Education
Ramsay's undergraduate degree was in Logic and Mathematics from the University of Sussex.[6] 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 focuses on Natural language processing,[7] [8] [9] [10] including morphology and syntax. He has published papers on the analysis of free word order languages, particularly morphology of the Arabic language,[11] which poses a number of specific problems. Some of this research has been funded by the EPSRC.[13]
