Grzegorz Kondrak I am particularly interested in:
* identification of cognates -- words that are similar across different languages (e.g. English night and German nacht)
* applications of cognates in various areas of NLP, including language reconstruction, sentence and word alignment in bitexts, machine translation, and detecting confusable drug names
* computing word similarity (orthographic, phonetic, and semantic)
* applications of bioinformatics in NLP in Computational Linguistics > Peoplewith computationalgrzegorzkondraklinguisticspeople
