How does the mind work? How can computers model and take over some of our cognitive function? I would like to understand what makes us intelligent and why we make mistakes at times. I study language processing, dialogue, and decision-making. Most recently, I have been interested in neural models of language and discourse in natural language processing. I use data science techniques for inference from large-scale datasets and experiments. I create computational, cognitive and statistical models to contribute to a unified theory of cognition. My work in cognitive science is made possible by computational linguistics; my research in computer science is inspired by cognition.
