Education

Ramsay's undergraduate degree was in Logic and Mathematics from the University of Sussex. [7] After completing a Master of Science degree in Logic from the University of London, he returned to Sussex to complete a PhD in Artificial Intelligence. Prior to working at UMIST and the University of Manchester, he was Professor of Artificial Intelligence at University College Dublin.

Research

Ramsay's research [8] [9] focuses on Natural language processing, [10] [11] [12] [13] including morphology and syntax. He has published papers on the analysis of free word order languages, particularly morphology of the Arabic language, [6] [14] which poses a number of specific problems. Some of this research has been funded by the EPSRC. [15]
