Work Experience
Mentoring Yu Gong (Masters student) ,Sept. '12-present
for her Masters project with the CMU DB group on brain graph mining.
Carnegie Mellon University, Graduate Research with
Christos Faloutsos,Fall '10-present
Currently, I am working on graph summarization, graph similarity, graph matching, compression, anomaly detection in graphs (using graph analytics or tensors), and data modeling. I have also worked on belief propagation on large heterogeneous graphs, and analysis of P2P data. I am interested
in developing scalable algorithms for data mining tasks, and applying machine learning algorithms (e.g., belief propagation) in
large, time-evolving graphs in order to find patterns and outliers. My goal is to develop algorithms that help "understanding large graphs".
Research Intern at IBM TJ Watson Research Center,May-August '12
I interned at the Social Networks Analytics Group, and my mentor was Hanghang
Tong. My work was on graph matching for data mining applications. Result: 1 paper submitted, 7 patents.
Mentoring Jay-Yoon Lee (Masters student) ,May-August '12
for his summer project with the CMU DB group on anomaly detection.
Mentoring Cheng Chang (senior student) ,May-August '12
for her summer project with the CMU DB group on graph mining.
Institute for the Management of Information Systems (IMIS) & National Technical University of Athens (NTUA)Spring '10
I conducted research for my diploma thesis.
