AboutChuck Cosby Expertise I can answer questions about speech recognition and natural language understanding. I am particulary strong in knowedge based natural langauge techniques. I cannot answer questions about robotics, nueral nets, prolog, or vision recognition - just speech and natural language.
Experience I have spent 25 years developing natural language software products. I have never developed speech systems, but I have developed sophisticated interfaces from natural language to speech. I have been working with speech recognition systems also for 25 years.
I am working on a few databases which have large amounts of data with some of them wrong. I want to develop a tool or use an existing tool which would help me analyse and correct the data with respect to a certain pattern. for eg an attribute might have values of between 1 to 20 normally but suddenly it has an abnormal value of 56 which has to be detected and notified or modified.
Any ideas

Answer There are such tools in the 'Data Warehousing' technology areana. They are called 'ETL' for 'Extract, Transform, and Load. Extract, as in extract data from from a production database. Transform, as in fix the problems with the data, and Load, as in Load the data into the data warehouse. You are interested in the 'Transform' aspect. But i suspect the entire data warehousing concept might be of interest to you. do an internet search on 'data warehouse' or 'ETL'
