guslI have previously heard philosophical statement: "to be is to be a bound variable". But Google doesn't seem to know this.
On the results page, however, I found Ralf Vogel, who is part of the very interdisciplinary Research Group on "Conflicting Rules". (I thought immediately of "conflict resolution" in production-rule-based systems)
One of their projects is, naturally enough, on Optimality Theory (Smolensky 1993... this is the second interesting Johns Hopkins person I surf into today, the other being Jelinek)
Smolensky, a physics PhD, was advisor to John Hale (who studies human parsing as an eager algorithm), and Lisa Davidson (who studies L2 phonetics: I'd love to see her cognitive models perform as a voice synthesizer with a foreign accent).
