Research Areas

Research Projects
  • Treatment for severe dysarthria in children: identifying target consonant movements for use with animated 3D visual biofeedback software. Work with J. C. Vick, Case Western Reserve University.
  • Modeling of biological processes, solution of engineering optimization problems. Work with R. Weismantel and D. Thevenin, University Magdeburg. 
  • Obtaining explanations from numerical data, including cases of very small data sets with very long records such as DNA-microarrays. Work with PhD students K. Moreland and K. Riehl.

Distinguished Lecture Investigates Nature of Mathematics
Distinguished Lecture Investigates Nature of Mathematics Dr. Klaus Truemper, professor emeritus of computer science, recently delivered an Erik Jonsson School of Engineering and Computer Science Distinguished Lecture.

Truemper’s talk, “Wittgenstein's Philosophy and the Creation Versus Discovery Question of Mathematics” explored whether the field of mathematics was created by man, or something innate in the world which was discovered.
“There is a profound philosophical question: Where do all the results of mathematics theory come from?” Truemper asked. “Are they already present in some hidden, possibly metaphysical location and then discovered by inquisitive minds? Or, are they created in the same way that engineers design various machines for energy conversion, production of goods or transportation?”
