GGLab
GGLab (pronounced as “cici” in Turkish) is a Natural Language Processing (NLP) research lab led by Asst. Prof. Gözde Gül Şahin. We have a keen interest in conducting fundamental research in core methodologies, including but not limited to areas such as learning/performing under low-resource settings and incorporating expert knowledge in language technologies. Additionally, we explore how these methodologies can be applied to various tasks, such as text simplification, linguistic structure analysis, grammatical error correction, dialogue understanding and question answering. We are part of Computer Science Department at Koç University and affiliated with KUIS AI Lab, located in the north of Istanbul, Türkiye. GGLab is partly funded by Scientific and Technological Research Council of Türkiye via Tübitak 2232B International Fellowship for Outstanding Researchers program, and Wikimedia Foundation via Wikimedia Research Fund.

First Wikimedia Research Fund for Türkiye!
Translating technical content with scientific terms is still challenging for both state-of-the-art LMs and MT models. Well, we already have “dictionaries” that can guide the models for correct terminology translation, but how can we use them? We are thrilled to announce that our lab has been awarded a $40,000 grant from the Wikimedia Research Fund to investigate this. For more details about our project, please visit here. This project also has a very special meaning since it marks us as the first ever research group from Türkiye to be awarded with Wikimedia Research Fund! |
