Subject: Looking for NLP Expert Witness for Court

 
The plaintiff and defendants in a major NLP lawsuit are looking for Expert
witnesses to testify either on the defendants' or the plaintiff's behalf
concerning the B&B parser (formerly the Ergo Linguistics Parser).  

In particular, the expert needs to testify to the viability of the B&B (Ergo)
parser or lack thereof and to bring evidence to bear of parallel or superior
parsers, especially statistic parsers.  The expert(s)'fees will be paid,
including transportation to Hawaii to testify.  The litigants and the
complaint are listed below my signature line.

Inquiries, recommendations, and C.V.s should be sent to all of:

btobin at goodsill.com
