Teaching Statement
I teach CS 173 (Discrete Structures) and CS 440 (Artificial Intelligence).
Course Development
- CS 173 (Discrete Structures), wrote new textbook, built on-line activities, implemented on-line homework submission
Research Statement
My current research focuses on techniques for automatically learning word boundaries, and eventually related phonological and morphological information, from transcribed speech. I have previously worked on image understanding and ubiquitous computing. I have also developed programming language support for both computational language and images understanding research.
