Faculty Honored For Teaching, Research, Public Service Efforts

• Senior scholar Martha E. Pollack was honored for significant contributions to the artificial intelligence (AI) field in the areas of planning, natural language understanding, and reasoning systems.
• "The theory of rational computational agents has been significantly advanced by your work," the chancellor wrote to Pollack. "The University is proud to honor your work as a founder of one of the central approaches to reasoning about plans and intentions. In addition, your work on simulation and testbed systems broke methodological ground and spurred much subsequent work in experimental AI."
