About us:

We are a group of researchers in Computational Linguistics and Natural Language Processing interested both in theoretical insight as well as industrial applications.

Rogelio Nazar is professor of linguistics at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Spain. He specializes in computational linguistics and currently leads the research group Tecling.com, dedicated to the development of linguistic technologies.

Irene Renau is a professor of linguistics at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Spain. Her main research interest is lexical semantics and the syntax - lexicon interface. She is a member of the Chilean Language Academy.

Gabriela Ferraro is a researcher on Natural Language Processing and Computational Linguistics at the Machine Learning Group, NICTA and an Adjunct Research Fellow at the College of Engineering and Computer Science, Australian National University.
