Timothy Greer (born February 26, 1992) is an American computer scientist, musician, and water polo player from Philadelphia.
Greer attended Washington University, where he played club water polo and majored in applied mathematics and systems engineering and minored in jazz studies.[1] In 2011, he captained Washington University to its first Division III National Championship, earning Most Valuable Player of the Tournament honors.[2][3] In 2014, he was named the 2013-2014 Scholar-Athlete of the Year by the Collegiate Water Polo Association.[4]
Now at the University of Southern California, Greer is pursuing his PhD in Computer science and is advised by Shrikanth Narayanan. Greer's research on beatboxing showed that articulations used by beatboxers use are not found in any attested language,[5] which garnered attention from news sources like the New York Times,[6] Newsweek,[7] and Popular Science.[8] In other research, Greer analyzed chords and lyrics of songs in the Billboard charts and used machine learning models to accurately predict musical genre.[9] This work was covered by Popular Mechanics.[10] Greer was also featured on Quirks and Quarks,[11] where he discussed his research on how humans' brains, bodies, and behaviors are influenced by happy and sad music.[12]
