Dialogue Modelling Group

Welcome ...

... to the website of the Dialogue Modelling Group in Amsterdam!

We carry out research at the interface of computational linguistics, cognitive modelling and artificial intelligence. Our aim is to understand how we use language to communicate with each other in situated environments and how dialogue interaction shapes learning -- about the world and about language itself. These are some of the topics we work on: Semantics and pragmatics of dialogue phenomena, visually grounded language, conversational agents and learning from interaction, uncertainty in language understanding and generation, language variation and change in communities of speakers.
