1. Eduard Hovy, Comp Ling: Research Scientist at U of Southern California

We are looking for a dynamic research scientist with expertise in 


 SPEECH RECOGNITION and DIALOGUE PROCESSING 


to help start a new research project at the recently formed Institute
for Creative Technologies of the University of Southern California in
Marina del Rey, CA. 


The system being built incorporates speech processing, dialogue,
agent-based reasoning, virtual reality, and sophisticated immersive multimedia
displays in a large-scale new project that has links to research at several USC
centers including the Information Sciences Institute (ISI) and the 
Integrated Media Systems Center (IMSC). 


The candidate should have a Ph.D. in either Speech Recognition or
Natural Language Processing (with emphasis on discourse) and strong abilities
in the both areas. The successful candidate may choose to join the Computer 
Science faculty of USC as well, and eventually supervise graduate
students in addition to performing the research.
