Paul Smolensky, a professor of Cognitive Science at the Johns Hopkins University. Smolensky along with Alan Prince developed Optimality Theory, a controversial but influential theory about the organization of phonology. He is a member of the Center for Language and Speech Processing.
Smolensky is the recipient of the 2005 David E.
