Current research projects
- The relative frequencies of nouns, pronouns, and verbs
cross-linguistically [website]
This project investigates the relative frequencies of core parts of
speech, such as nouns, verbs, and pronouns, in spoken language corpora
of seven languages that represent a wide range of areal and typological
diversity.
- Relative clause extraposition in German
In my dissertation project at Ruhr-Universität Bochum, I investigate
relative clause extraposition in German on the basis of an annotated corpus of German relative clauses and additional syntactic experiments.
- Audiovisuelles Data Mining am Beispiel der Ereignissegmentierung
in multimodalen Sprachdaten (AUVIS)
I also work in the AUVIS project at the University of Cologne,
which aims to develop audio and video data mining
for multimodal language corpora.
