Dr Gordon Hunter

About

I have a BA in Mathematics from the University of Cambridge (Churchill College), an MSc in Electronic Engineering & Computer Science and a PhD in Speech, Hearing and Phonetic Sciences (Computer Speech Technology), both from University College London.

Prior to joining Kingston University as a Senior Lecturer in 2003, I had previously worked as a researcher at the British Antarctic Survey, the University of Portsmouth and University College London, and as a Lecturer at St. Mary's College (now St. Mary's University, Twickenham) and the University of Westminster.

My research interests encompass many aspects of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (especially Statistically-Based Learning) and their applications (particularly to speech and language processing, to healthcare and in education). I also have interests in Mathematical & Computational Modelling in Sport, in Educational Technology for assisting the teaching and learning of Mathematics and Computer Science, and in Statistical Physics.
