Summary and discussion of assigned readings for the Fall 20007 Sketch Recognition class
About Me
The Required Stuff
Year: PhD 3rd year
Email: p r i s c u s 2 7 @ gmail.com
Academic Interests: Neural Networks, Human Cognition, Manifold Learning
Relevant Experience: Classes - Machine Learning, Pattern Classification
Why are you taking this class?
Not only does the subject sound interesting, it also seems like a technology that will be very relevant to the future use of computers. Also, it sounded like a cool class to gain some knowledge in the area of human-computer interaction in a hands-on way.
What do you hope to gain?
A better understanding of how humans use handwritten/drawn information to communicate and also how we understand this information. How people recognize what is depicted.
5 to 10 years from now?
Not really sure. Hopefully I'll have graduated. I'd like to go into a teaching career, preferably at the university level, though teaching at a lower level of education and being able to provide an introduction to computer science at the high school or younger level would also be interesting.
Nonacademic interests:
Swing (and other forms of) dancing, Computer and console gaming, Sci-fi and fantasy literature.
Fun Story:
Since this has recently been told to everyone I know, I'll tell it. When I was about 5 or 6 years old, we were heading out to the car to go to church. I was dressed to the nines, new shoes, new slacks, a button up shirt, hair slicked back. My mom looks over at me and says, "Well Paul, you sure look sharp today." And I instantly burst into tears. Because as we all know, one of the very first things you learn is that sharp is very, very bad and you should never touch sharp things.
