Ulf Hermjakob

Hello and welcome! As a member of the Natural Language Processing group of the Intelligent Systems Division of the USC Information Sciences Institute in Marina del Rey, California, I am involved in fascinating research and development, particularly in machine learning based parsing (English, Japanese, Korean and recently also Chinese), machine translation and open-domain question answering
