I'm an PhD candidate at HUJI in the field of Natural Language Processing. My general research is on probabilistic models for text. One focus is the analysis of narratives, with several projects on Holocaust testimonies. I am part of "The future of the past" group. I'm also interested in probabilistic properties of language modeling and the relationship between language (=word) and event (=world) modeling.
