Tiago Timponi Torrent Ph.D. is a Brazilian linguist who works on multimodal, multilingual Natural Language Processing.[1] He is a Professor of Linguistics at the Federal University of Juiz de Fora, where he also serves as the Dean of the Graduate Program in Linguistics[2] and the PI of the FrameNet Brasil Computational Linguistics Lab.[3]
Torrent graduated in Portuguese and Latin Languages and Literatures from the Federal University of Juiz de Fora in 2003. In 2005, he received a masters degree in Linguistics from the same university, under the supervision of Prof. Margarida Salomão.[4]
Torrent earned his PhD from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro in 2009, under the supervision of Prof. Maria Luiza Braga.[4] His dissertation proposes two mechanisms governing the relation between constructional inheritance and change within the Construction Grammar framework.[5] During his PhD, Torrent spent a semester as visiting student researcher at the Linguistics Department of the University of California, Berkeley, under the supervision of Prof. Eve Sweetser.[4]
Torrent is one of the original partners of the Global FrameNet initiative.[6] He is also one of the team leaders of the Data to Stop Gender Based-Violence initiative[7]: a joint project between Vital Strategies Brasil and FrameNet Brasil aimed at using data linkage and textual analysis for identifying territories prone to suffer from Gender-related violence.
Since 2019, Torrent has been collaborating with Mark Turner in the International Distributed Little Red Hen Lab, serving as a mentor in the Google Summer of Code program.[8]
Torrent is the recipient of the 2021 edition of the ABRALIN Prize on Technology and Innovation in Linguistic Research, awarded by the Brazilian Linguistics Association.[9]
Starting 2022, Torrent has been a key research collaborator of the International Multimodal Communication Centre at the University of Oxford.[10]
