Right now, CS 173 for Fall 2013 is currently available only to CS/CE majors, but we expect to make some places available for non-majors in late summer. If you are a CS major who is having trouble registering, please contact me and/or Steve Herzog (smherzog@illinois.edu) so we can help you into the class. Students in other majors should fill out the waitlist form. If you are still on the waitlist as classes start, you are expected to attend class and keep up with assigned work if you are still interested in getting into the class.

My research interests include computational linguistics, computer vision, and programming language tools to support language and vision research. Right now, I'm working on unsupervised algorithms that learn word boundaries from transcribed speech.
