Ellen Riloff is a professor of computer science in the School
of Computing at the University of Utah. Her research area
is natural language processing, focusing primarily on information extraction, semantic class induction, sentiment and
affective language understanding, social media text analysis, and coreference resolution. A major emphasis of her
research has been on developing bootstrapped learning
methods to automatically acquire the knowledge needed
for natural language processing.
Rosie Jones is a senior scientist with over 20 years of language technologies and machine learning experience. She
has developed practical language and machine learning
technologies in industry, through a career at Yahoo!, Aka-mai, and Microsoft. She helped pioneer internet industry
research in web search query log analysis and user behavior
analysis. She has extensive experience developing and
working on research programs in industry and conducting
technical transfer as demonstrated by her awarded patents,
academic publications, and major industry product contributions.
