I am a postdoc researcher at the University of Tilburg in the Netherlands, working in the Induction of Linguistic Knowledge research group. I participate in the MITCH project, developing text mining methods in the cultural heritage domain. The context of this project is the CATCH program: Continuous Access to Cultural Heritage.

Before this, I worked in the IMIX project on developing a spoken dialogue system for IE and QA in the medical domain (ROLAQUAD).

My PhD research project (2001-2004) focused on machine learning techniques applied to natural language dialogues for the extraction of pragmatic-semantic information from spoken user input.
