Value-Aware AI (VALAWAI)

Understanding the moral values embedded in user-generated content is essential for building AI systems that interpret and engage with human discourse, especially in polarized, emotionally charged spaces like social media. This project pioneers value-aware AI, capable of detecting and reasoning about the moral undercurrents driving online conversations.

Evolutionary linguistics

Why are there so many different languages across the world? How come these languages are so vastly different, while at the same time yielding recurrent features? How can we learn, use and process language?

Fluid Construction Grammar

Fluid Construction Grammar (FCG) is the world’s most advanced computational platform for exploring constructional language processing, an innovative approach to language that offers a single representation for all linguistic knowledge.

Investigating Creativity in storytelling

A key research target is the direct individuation of the factors able to trigger creative exploits. To this end, one needs an operational definition of creativity and ways to quantify it in controllable settings.

Building Narratives through Structured Representations

Our project, cantered around ARTIS, an AI-powered reading comprehension tool, focuses on enabling SEND learners to overcome text comprehension challenges through personalized, adaptive practices and that, ultimately, investigates the impact of adaptive content representation on vulnerable learners.
