John Armstrong’s Expertise My life-long interests are language and culture. I spent 16 years in academia, 25 years in commercial high-tech software, and now I’m doing my own thing. I still write code every day in Java and Python and work with current technologies such as focused web crawlers, MongoDB, Solr and Jjango, well as open-source NLP projects such as the JHanNanum Korean morphological analyzer and the KoNLPy Korean NLP experimental framework. But it’s always in service of something that I am personally passionate about, whether it’s photography, Asian literature in translation or, my main focus for the last year, the Korean language. I’ve been interested in the Korean language ever since I worked with a Korean engineering team on a Korean speech recognizer at Lernout & Hauspie in the 1990’s, and I’ve recently been studying it formally including both independently and in courses. I found it a difficult language to learn and became interested in using my linguistic and programming skills to build tools that might make it easier, for me and for other learners. I’m not quite sure yet quite where the project going yet, but it’s definitely an enjoyable one to work on.
