The Knowledge Representation project investigates methods for structuring, aligning, and reasoning over knowledge extracted from language, with particular emphasis on low-resource settings, domain-specific semantics, and intelligent information access.

We propose to advance natural language processing for low-resource settings by leveraging data augmentation, transfer learning, and model adaptation techniques to overcome the scarcity of annotated data and linguistic resources.
