معرفی
Andrei Kutuzov is an Associate Professor in the Language Technology Group (LTG) within the Department of Informatics at the University of Oslo. He serves as the Norwegian on-site manager of the High-Performance Language Technology (HPLT) project and has made significant contributions to computational linguistics and natural language processing.
His research primarily focuses on computational linguistics and natural language processing, with specialized expertise in semantic change detection, diachronically aware language models, distributional semantics, and large language models. Kutuzov has been instrumental in developing Norwegian language resources including NorBERT, NorELMo models, and the very large-scale NORA.LLM generative models. He created WebVectors, a web service for exploring neural distribution models for Norwegian and English texts.
Analysis of his recent publications reveals a strong focus on semantic change modeling, multilingual dataset development, and Norwegian language technology. His work spans from theoretical linguistic analysis to practical applications in language modeling, with significant emphasis on low-resource and Nordic languages. Kutuzov's research demonstrates a consistent trajectory toward improving language models' understanding of semantic evolution and developing robust evaluation frameworks for Norwegian language processing.
- Norwegian Artificial Intelligence Research Consortium (NORA) award as Distinguished Early Career Researcher (2022)
Kutuzov teaches several advanced courses including IN5550 - Neural Methods in Natural Language Processing (2019-2025) and IN3050 - Introduction to Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (2024-2025). He has received research funding through the HPLT project which focuses on developing high-performance language technologies. His laboratory work centers around the Language Technology Group at UiO, where he collaborates on developing Norwegian language resources and models, with particular emphasis on diachronic semantic analysis and multilingual capabilities.
