This project investigates speech and language as early markers of cognitive decline by integrating linguistic analysis with neuropsychological tests and biomarkers. Using large-scale, clinically validated datasets and state-of-the-art AI methods, it aims to identify, combine, and track linguistic, cognitive, and behavioral indicators to improve early diagnosis, monitoring, and prognosis of dementia.

We will apply corpus-driven methods as a way to expand and correct existing hand-crafted linguistic resources, and conversely we will use hand-crafted resources as additional sources of supervision when learning meaning representations automatically.

Digitization of Grierson’s Linguistic Survey of India (LSI; 1903-1927)

The main aim of this research program is to advance the state of the art in language technology resources and methods for semantic processing of Swedish text, in order to provide researchers and others with more sophisticated tools for working with the information contained in large volumes of digitized text, e.g., by being able to correlate and compare the content of texts and text passages on a large scale.
