Past Research Students
See my blog for a list of past research students I have supervised.
CLAN
The CLAN (Computational Linguistics at Aberdeen) resesarch group meets at 4PM every Wednesday. Every week we discuss a research paper, idea, proposal, etc. CLAN meetings are open to everyone, contact me for more information or to be put on the mailing list.
I sometimes tweet CLAN information on @EhudReiter. Feel free to subscribe, most of my tweets are relevant to NLG research. Similarly my blog (ehudreiter.com) is mostly about NLG research.
Current Research
My current research focuses on (A) evaluation of natural language generation and (B) using AI and NLG to support patients, especially in their homes.
