Joshi, a University of Pennsylvania computer science professor who discovered a mathematical way to describe universal elements of human language - a method that has enabled computers to make more accurate translations. <br>Since 1958, Professor Joshi has been working “almost continuously on problems that overlap computer science and linguistics. Much of this research is now classified under formal linguistics, natural language processing, artificial intelligence, or cognitive science, depending on the topic.” <br> <br>For more information, please visit: <br><a href="http://www.philly.com/mld/inquirer/news/local/11154752.htm " target="blank">www.philly.com/mld/inquirer/news/local/11154752.htm </a> <br></font></td> </tr> </table> </td></tr> </table> <script type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="<http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show
