I maintain and develop several open source Python libraries for processing natural language. The goal is to make NLP research results available for everyone even outside of the academia in such a fashion that one can just pip install a package and start using it.

Publishing research papers is costly. For a paper to be published it must be presented in a conference, which costs money in the form of a registration fee, travek and accommodation. Also data collection and human evaluation aren't free. Your sponsorship will be used towards covering the costs of publication of results. The results of these papers will be used to make my Python libraries better.
