Bio

Grzegorz Chrupała is an Associate Professor at the Department of Cognitive Science and Artificial Intelligence at Tilburg University. Previously he did postdoctoral research at the Spoken Language Systems group at Saarland University. He received his doctoral degree from the School of Computing at Dublin City University. His research focuses on computational models of language learning from multimodal signals such as speech and vision and on the analysis and interpretation of representations emerging in deep neural networks. He regularly serves as Area Chair for major NLP and AI conferences including ACL, NAACL, EMNLP and CoNLL, and is an action editor for the ACL Rolling Review system. He co-organized the 2018, 2019 and 2020 editions of the BlackboxNLP Workshop on Analyzing and Interpreting Neural Networks for NLP. His research has been funded by the Dutch Research Council (NWO), via ASDI and NWA-ORC grants.
