Why Is James Curran Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, James R. Curran is a computational linguist and senior lecturer at the University of Sydney. He holds a PhD in Informatics from the University of Edinburgh. Research Curran's research focuses on natural language processing, making him one of the few Australian computational linguists. Specifically Curran's research has focused on the area of natural language processing known as combinatory categorial grammar parsing. In addition to his contributions to NLP, Curran has produced a paper on the development of search engines to assist in driving problem based learning.
