I am looking for a PhD student interested in studying explainable
semantic change detection.
Current computational approaches to modeling synchronic and diachronic
semantic change achieve considerable success as measured by scores in
shared tasks and the number of research papers. But they are mostly
non-transparent and obscure for historical linguists and lexicographers.
One of the reasons is that these methods lack explanatory power. This
PhD project is supposed to address this issue. The overall aim is to
transform numerical change predictions into human-readable explanations
linked to rich linguistic tradition of semantic shift categorization.
We will define particular paths towards this aim jointly, in discussion
with the PhD student.
The position is fully-funded and linked to the Language Technology Group
(LTG) in the Machine Learning Section at the Department of Informatics,
University of Oslo (UiO), Norway. The fellowship period is 3 years,
starting no later than August 2023.
A fourth year may be considered with a workload of 25 % that may consist
of teaching, supervision duties, and/or research assistance.
For more information, please see the full announcement here:
