Research

In the Spring of 2008 I worked on a semester-long project with Dr. Devika Subramanian on creating a game that uses "human computation" in order to create audio tags for familiar popular music. The idea is to then use this data to train the computer to be able to make its own tags from music.

During Summer 2006 I worked with Dr. Larry Reeker at the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Gaithersburg, Maryland on developing a computer model of second language learning (first language: English, second language: Spanish, however, the system is extensible).

• Finished product
• Final paper
• Powerpoint presentation for the project (an overview)

In the Spring of 2006 I worked with Dr. Walid Taha on extending the capability of the Lego Mindstorms Robot known as TexBot to run C programs and then eventually RIDL programs created in a Unix environment.
