Bio

I am an Assistant Professor in the Computer and Information Science Department at Indiana University - Purdue University Indianapolis. I received my B.S. in Computer Science from Huazhong University of Science and Technology in China in 1996, and my MS and PhD in Computer Science from Purdue University in 2002 and 2005. I had worked as a research intern in IBM T.J. Watson Research Center, and joined IUPUI faculty in 2005.
 

Research Interests

        Data Mining: Uncertain Data Mining, Data Stream Mining
        Databases: Constant Evolving Data Management, Sensor and Moving Object Databases, Data Uncertainty Management
        Bioinformatics: Microarray Data Mining
