Über Autor(innen)

George Tambouratzis graduated from the Electrical Engeneering Department of the National Technical University of Athens (1989), and received his M.Sc. (1990) and Ph.D. (1993) degrees from Brunel University. Since 1996 he has been with the Institute for Language and Speech Processing (ILSP), working on machine learning, neural networks and evolutionary computation algorithms for computational linguistics. He is the Director of Research at ILSP and the Head of the Machine Translation Department. He co-ordinated several EU-funded projects. 
Marina Vassiliou studied Linguistics and holds a Master’s degree in Generative Syntax from the University of Athens. As a research associate at ILSP since 2000 she has worked on various, mainly European, research projects concerning specifications for syntactic analysis, machine translation, stylometry, controlled languages, multilingual thesauri and business ontologies as well as the development of a coreference resolution systemfor Greek language.
Sokratis Sofianopoulos graduated from the University of Ioannina in 2002 and holds a M.Sc. from Heriot-Watt University (2003) and a PhD from the National Technical University of Athens (2010). Since 2005 he is a research associate at ILSP. He has worked in several European R&D programs in the field of NLP and machine translation, such as METIS-II (FP6-IST-003768), PRESEMT (FP7-ICT-248307), QTLaunchPad (FP7-ICT-296347).
