I am a graduate student in the Department of Computer Sciences (UTCS) at the University of Texas at Austin. I joined the UTCS Masters program in Fall 2003, and the UTCS Ph.D. program in Fall 2005. My research advisor is Prof. Daniel Miranker.
Research Interests
Knowledge discovery (from) and efficient organization of large datasets for search and retrieval. This spans areas of relational databases (indexing) and machine learning. Typical applications lie in text collections (hypertext, documents) and bioinformatics.
Specific problems I have worked on:
Other topics I'm interested in:
