Valentin Hofmann
a Junior Professor for Information and Language Processing Using AI Methods at LMU Munich.
His work integrates machine learning with insights from linguistics and social science to identify and address limitations in natural language processing systems. Currently, he focus on large language models, particularly in the areas of tokenization, sociolinguistic grounding, and bias.
