Computational Linguistics Faculty

William Lewis, Assistant Professor

(Ph.D., University of Arizona)

Areas of research and teaching include Computational Linguistics, specifically natural language processing and language encoding, Cognitive Science, Psycholinguistics, and Morphosyntax. Dr. Lewis is particularly interested in the use of the World Wide Web as a linguistic resource: how the Web can provide data relevant to the study of language, and how existing linguistic resources can be migrated to Web-friendly formats.

Sean Fulop, Lecturer

(Ph.D., UCLA)

Areas of interest include Phonetics (experimental phonetics for linguistics, the phonetics-phonology interface, speech recognition, digital signal processing of speech, and aeroacoustic modeling of speech) and Mathematical Linguistics and Learning Theory,

Chris Golston, Associate Professor

(Ph.D., UCLA)

Areas of research and teaching include phonetics, phonology (especially), morphology, syntax, and acquisition.. Dr. Golston is interested in using current models of phonetics and phonology to improve computation and to make it more psychologically real, and would ultimately like to directly model the link between sound and meaning.
