About me
I am a researcher at Inria, Paris in the ALMAnaCH team, working on Natural Language Processing (NLP) and more specifically Machine Translation (MT). I was previously a research associate at the University of Edinburgh, working on MT for low-resource languages, having completed my PhD on the contextual MT of dialogue at the LIMSI laboratory (now the LISN) in 2018 under the supervision of Sophie Rosset and Thomas Lavergne.
