Greetings!
I am a PhD student in Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Michigan State University working under supervision of Dr. Rong Jin. Besides, I have been collaborating with the Search and Advertising Science team of Yahoo! labs on the Yahoo!'s contextual advertising  system since May 2008.

My general research area is machine learning, where the objective is to develop intelligent systems based on probabilistic and mathematical tools. This includes any learning model where there are strong mathematical justifications and computational theories as to why they work. Semi-supervised learning, active learning, learning the kernel and learning the distance metric are some of the areas I am more interested in exploring.
