Amir Zeldes is an Associate Professor in the Department of Linguistics at Georgetown University, where he leads the Corpling@GU Corpus Linguistics lab. He serves as President of the ACL Special Interest Group on Annotation (SIGANN). His primary research focuses on computational models of discourse, including referentiality and discourse relations, leveraging multilayer corpus studies to advance NLP and linguistic theory. Zeldes holds a Ph.D. from Humboldt Universität zu Berlin, complemented by an M.A. and B.A. in linguistics from Humboldt and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. His work emphasizes discourse analysis, coreference resolution, and annotation frameworks, with contributions to Universal Dependencies treebanks and discourse parsing benchmarks like DISRPT. Zeldes has authored influential texts such as Multilayer Corpus Studies (2018/2020), exploring methodologies for parallel linguistic analyses. His research bridges theoretical linguistics and computational tools, addressing challenges in discourse signaling, entity salience, and cross-linguistic NLP applications. Zeldes' lab develops open-source tools for corpus creation and annotation, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration in computational linguistics. His recent projects include advancing discourse relation parsing, LLM evaluation, and historical language restoration through RNN models. Despite no listed awards, his extensive grants and publications reflect significant academic impact in NLP and corpus linguistics.
