Here are some interesting and possibly useful tidbits.
Some stuff about me:
Goodies relating to engineering and computer science:
My Ph.D. dissertation, Knowledge-Based Spatial Reasoning for Automated Scene Generation from Text Descriptions:
My master's thesis, A Russian-to-English Translation System for Scientific Abstracts:
Years ago I prepared this survey of computational linguistics and knowledge representation for my Ph.D. comprehensive exam:
Even more years ago I also prepared these study guides for my Ph.D. qualifying exams.
They consolidate and index a massive amount of computer-science
information from a variety of sources. They might be useful for other
students, but keep in mind that they were written primarily for me,
and not everything makes sense outside of this context. I also make
no claims about the correctness of the information. I did pass my exams, though.
