I'm an assistant professor in the computer science department at Louisiana State University. I received my PhD in computer science from Yale University. Before joining LSU, I worked for two years in the computer science lab at SRI International.

My research interest is in the area of machine learning and it applications. One focus of my research in machine learning is transfer learning, where we design and explore different feature extraction and data representation methods for knowledge discovery and transfer.

My research also involves applications of machine learning methods in areas such as cyber security, analysis of material simulation data and biomedical data.
