Barbara Plank is a full professor and chair for AI and Computational Linguistics at Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich (LMU), where she heads the Munich AI and NLP (MaiNLP) lab and co-directs the Center for Information and Language Processing (CIS). She additionally serves as a visiting full professor at the IT University of Copenhagen, maintaining active dual institutional affiliations in computational linguistics and NLP research. Her research focuses on human-centric natural language processing challenges, particularly learning under sample selection bias (domain adaptation, transfer learning) and annotation bias, learning with limited data through continual/semi-supervised/weakly-supervised methods, multimodal learning at language-vision-speech interfaces, and fortuitous supervision for variety-space aware language understanding. She pioneers methodologies addressing human label variation as a critical factor in model robustness rather than mere noise. Recent publications (2024-2025) reveal dominant trends in modeling human label variation across NLP tasks, especially natural language inference and entity recognition, alongside dialectal language processing and LLM evaluation frameworks. Her work systematically investigates how human disagreement in annotations can be leveraged to build more robust, adaptable systems rather than treated as errors. Scientific recognition includes: ERC Consolidator Grant for the DIALECT project advancing natural language understanding for non-standard languages and dialects ACL 2024 Area Chair Award for the paper 'VariErr NLI: Separating Annotation Error from Human Label Variation' Leading the MaiNLP lab at CIS (LMU), she directs research integrated with MCML (Munich Center for Machine Learning), Munich Intelligent Robotics, ELLIS Unit Munich, UniDive, and COST action. Current projects include ERC-funded DIALECT and KLIMA-MEMES, focusing on human-facing NLP solutions for real-world language diversity challenges. She actively shapes the field through ACL leadership as VP-Elect and numerous keynotes emphasizing human-centric approaches. The MaiNLP lab at Akademiestr. 7, 80799 Munich, drives innovation in computational linguistics through interdisciplinary collaboration, maintaining strong ties with European research networks while developing practical applications for language variation and robust NLP systems. The lab's work directly informs her teaching in LMU's Computational Linguistics programs, bridging research and education in cutting-edge NLP methodologies.
