Sidsel Boldsen
PhD Student in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Digital Humanities, with special interest in historical languages and linguistic knowledge representation. I am part of the interdiciplinary research project "Script and Text in Time and Place" at the University of Copenhagen.
Research
I study how NLP methods can be use to model language change and variation using different kinds of linguistic and palaeographic representations. The main challenges that I am working with in this respect are how to inform models about linguistic knowledge/annotation and how to interpret such models subsequently. I am mainly been working with text, but I am also interested in using image processing as a means of representing visual features, such as handwriting or material, of a document.
