Alan RitterAssociate ProfessorSchool of Interactive Computing College of Computing Georgia Institute of Technology Office: Coda 1157B Email: alan.ritter@cc.gatech.edu Google Scholar: https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=en&user=unXtH3IAAAAJ Semantic Scholar: https://www.semanticscholar.org/author/Alan-Ritter/4655992 Follow @alan_ritter I am an Associate Professor in the School of Interactive Computing at Georgia Tech (also affiliated with the Machine Learning Center). I do research on natural language processing. My research group investigates questions regarding robust models that work across many domains and languages, while requiring fewer labels, and making efficient use of computational resources. I am also interested in data-driven dialogue agents that safely and naturally converse on any topic. I am always looking for strong students to work with. I advise students in both our ML and CS Ph.D. programs. For current Georgia Tech students interested in research: please email me a copy of your resume, transcript, and a description on what you would like to work on together. |
