Alexander Ziem has joined the FrameNet project through our German visiting program, which is funded by the German Academic Exchange Program (DAAD). Alexander studied at the Universities of Cologne and Bonn, and also studied abroad at the University of Melbourne. He has worked in various teaching and research positions at the Universities of Düsseldorf, Berlin, Bremen, and Basel, in Switzerland.
Ilya Nikolaevskiy is a visitor working with Scott Shenker of Networking and Security. He's here on our Finnish visiting program, which is funded by the Finnish Funding Agency for Technology and Innovation through Aalto University and the Helsinki Institute for Information Technology.
Jussi Kangasharju is vising ICSI's Networking and Security group through our Finnish visiting program, which is funded by the Finnish Funding Agency for Technology and Innovation through Aalto University and the Helsinki Institute for Information Technology.
Four visitors from Finland recently joined our Networking and Security Group: Andrei Gurtov, Dmitriy Kuptsov, Andrey Lukyanenko, and André Schumacher. They are here as part of ICSI's Finnish visiting program, which is funded by the Finnish Funding Agency for Technology and Innovation through Aalto University and the Helsinki Institute for Information Technology.
Kalle Palomäki recently joined ICSI's Speech Group. He is here on ICSI's Finnish visiting program, which is funded by the Finnish Funding Agency for Technology and Innovation through Aalto University and the Helsinki Institute for Information Technology.
In 1988, ICSI ramped up to full staff, and Morgan began in his role as leader of the Realization Group. The group would focus both on building massively systems and on applications in speech recognition.
The group’s early successes were in designing and building machines powerful enough to do speech recognition. In 1989, the group designed an array of digital signal processing chips in a ring topology that used programmable gate arrays to interconnect processors.
This week, we'll be posting a two-part profile of Nelson Morgan, so make sure to check back for the rest of the story.
Morgan has led speech recognition research at ICSI since the Institute’s inauguration in 1988. Morgan also served as director for thirteen years starting in 1999, the year the agreement that had established ICSI expired. Morgan volunteered for the challenge of broadening and stabilizing the Institute’s funding base, and in 2012, at the end of his tenure, the Institute is doing better financially than it has in years. But then Morgan has always enjoyed a challenge.
Jiao Zhang is visiting ICSI's Networking Group, where she works with group leader Scott Shenker on caching management in information-centric networks. She received her bachelor's degree from the Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications in 2008, and she is now a graduate student at Tsinghua University in Beijing, China.
Every year, ICSI hosts postdoctoral fellows from Germany who are funded by the German Academic Exchange Program. In September, we welcomed the first four postdocs to arrive in this year's program: Michael Elberfeld, Christof Lang, Erik Rodner, and Daniel Warneke. They will be working on a variety of topics from theoretical algorithms to computer vision.
Last month, ICSI welcomed back one of its first employees: Chuck Wooters. This is Chuck’s third time at ICSI.
Chuck grew up in the San Gabriel Mountains in southern California and entered UC Berkeley as an undergraduate. He planned to get his bachelor’s degree in philosophy and then go to law school, but after taking a course in philosophical linguistics, he decided to switch majors to linguistics. His plans changed again when he became interested in computer science.
