Can BERT help save endangered languages?
Excited to present this paper tomorrow at LM4UC @naaclmeeting.bsky.social! We explored how multilingual BERT with augmented data perform POS tagging & NER for Hamshentsnag #NAACL

Are your LLMs good-enough? 🤔
Our new paper w/ @nazik.bsky.social at #CMCL2025
@naaclmeeting.bsky.social shows both humans & smaller LLMs do good-enough parsing in Turkish role-reversal contexts. GPT-2 better predicts human RTs. LLaMA-3 does less heuristic parses but lacks predictive power.

I’ll be at #HSP2025 at the University of Maryland @UofMaryland, College Park, to present my MA thesis work on using pose estimation to detect phonetic reduction in Turkish Sign Language from March 27 to 29. Would love to meet and chat if you are in the area!

What’s a better first Bluesky post than introduce my recently defended MA thesis?
I examined signed narratives with a production experiment and computer vision to answer a simple question:
“Do signers display language economy as evidenced by phonetic reduction and referring expression choice?”
