Carlos Gómez-Rodríguez

Carlos Gómez-Rodríguez received his M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in computer science from the University of A Coruña in 2005 and 2009, respectively, and is currently Associate Professor in the same institution. His research centers on Computational Linguistics, with special focus on natural language parsing, and he has authored a monograph and over 70 peer-reviewed papers in this field. His contributions include both theoretical and empirical work on constituency and dependency-based parsing algorithms, as well as on applications of parsing to other natural language processing tasks, and research on cognitive aspects of the syntax of human languages. He is Principal Investigator of the FASTPARSE project, funded by an ERC Starting Grant, as well as of a project funded by the Spanish MINECO.
