Biography: 

Hal Daumé III is a professor of computer science with an appointment in the University of Maryland Institute for Advanced Computer Studies. He is director of the Institute for Trustworthy AI in Law & Society (TRAILS).

Daumé’s research is focused on understanding computational properties of learning and language as well as trustworthy AI. He studies questions related to how to get machines to become more adept at human language (and AI tasks more broadly), by developing models and algorithms that allow them to learn from data.
