Research Areas

I am broadly interested in machine learning, with specific interests in deep multi-task learning, learning with temporal point processes, and network representation learning. I am also interested in scalable and distributed machine learning, e.g. sketches and coresets. I have applied these techniques on problems in information extraction, computer vision, natural language processing, web and e-commerce, computational advertising, bioinformatics, online social networks.
