Congratulations to @feiyuehchen.bsky.social and Lateef Adeleke who successfully converted their term paper on feature-level ASR evaluation into a publication to appear at the AfricaNLP workshop at EACL next month! pre-print: arxiv.org/abs/2602.04716

I'm recruiting Linguistics PhD students this cycle! You should apply to work with me if you're interested in anything low-resource NLP. Some topics I'm particularly excited about currently:

One week left to apply: I'm recruiting (Ling) PhD students! Come work with me on getting NLP to work for as wide a range of languages as possible! Some perks of UR: - Only have to TA 2 semesters total - At least $3k discretionary funds for e.g. conferences - Easy access to upstate NY nature

Do you want to understand how language models work, and how they can change language science? I'm recruiting PhD students at UBC Linguistics! The research will be fun, and Vancouver is lovely. So much cool NLP happening at UBC across both Ling and CS! linguistics.ubc.ca/graduate/adm...
