MARCOS GARCIA GONZALEZ

Marcos Garcia Gonzalez is a Ramón y Cajal Research Fellow at the University of Santiago de Compostela (USC), affiliated with the Department of Spanish Language and Literature and the Center for Research in Intelligent Technologies (CITIUS). His research focuses on computational linguistics, particularly in semantic analysis, multilingual systems, and language technologies for Galician and Portuguese. He leads projects like the Nós Project, advancing Galician's integration into AI and NLP tools. His work includes developing resources like the Parallel Universal Dependencies Treebank and tools such as Bertinho (Galician BERT models). Key areas include idiomaticity detection in word representations, vector models for semantic analysis, and syntactic parsing.

Education: PhD in Computational Linguistics from USC (2014), Master in Linguistics (University of Lisbon), and Degree in Portuguese Philology (USC). Postdoctoral research under the Juan de la Cierva fellowship (2016-2020). Awards include Ramón y Cajal and Juan de la Cierva fellowships.

Research interests span vector models, multilingual NLP, and semantic compositionality. Projects include LINNA (linguistic-based neural models) and DeepR3 (green language tech). His publications explore topics like homonymy/synonymy representation and Galician language preservation through open-source tools.

Key contributions include annotated corpora, coreference resolution systems, and cross-lingual parsing methods. He collaborates on hybrid intelligence systems for education (iRead4Skills) and Responsible AI (DeepR3.gal). Current efforts emphasize leveraging linguistic knowledge to enhance NLP models' interpretability and multilingual support.
