Subject

I am a PhD student in the MUDCAT Project and MeTRapher Project supervised by Prof. Dr. Sabine Schulte im Walde (Uni Stuttgart), Prof. Dr. Alexander Fraser (TUM) and Dr. Diego Frassinelli (LMU).

My main research focuses on computational modeling of cross-lingual figurative language. Within the context of my PhD, I explore the interplay between abstract and concrete concepts and figurative language using NLP methods, with the aim of advancing cross-lingual language processing.
