I’m a third-year graduate student interested in art­ificial in­tel­ligence with an emphasis on open knowl­edge extraction from text.

At Rochester, my advisor is Lenhart Schubert, with whom I am working on the KNEXT knowl­edge ext­rac­tion system.

At the Institute for Creative Technologies at USC, I worked with H. Chad Lane on doing statistical NLP to analyze essays in the TACL system for continuous learn­ing.

I was an undergraduate at Vassar College in Pough­keepsie, New York, majoring in CS. There my advisor was Nancy Ide, with whom I worked (in a minor capacity) on the American National Corpus. I also par­ticipated in the URSI program, doing research into the application of machine learning techniques to the pre­diction of musical chord progressions, working with Luke Huns­berger.

A copy of my Curriculum Vitæ is available.

You know, when I was a lad they called it AI. Artificial intelligence.
