Paul Erdős and me
Thanks to this1, I've moved a lot closer to center of the 'universe' on the publications graph. My Erdős number is 5, I think.1: my 1/4th contribution to that paper was on the structural analysis part. Just for spidey's sake, here's an official link: Mapping and Structural Analysis of Multi-lingual Wordnets.

Well, congratulations!
Btw, any chance you'd want to co-write a paper with me? On, eg, the fairness of IR?
Congratulations are in order. And may your number decrease!
(Kunal : I'm in queue too.)
thanks guys. A co-co-collaboration? why not.
nice nice ... now all you need is a film role to get you the final feathers in your cap -- a Kevin Bacon number and, hence, an Erdős–Bacon number. Then you'll find your destiny -- you'll become famous as a trivia question :))
Hey! I read through a bit of the paper. Great work! Seems like you might have had to do quite a lot of research on the languages. Not being in touch with hindi after school is definitely an impediment. BTW what s/w did you use to draw the graphs? Was it merely excel?
Great stuff! :) Congrats!
all: Thanks!
GT: am already trivia qn. Refer qn on Mastermind India winners; once, embarassingly, in the same quiz I was participating in. c'est la vie.
TDQ: was done with gnuplot and OpenOffice. Could have used Excel had I been on Windows. I use gnuplot for simpler graphs, like the line-plots.
Was the qn something like "the first one was a history teacher from somewhere, the second one was .... The last one, the youngest was an IT professional from Pune" ? And more importantly did it come to you? Also please to specify venue and quiz name.
meghashyam's quiz last july. didn't come to us (thank god). also asked by gaurav sabnis in a quiz featuring harish on stage at iim-l. damnation.
Congrats Ramanand, paper seems amazing..so Natural Language is what you are dealing with now.cool stuff.
