January 2004 – December 2004, Measuring Language Contact Project | I was a Postdoctoral at Alfa-Informatika, Groningen University. I did some work on measuring distances between some Bulgarian dialects on pnonetic level. I collaborated with prof. John Nerbonne, Wilbert Heeringa, Peter Kleiweg. |
| October, 1999 - October, 2000: "Sentence corpus for morpho-syntactic disambiguation of Bulgarian" within the CLaRK Programme | I selected sentences from real texts which demonstrate the most frequent ambiguities on the morpho-syntactic level after completion of the automatic morphological analysis of Bulgarian texts. The selected sentences were marked-up with morpho-syntactic information and the right analysis was indicated. I am responsible for the selection and for the manual disambiguation. At the moment the corpus consists of about 2 500 sentences marked-up with part-of-speech information. A new set of sentences is under compilation. |
| August,1999 - present: "Computer-based inflectional morphological dictionary of Bulgarian" | Together with Kiril Simov and Svetlomira Vidinska I am working on the extension of the computer version of the Bulgarian inflectional morphological dictionary. The main goal of the project is to extend the vocabulary to cover the paper and electronic archives at the Institute of Bulgarian Language, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. My responsibility is to classify the new lexemes according to the morphological classes. The next task will be to improve the classification according to the new morphological classes if there are such. |
