Research Interest

I am a data miner, nothing more and nothing less

My research interest is in data mining and machine learning studying both the algorithmic and application issues. The algorithmic aspects involve developing new scalable, efficient and interactive algorithms that can handle very large databases. The underlying techniques/tasks studied include associations, classification, clustering, online optimization and distributed learning. The application issues focus on actual implementation and usage of the algorithms on a variety of data sources with different characteristics including business transactions, images, natural language, biology data, program trace and data streams. My current work is focused on the following several specific problems:
