Summary
I am particularly interested in:
- NLP at the sub-word level: letter-phoneme conversion, transliteration, orthography, morphology, word similarity, drug names
- Cognates: identification, projection, applications, machine translation, bitext alignment, diachronic linguistics
- Lexical Semantics: synonymy, polysemy, homonymy, translational equivalence, word sense disambiguation
- Computational Cryptography: decoding unknown scripts, cipher language identification
