I am a PhD Student at Language Technologies Institute, School of Computer Science, Carnegie Mellon University. I am working with Dr. Eric Nyberg on AKITA and Interactive Annotation Learning (IAL) Project. My research interests are: Information Extraction, Text Mining, Active and Interactive learning and in general applying Machine Learning to NLP. My current research is on Generalized Interactive Annotation Learning and Opinion Mining.
