Dutch NLP - Introductions

Hi everybody, great initiative!

I am Pieter Delobelle, a PhD researcher at DTAI lab at the KU Leuven (Belgium). My research is mostly focussed on fairness and bias in NLP, so for example how to quantify and mitigate stereotypes in language models.

One example of this is in the bias analysis (pdf, page 7) of RobBERT, a Dutch state-of-the-art RoBERTA-based LM that we released last year at EMNLP. Internally, we are using this model for processing resumes and vacancies. We are also using RobBERT to monitor tweets in Belgium, so a Belgian model would be very useful! :slight_smile:

If you have any questions, e.g. about RobBERT or fairness in NLP, you can always find me on:

Feel free to contact me, I’m always open for collaborations :slight_smile:
