My name is Michal Ptaszynski, I am an Assistant Professor at the Kitami Institute of Technology, Japan.
I am engaged in a number of projects, including: development of a dialogue agent that understands and aptly responds to user emotions; cyberbullying detection; morphology and syntax analysis tools for the Ainu language.
My research interests overlap Natural Language Processing (NLP), Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI).
Apart from my scientific experience, I have been an active translator and interpreter for nearly ten years. I translate between English, Japanese and Polish languages.
