I am a PhD student in Artificial Intelligence at the Leiden Institute of Advanced Computer Science (LIACS), supervised by prof. dr. Catholijn Jonker (TUD/LU), prof. dr. Piek Vossen (VU), dr. Pradeep Murukannaiah (TUD) and prof. dr. Aske Plaat (LU). I am interested in finding underlying perspectives in debates and (mass) deliberations, with the idea that we can help people to understand why others have a different opinion. To this end, I plan on using Natural Language Processing methods to analyze the ongoing dialogue, and aim to create artificial agents to support human deliberation participants. My project is part of the Hybrid Intelligence Consortium, which focuses on the combination of machine and human intelligence.
