About
I’m a PhD candidate at the Data Science Institute, University of Galway. My research focuses on representing, extracting, and reasoning about opinions in text, specifically on unifying the existing representations with ontology-driven methods. Alongside this, we continue experimenting with scalable, LLM-based annotation alternatives. My broader interests include subjective language understanding, “learning from disagreement” and knowledge-grounded NLP.
