Minh Duong (Dương Nhật Minh)

A Brief History of Minh

I am a second year graduate student at the Language Technologies Institute, in the School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University. I work with Professor Jack Mostow in Project LISTEN. I am interested in various applications of Machine Learning in text and language processing, such as information retrieval, text classification and information extraction. Before coming to CMU, I spent 4 years on the beautiful campus of Sewanee - The University of the South, majoring in Computer Science and Mathematics. Before that, I was an exchange student in Las Vegas, Nevada during my last year of high school. And even before that, I grew up in Hanoi, Vietnam.
