...,when an antelope sees a predator at a safe distance, it will stot , or leap high into the air. This not only communicates to other antelopes that danger is near, but also communicates to the predator "I see you, and I am healthy enough to run away, so don't even bother chasing me."

My current homepage
As a Ph.D student, I was co-supervised by Professor Chua Tat-Seng and Dr. Min-Yen Kan. I defended my thesis, Context for Semantic Similarity Calculation in Scenario Template Creation, in 2009. My research interests lie in Artificial Intelligence, Natural Language Processing, Text Summarization and Question Answering. Links supposedly frequented by me can be found here.
