Andreas Vlachos – a senior lecturer at the Department of Computer Science and Technology at the University of Cambridge

Since October 2018, I am a senior lecturer at the Natural Language and Information Processing group at the Department of Computer Science and Technology at the University of Cambridge. Current projects include natural language generation, automated fact-checking and imitation learning. I have also worked on semantic parsing, language modeling, information extraction, active learning, clustering, and biomedical text mining.

Prior to this, I was a lecturer at the University of Sheffield, working on the intersection of Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning. Previously I was a postdoc at the Machine Reading group at UCL working with Sebastian Riedel, at the NLIP group at the University of Cambridge working with Stephen Clark and at the University of Wisconsin-Madison working with Mark Craven. I did my PhD at the Unversity of Cambridge with Ted Briscoe and Zoubin Ghahramani.
