Carrying research project "Efficient communication under uncertainty: Vagueness and Implicatures", for which I obtained a 2-year funding from Lithuania's Research Council (LMT). I ran large scale surveys on Amazon's crowdsourcing platform Mechanical Turk, analyzed the data with state-of- the-art statistical methods, designed and coded cognitive models of human communication, and presented the results of the project at international conferences in Europe and North America.
