I am a Research Associate in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Liverpool, working with Trevor Bench-Capon and Katie Atkinson on the Estrella Project. The focus of the project is legal informatics for public administration. At Liverpool, our interests are primarily in computational argumentation, knowledge representation in argumentation frameworks, legal case-based reasoning, and ontologies for the law.
For recent publications, presentations, and technical reports in this area, please go to Recent Work.
I have a Ph.D. in Linguistics (1994) from Cornell University, where the subject was the syntax and semantics of adverbial modification. I recently was awarded a Ph.D. in Computer Science (2008) at King's College London, where the subject is the language, logic, and implementation of deontic concepts (obligation, permission, and prohibition) applied to complex actions for the formal representation of contracts. For further information about my work in Linguistics or on contracts, please go to Other Research.
