Welcome!

I am a DFKI Research Fellow and principal researcher at DFKI. I have studied computer science, artificial intelligence, and computational linguistics at the Universities of Regensburg, Koblenz-Landau, and at the Saarland University, Saarbrücken, Germany. I obtained a Dr. rer. nat. degree in Computer Science in 1994, and the Venia Legendi in Computational Linguistics in 2004, both from the Saarland University. Since August 2014 I am an apl. Professor at the Department of Language Science and Technology of the Saarland University.

News

Parts of our work on dense information retrieval is now integrated into the online service of idw-online ( Informationsdienst Wissenschaft/scientific information service) which is a news portal for up-to-date information from science and research. Our tools are used for recognizing document similarity and to support journalists in expert search.

Together with DAM - Deutsche Allianz Meeresforschung (a service of the leading German marine research institutions in one alliance) we will also exploit our dense information retrieval technologies.
