Dialogue theory and computational pragmatics -- Development of "Dynamic Interpretation Theory" (DIT), a computational semantic-pragmatic theory of dialogue in which utterances are viewed as multifunctionall combinations of dialogue acts, defined as context-changing operators. Specification of a formal and computational semantics of dialogue acts. Book: Abduction, Belief and Context in Dialogue; Studies in Computational Pragmatics (with Bill Black). See also the DIT++ taxonomy of dialogue acts.

Cultural Fit Analysis
The candidate's background is heavily academic and research-oriented, with a focus on theoretical and mathematical physics, philosophy, and language/AI. While this demonstrates intellectual curiosity and a strong foundation in analytical thinking, the direct alignment with a 'Data Analyst' role in a modern, potentially fast-paced industry setting is not immediately clear. The diversity of roles within academia and research suggests adaptability within those domains, but a transition to a more applied data analysis role might require significant cultural adjustment. The candidate's experience is primarily in Europe and Hong Kong, indicating international exposure.
Soft Skills & Operational Fit
The candidate's extensive experience in academic leadership roles (Head of Department, Member of the Board) suggests strong leadership, strategic thinking, and potentially good communication skills. Their long tenure in various institutions indicates stability and dedication. However, without specific project details or performance metrics, it is difficult to assess operational fit for a Data Analyst role beyond general leadership and research capabilities.
