Pretraining Language Models for Diachronic Linguistic Change Discovery
Research
My research combines machine learning with traditional literary scholarship, and has focused on humanities-centered language modeling, efficient pretraining, and analyzing orthographic variation in literary works. I am broadly interested in the set of topics that emerge at the nexus of literary scholarship, linguistics, and computational language modeling, particularly literary theory, semantics, pragmatics, and artificial neural networks.
