This raises two questions: how to split a document into units, and how to divide a fixed document-level ε among those units. Earlier studies looked at each question separately. This paper is the first to examine them… 2. **[Building a Custom Taxonomy of AI Skills and Tasks from the Ground Up with Job Postings](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/meisenbacher-2026-building-custom-taxonomy-ai-skills/)** *(2026)* The paper asks how to best use very large, fast-growing text collections when building a domain taxonomy automatically with LLMs. The test case is AI-related skills, tasks, experience and qualifications in US job ads, where no established taxonomy exists. The authors propose TaxonomyBuilder, a bottom-up pipeline: ## All works 8 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 2 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1. **[DP-MLM: Differentially Private Text Rewriting Using Masked Language Models ↗](https://aclanthology.org/2024.findings-acl.554/) Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics: ACL 2024 · no summary yet**Stephen Meisenbacher et al.*2024 · 23 citations* 2. **[On the Impact of Noise in Differentially Private Text Rewriting ↗](https://aclanthology.org/2025.findings-naacl.32/) Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics: NAACL 2025 · no summary yet**Stephen Meisenbacher, Maulik Chevli, Florian Matthes*2025 · 6 citations* 3. **[An Improved Method for Class-specific Keyword Extraction: A Case Study in the German Business Registry ↗](https://aclanthology.org/2024.konvens-main.18/) Proceedings of the 20th Conference on Natural Language Processing (KONVENS 2024) · no summary yet**Stephen Meisenbacher et al.*2024 · 2 citations* 4. **[Towards A Structured Overview of Use Cases for Natural Language Processing in the Legal Domain: A German Perspective ↗](https://arxiv.org/abs/2404.18759) arXiv:2404.18759 · no summary yet**Juraj Vladika et al.*2024 · 1 citation* 5. **[A Systematic Exploration of Text Decomposition and Budget Distribution in Differentially Private Text Obfuscation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/meisenbacher-2026-systematic-exploration-text-decomposition-budget/) [Workshop on Privacy in Natural Language Processing](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/privatenlp/)**Stephen Meisenbacher, Angelo Kleinert, Florian Matthes*2026* 6. **[Building a Custom Taxonomy of AI Skills and Tasks from the Ground Up with Job Postings](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/meisenbacher-2026-building-custom-taxonomy-ai-skills/) [Workshop on Customizable NLP: Progress and Challenges in Customizing NLP for a Domain, Application, Group, or Individual](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/customnlp4u/)**Stephen Meisenbacher, Peter Norlander*2026* 7. **[DP-IPI: A Hybrid Differential Privacy Text Rewriting Mechanism for Indirect Personal Identifiers in Clinical Texts ↗](https://arxiv.org/abs/2609.29684) arXiv:2609.29684 · no summary yet**Ibrahim Baroud et al.*2026* 8. **[With Privacy, Size Matters: On the Importance of Dataset Size in Differentially Private Text Rewriting ↗](https://aclanthology.org/2025.ijcnlp-long.3/) Proceedings of the 14th International Joint Conference on Natural Language Processing and the 4th Conference of the Asia-Pacific Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics · no summary yet**Stephen Meisenbacher, Florian Matthes*2025* ## Co-authors here 1 co-author with a page, the most papers together first. - [Florian Matthes](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/florian-matthes/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Workshop on Customizable NLP: Progress and Challenges in Customizing NLP for a Domain, Application, Group, or Individual](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/customnlp4u/): [Workshop on Customizable NLP: Progress and Challenges in Customizing NLP for a Domain, Application, Group, or Individual 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/customnlp4u/2026/) - [Workshop on Privacy in Natural Language Processing](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/privatenlp/): [Workshop on Privacy in Natural Language Processing 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/privatenlp/2026/) - Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics: ACL 2024 - Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics: NAACL 2025 - Proceedings of the 14th International Joint Conference on Natural Language Processing and the 4th Conference of the Asia-Pacific Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics - Proceedings of the 20th Conference on Natural Language Processing (KONVENS 2024) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 19 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [3 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/stephen-meisenbacher/cited-by/).
