Key aspects of activity

• Christoph Purschke works as an Associate Professor in Computational Linguistics at the Institute for Luxembourgish Linguistics and Literature.
• In his work at the University of Luxembourg he combines different disciplines and methodological approaches to the analysis of language as a cultural phenomenon. This includes the expansion of Sociolinguistics through data-driven and computational approaches (Computational Sociolinguistics) but also the further development of algorithms and models in Computer Science through sociocultural data (Cultural AI). In this context, he is also concerned with the theoretical foundations of computer-aided cultural practices for the analysis of social processes (Culture & Computation). In addition, he is committed to the development of digital language resources and applications for Luxembourgish (Natural Language Processing), as well as to an active dialogue between science and society in the context of participatory research projects (Citizen Science).
