About me
My research is driven by the complexities of big data and the growing demand of data interpretation in real world problems. Topics include, but are not limited to:
- Applied Machine Learning in real world problems such as deep learning, multi-task learning, and multi-instance learning for information extraction and event modeling in social science.
- Text Mining and Knowledge Discovery such as discovering interpretable patterns and reciprocity information in heterogeneous media sources and multi-modal data.
- Fairness, Transparency, and Trustworthiness in AI systems and humans' interactions with the systems.
