About Me
Welcome to my web page!.
I am a PhD student in the Department of Computer Sciences
at the University of Texas at Austin.
I am a member of Machine Learning Research Group and my research advisor is Prof. Ray Mooney.

Research
My main research interests are in the areas of machine learning and data mining. I am currently working on statistical relational learning. I am also interested in natural language processing and bioinformatics.
In the past, I have also worked with Prof. Tandy Warnow and
Prof. Randy Linder on problems in computational biology - multiple sequence alignment and phylogenetic estimation.
