Hi!

I'm Dave Musicant, a computer science professor at Carleton College in Northfield, Minnesota. My research is in machine learning and data mining; I'm currently particularly interested in how such techniques can be used to help support Wikipedia editing. I also enjoy editing articles on music, computer science, and other random topics of interest.
