Research Overview
My research lies at the intersection of computational linguistics and the study of creole languages. Over the years, I have contributed to several areas, including the annotation of multilingual corpora, the analysis of creole word structures, and the application of tree-adjoining grammars to underrepresented languages.
One of my primary research interests has been the linguistic structures of creole languages, particularly in the context of their historical development and morphological complexities. For instance, my work (with Pr. Rougé) on the origin of liquid consonants in Saotomean creole and the broader study of Portuguese-based creoles in the Gulf of Guinea have provided insights into the emergence and evolution of these languages.
In the field of computational linguistics, I have explored innovative approaches to describe and normalize morphologically-rich languages. This work has included developing frameworks for natural language processing that accommodate the unique characteristics of these languages, as exemplified by my contributions to workshops on language technology.
Moreover, I have been involved in annotating and processing multilingual corpora, with an emphasis on facilitating cross-linguistic research and improving the accuracy of computational models in multilingual settings.
My research is driven by a commitment to advancing both theoretical and practical knowledge in these fields. Through collaboration with international scholars and participation in interdisciplinary conferences, I strive to contribute to the broader academic conversation on language processing and preservation.
