The Department of Linguistics at the ²ÊÃñ±¦µä is pleased to announce that Dr. Mans Hulden joined the faculty in Fall 2014. Dr. Hulden's research focuses on developing computational methods to infer linguistic structure from data using varying degrees of prior knowledge of supervision, particularly in the domains of phonology and morphology. He has also worked extensively with linguistic applications of finite state technology, including modeling of linguistic theory, grammatical inference, and development of language resources. He received his PhD in Linguistics from the University of Arizona in 2009 and has since been a Marie Curie fellow and a research fellow at
