Welcome to the Group for Language & Intelligence!

We study the computational foundations of language and cognition. Our research combines theory, machine learning, and behavioral experiments to advance the scientific understanding of cognitive systems — from humans to artificial intelligence.

We are part of the Department of Cognitive Science at Johns Hopkins University, and affiliated with Computer Science and the Data Science and Artificial Intelligence Institute.
