Dominic Widdows has worked on differential and algebraic geometry at Oxford, natural language processing and search at Stanford, and distributed databases and collaboration at MAYA Design. He is now a software engineer in Google's Pittsburgh office on CMU's campus, working on text mining and machine learning.
His first book, Geometry and Meaning, attracted praise from other researchers, engineers, and members of the general public. He continues to contribute research papers in a range of areas including quantum informatics and concept learning, and works on several program committees and review panels.
His main contributions to open source projects have been in the areas of semantic mapping and semantic search, including the Stanford Infomap-NLP package, and the new SemanticVectors package, initially created in partnership with the University of Pittsburgh.
