Current Research and Projects

For the past three years, I have been a student researcher in the Rensselaer A.I. and Reasoning (RAIR) Lab. While researchers in the RAIR Lab oftentimes find themselves participating, to some degree, in all of the lab's various research projects, I am primarily focused on the Slate and PFL projects (see below).

• NIMD Novel Intelligence from Massive Data.
• Slate A System for Logic and Theorem Extraction.
• PFL Poised for Learning.

Past Projects

• Pegasus, a cross-platform interface for animating proofs constructed using Peirce's Existential Graph formalization.
• EGDP, an implementation of the Davis-Putnam procedure for Existential Graphs.
• Snibby, a side-scrolling adventure game developed in Marc Destefano's Game Development class.
