The Manchester Centre for AI Fundamentals and Manchester's ELLIS Unit are co-hosting a series of seminars featuring expert researchers working in the fundamentals of AI.
Chrysoula (Chryssa) Zerva is a post-doc researcher in the SARDINE group at the Instituto de Telecomunicações, and an Invited Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Instituto Superior Técnico. She completed her PhD at the University of Manchester in 2019 and was subsequently awarded the EPSRC doctoral prize fellowship for the “Fake Health News” project, a chance to look into the propagation of scientific misinformation in text. She is intrigued by the concept of uncertainty, both in terms of textual statements and model predictions. She is keen in exploring the concepts of uncertainty, fairness and explainability in NLP and textual representations, and is currently focussing on Machine Translation (MT) and MT evaluation.
