I am a postgraduate research student at the The Open University’s Centre for Research in Computing, in Milton Keynes, UK.
My work as a full-time PhD student is supervised by Dr Paul Piwek and Dr Richard Power from the Natural Language Generation Group. I am now in the third year of my doctoral studies, looking at computational models of dialogue management for non-cooperative conversational agents.
One of the aims of this site is to explain the last sentence in the previous paragraph. In the Research area you will find a description of my PhD project, and also of other research I am involved with (rule-based spell-checking for Spanish, stereotypical computational humour and generation of natural language descriptions of formal specifications).
Progress is a private section with managerial details of my PhD project. You should be able to enter if this is of relevance to you, but please email me otherwise.
“When! When! One day, is that not enough for you, one day he went dumb, one day I went blind, one day we’ll go deaf, one day we were born, one day we shall die, the same day, the same second…”
