About Me
I am a graduate student interested in computational linguistics
(and specifically, statistical parsing) and machine learning.
My advisor is Noah Smith and our group's page can be found here.
Before coming to CMU, I completed a bachelor's degree (mathematics
and computer science) and a master's degree (computer science) in Tel-Aviv
University.
