Research

Middlesex University

I obtained my PhD (2009 - 2011) in Artificial Intelligence from the Middlesex University, London, under Dr.Christian Huyck. My thesis—“A Neurocomputational Approach to Prepositional Phrase Attachment Ambiguity Resolution”—dealt with the dynamics of associative memories (in neural cell assemblies (CAs)). My research involved creating CA models that performed tasks such as natural language processing, computer vision, spatial cognitive mapping, queriable hierarchical memories, self-learning agents etc.
