| Submission declined on 28 August 2024 by Devonian Wombat (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject. Declined by Devonian Wombat 18 days ago. | |

Shuly Wintner (Hebrew: שולי וינטנר) is an Israeli Computer Scientist and a professor at the Department of Computer Science at the University of Haifa. He has co-authored and co-edited over 100 peer-reviewed scientific papers and several books.[1][2]. Wintner's research covers various areas of computational linguistics and natural language processing, including formal grammars, morphology, syntax, language resources (with a focus on Hebrew), and machine translation. His recent research has focused on multilingualism and code-switching.
Wintner has held several editorial roles, including serving as the Editor-in-chief of Springer's *Research on Language and Computation*. He has been involved in organizing academic conferences, notably as the general chair of EACL-2014. He also chaired the European chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics (EACL) during 2021-2022.[3][4] Additionally, he was a founding member and twice chaired the ACL Special Interest Group on Semitic Languages (SIG Semitic), indicating his focus on this area.[5]
Biography
[edit]Wintner received his B.A (1986-1988), M.Sc.(1988-1991), and D.Sc.(1993-1997) degrees in computer science at the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology. His master's thesis, supervised by Prof. Uzzi Ornan, focused on "Syntactic Analysis of Hebrew Sentences," and his doctoral thesis, supervised by Prof. Nissim Francez, focused on "Abstract Machine for Unification Grammars with Applications to an HPSG Grammar for Hebrew".[6] Following his doctoral studies, Wintner held post-doctoral positions at the Seminar für Sprachwissenschaft, Universität Tübingen, and the Institute for Research in Cognitive Science, University of Pennsylvania, before joining the University of Haifa faculty.[1]
Career
[edit]Wintner's work in computational linguistics includes contributions to finite-state and unification-based grammars, with applications in natural language processing. He has been involved in developing finite-state registered automata for non-concatenative morphology, which are used to analyze complex morphological and phonological phenomena in Semitic languages.[7][8]
His research also addresses the processing of Semitic languages, focusing on creating tools tailored to their rich morphological structures. He contributed to the development of a morphological lexicon for Modern Hebrew and performed detailed morphological analyses of the Qur'an, which have applications in text querying.[9][10]
Wintner has also researched topics such as translationese, machine translation, and code-switching. His study on translationese identified features like simplification and explicitation in translated texts, which has informed the development of machine translation models.[11][12]
