Hi, I’m Saba, currently a Ph.D student under the supervision of Prof. Chris Biemann.
I’m here on a study scholarship jointly supported by DAAD(Germany) and the Higher Education Commission of Pakistan.
Currently I’m working on unsupervised semantic frame induction. In past I have also worked on authorship analysis problems, primarily focused on developing corpora for under-resource languages such as Urdu and Roman-Urdu.
