Research Expertise:
Data Mining | Machine Learning | Text Mining | Data Warehousing | IP Metrics | Citation Analysis | Innovation Mining

My research interests are broadly in the area of Data Mining, which is an inter-disciplinary field that combines Statistics and Computer Science in an effort to identify patterns in large quantities of data. A subfield of interest is in Text Mining, which is essentially data mining with text. I work in areas where I can answer interesting questions with data. I am also interested in the study of innovation and emerging technologies through the mining of large patent databases.

Teaching Narrative:
Institute of Electrical and Electronic EngineersI mostly teach graduate classes related to data science (Data Mining, Text Mining, Databases, Data Warehousing, Machine Learning) and algorithms (advanced design and analysis of algorithms). Previously I spent six years in the Math department where I taught Calculus, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, and Modern Algebra amongst others.
