Major Qualifying Project (MQP): Speak to Me - An Experiment in Artificial Intelligence -
One key element of improved future human-computer interaction is the development of a natural language parser and generator. To be useful, an intelligent agent must be employed to aid in the understanding of language. The goal of this project is to develop an unprecedentedly robust interface for an intelligence. We used unorthodox development platforms, techniques, and paradigms to attempt to accomplish this goal. We discovered a fundamental flaw in natural language processing, and propose the next step toward a solution. Interactive Qualifying Project (IQP): Computers in Education - Created a web applet, written in Java, to teach people calculus, specifically integration. Using a "white box" approach, the user selects what integration rule to apply at each step.

Decisions made from desperation Re-Align |
"The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to
correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black
seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining
in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of
dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful
position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light
into the peace and safety of a new dark age."
H. P. Lovecraft, The Call of Cthulhu
