From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jaime G. Carbonell is Alan Newell Professor of Computer Science and the director of the Language Technologies Institute at Carnegie Mellon University.

He earned his B.S. degrees in Physics and in Mathematics from MIT in 1975 and his Ph.D. under Dr. Roger Schank at Yale University in 1979.

His interests span several areas of Artificial Intelligence, Language technologies and Machine Learning. In particular, his research is focused on areas such as text mining (extraction, categorization, novelty detection) and in new theoretical frameworks such as a unified utility-based theory bridging information retrieval, summarization, free-text question-answering and related tasks. He also works on Machine Translation, both high-accuracy knowledge-based MT and machine learning for corpus-based MT (such as generalized example-based MT).
