Summary
Vilém Zouhar is a doctoral student at ETH Zürich with 11 years of experience focused on natural language processing, machine translation, and human-computer interaction. His research explores trust and confidence in NLP systems, non-mainstream MT quality estimation, and automatic text quality detection including simplicity and usefulness. He has industry research experience from internships at AWS and Google, and a strong academic foundation from Charles University, University of Groningen, and Universität des Saarlandes. Based in Zurich, he blends rigorous empirical research with practical engineering sensibilities, often tackling evaluation problems that bridge linguistics and user-facing system behavior. Notably, his work seeks to surface subtle quality signals in text that traditional metrics miss, informing both better models and more trustworthy interfaces.
