NLP Shared Tasks activities

Shared tasks are a good means to collaborate with other researchers, they let students work on a defined task in a competitive way, and generally assess the methodological competences in solving practical problems. From 2017 to 2022, we had several successful shared task participations and helped to co-organized shared tasks as well:

CLEF-HIPE-2022 (Identifying Historical People, Places and other Entities): Shared Task on Named Entity Recognition and Linking in Multilingual Historical Documents.
Second SIGMORPHON Shared Task on Grapheme-to-Phoneme Conversions 2021for different resource settings and languages in collaboration with Peter Makarov. We co-organized the shared task, annotated data, provided the baseline system and also had a submission with extensions of the baseline solution.
CLEF-HIPE-2020 (Identifying Historical People, Places and other Entities) evaluation campaign on named entity processing on historical newspapers in French, German and English; co-organization of the task, providing a NER baseline system and the evaluation framework.
CoNLL-SIGMORPHON-2020 Shared Task 1 on Multilingual Grapheme-to-Phoneme Conversion on 15 languages in collaboration with Peter Makarov; our neural solution achieved 2nd rank. Our solution is described in a short paper at the SIGMORPHON workshop.
CoNLL-SIGMORPHON-2018 Shared Task on morphological inflection on 103 languages in collaboration with Peter Makarov; our neural solution achieved 1st rank in all settings in Task I and was competitive in Task II (our system 2018 paper). Our innovative solution for imitation learning based training was also published as a short paper at EMNLP 2018.
VarDial Shared Task (co-located with EACL 2017) on identification of written Swiss German dialects (CGI) in collaboration with Peter Makarov; our solution achieved 3rd rank (our system paper).
CoNLL-SIGMORPHON-2017 Shared Task on morphological inflection on 52 languages in collaboration with Tatyana Ruzsics and Peter Makarov; our neural solution achieved overall 1st rank (our system paper)
ICDAR2017 Competition on Post-OCR Text Correction (English and French) in collaboration with Chantal Amrhein; our neural solution was the best performing system in the Error Correction Task and performed well on Error Detection (official competition paper)
TAC KBP 2017 Event Nugget Task (Text Analysis Conference) (English, Spanish and Chinese) in collaboration with Peter Makarov; our neural solution was 1st rank for Spanish and Chinese in all subtasks, and 1st for English in the subtasks that included realis value predictions (our system paper)

Projects and Work

NFP 77 project "Task and Skill Profiles in the Digital Economy", Sinergia project impresso, Citizen Linguistics Project on Swiss German Dialects and Swiss French Citizen Linguistics,www.tonaccent.ch,www.dindialaekt.ch; Exploitation of linguistically annotated multilingual multiparallel corpora SPARCLING; Multilingual Sentiment Analysis KTI project together with Eurospider ; Biomedical Text Mining: MANTRA; SASEBio ; Political Text Mining: COSA ; German Sentiment Analysis IGGSA; Sentence Extension Tests (SET): SET ; Web-based Virtual Laboratory for Computational Linguistics CLab

I generally enjoy interdisciplinary work and sometimes consult scholars who apply text analytics methods to their problems. One example is the concept extraction for the material science journal article "A framework for evaluating the accessibility of raw materials from end-of-life products and the Earth’s crust" (work with Sandra R. Mueller). Another example is from the social sciences on the topic of "Text Zoning for Job Advertisement with Bidirectional LSTMs" in 2017 (work with Ann-Sophie Gnehm).
