John Nay

CEO, Skopos Labs; Research Fellow, Vanderbilt University

John Nay develops machine learning and natural language processing methods to better predict and understand complex systems. He has applied his computational research to law and business applications, including natural language processing of legal and regulatory texts, accurate forecasting of policy-making outcomes, computer simulations of prediction markets, machine learning software for predicting drought globally with satellite data, models for predicting human cooperation, and software for automatically estimating predictive models of decision-making.
