I am a final-year PhD student in Natural Language Processing from Knowledge Technology Research Group active at FIT-BUT in Brno, Czech Republic, advised by prof. Pavel Smrž. My faculty webpage is available here.
My main research interests are problems related to Question Answering and Fact-Checking. This includes topics such as latent variable models, document retrieval/re-ranking, machine comprehension or faithful explainability.
If you are a student looking for BSc/MSc thesis supervision in Natural Language Processing and you are not afraid of doing the challenging research, feel free to contact me.
