Expertise
I am a PhD student at the AI Lab of the VUB, supervised by Bart de Boer. In my PhD project (start: 2019), I use agent-based models to study the social, cognitive and language-specific factors that drive language change. I apply my models to case studies from the languages of the world. In addition to agent-based models. My research is supported by an FWO PhD Fellowship Identifying drivers of language change using neural agent-based models. I was previously funded by the Flanders AI Programme.
