Markus Forsberg Markus Forsberg

I am a researcher at Språkbanken, a Language Technology R&D Unit at department of Swedish Language, University of Gothenburg.

I got my Ph.D. at Chalmers University of Technology, where I worked in the Language Technology group. My Ph.D. was financed by GSLT, which, in turn, granted me the honorary title GSLT Doctor No. 11.

Today I am actively involved in CLT (Centre of Language Technology).

My research interests include:
