DFKI-NLP is a Natural Language Processing group of researchers, software engineers and students at the Berlin office of the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI) working on basic and applied research in areas covering, among others, information extraction, knowledge base population, dialogue, sentiment analysis, and summarization. We are particularly interested in core research on learning in low-resource settings, reasoning over larger contexts, and continual learning. We strive for a deeper understanding of human language and thinking, with the goal of developing novel methods for processing and generating human language text, speech, and knowledge. An important part of our work is the creation of corpora, the evaluation of NLP datasets and tasks, and the explainability of (neural) models.
Key topics:
Our group forms a part of DFKI’s Speech and Language Technology department led by Prof. Sebastian Möller, and closely collaborates with e.g. the Technische Universität Berlin, DFKI’s Language Technology and Multilinguality department and DFKI’s Intelligent Analytics for Massive Data group.
DFKI will have a strong presence at the 62nd Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL 2024), one of the top venues of language technology, that will take place August 11-16 in Bangkok, Thailand.
