My name is Michal Ptaszynski, I work as an Associate Professor at the Department of Computer Science, Kitami Institute of Technology, Kitami, Japan. I am engaged in a number of projects, including the development of sentiment and affect analysis tools for Japanese, detection of cyberbullying entries on the Intenet, developing emotionally aware language models, or developing linguistic analysis tools for low resource languages, such as Ainu language. My research interests overlap Natural Language Processing (NLP), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI).
