Ontology-Lexica Community Group: Introducing myself

Dear all,

My name is Christina Unger and I work in the Semantic Computing Group at 
Bielefeld University. After undergraduate studies in theoretical 
linguistics and a PhD on computational semantics, I joined Philipp's 
group end of 2009. My main focus now is on ontology-based natural 
language understanding, especially in the context of question answering 
over linked data. In this context, I'm currently working on the QA 
system Pythia. A crucial part of Pythia is that it employs grammars that 
are automatically generated from a lexicon-ontology interface (lemon, in 
fact), i.e. relies on a specification of lexical entries with respect to 
a given ontology. Therefore, this community group's aim to specify a 
model that provides rich linguistic grounding for ontologies is of great 
interest to me and I'm looking forward to the discussion we'll have.

Cheers,
Christina
