About Us

TAUR Lab logoThe TAUR Lab (Text Analysis, Understanding, and Reasoning) is a research group at The University of Texas at Austin, led by Greg Durrett. We focus on improving techniques for accessing and reasoning about knowledge in text. Large language models like GPT-4 have dramatically advanced these frontiers; currently we are looking at where these systems succeed and fail and how to further enhance their capabilities, particularly by building modular NLP systems that use LLMs as primitives. Check out our publications page for more detail.

For more information about who we are and for information about joining the lab, check out the people page.

See the UT NLP group website for information about the broader UT NLP community.
