Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research (JAIR) paper available! Me and Michael Strube coauthored a paper on "Knowledge Derived from Wikipedia for Computing Semantic Relatedness" which builds upon and extends our HLT-NAACL'06 and AAAI'06 papers. You can get it below from the "publications" section!
Infos on "Ausgewählte Themen der Künstlichen Intelligenz" course: the slides are finally on-line! See below under "teaching".
JHU workshop participation!!!
Michael Strube and myself participated in a six week JHU Summer Workshop on Exploiting Lexical & Encyclopedic Resources for Entity Disambiguation.
ESSLLI course proposal accepted!!! 
Me and Michael Strube recently taught a course on "Exploiting Wikipedia for Research in NLP" at the forthcoming ESSLLI-2007 summer school. If you are looking for the course's slides, please check Michael's page.
New software available!!!
- a wrapper library written in Java for Ted Pedersen's excellent WordNet::Similarity
library. Get it here!
- the WikiRelate! API to compute semantic relatedness using
the encyclopedia that anyone can edit. Get it here!

Work Information
|
I am currently pursuing my PhD at the University of Stuttgart under the supervision of prof. Hinrich Schütze while being affiliated here at EML as part of the Natural Language Processing (NLP) Group at EML Research gGmbH. My research topics deal with exploring encyclopedic knowledge sources (e.g. Wikipedia) and document-level learning methods for coreference resolution.

| Teaching |
Together with my colleague Ulrich Scholz I taught a course in the summer semester 2007 at the Department of Computational Linguistics of the University of Heidelberg on "Selected Themes from Artificial Intelligence" (Ausgewählte Themen der Künstlichen Intelligenz). You can get the slides here. For those interested in the materials for teaching purposes, please do not hesitate to contact me: I am happy to provide you with the LaTeX source and/or embedded images.

| Biographical Information |
I come from Milano, the city of fashion and Negroni Sbagliato. I got my first degree in Philosophy from the University of Milano, having graduated with a Laurea thesis in Formal Semantics under the supervision of prof. Andrea Bonomi and Gennaro Chierchia. I still enjoy meditating on the works from Husserl and Wittgenstein once in a while. I first got caught into Computational Linguistics while visiting the Department of Alfa-Informatica at the University of Groningen as Erasmus student. Before coming to EML I spent some time in England pursuing an M.Sc. in Intelligent Systems under the supervision of prof. Stefan Wermter and Christo Panchev of the Hybrid Intelligent Systems group at the School of Computing of the University of Sunderland.
