Projects

Some of the projects I worked on at ICSI:

• GALE
• EARS
• Meeting Recorder
• SmartKom

For projects at SRI check here. A long-term software project that has a significant user community is the SRI Language Modeling Toolkit (SRILM).

Some significant graduate school projects were:

• L0 - Miniature Language Acquisition (now called Neural Theory of Language)
• The Sather object-oriented language
• Miscellaneous software that is now no longer being supported on a regular basis.
