Research Interests

I am interested in various aspects of automatic learning of patterns from data to support decision making in organizations. Recently I have been focusing primarily on learning from customer/user behavior. Advances in information and computer technology and the growing availability of data underlie the explosion of methods in machine learning, data mining and applied statistics for automatic discovery of patterns in data. The prospects of utilizing these methods to advance businesses and organizations have driven much of their widespread employment in business. In light of the growing importance of such practices I am particularly interested in studying the technological challenges facing data mining and machine learning approaches to couple tightly with business and organizational objectives.
