Hello! I am a third year PhD student at the institute for Natural Language Processing, University of Stuttgart. I am part of the Research Group Computational Models of Misunderstanding for Complex Instructional Texts (MIST). Our group is headed by Dr. Michael Roth and focuses on the computational modeling of text passages that could lead to misunderstandings.

My research interests include:

  • computational modeling of implicit and underspecified language
  • question-answering
  • explainability in NLP
