About Me

I am a Masters student in school of Information and Computer Science at University of California, Irvine.
My research interests are in the areas bordering on both Computer Science and Applied Statistics such as Machine Learning, Analysis of Social Networks and Web Search Engines.

I completed my undergraduate education from National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirapally, India in 2009.
I worked in the Online Services Devision of Microsoft Inc., Hyderabad, India for a little less than two years before deciding to leave for further education. Please refer to my resume for my work at Microsoft.

Coursework

Fall 2011: Intermediate Statistics A, Machine Learning, Data Structures
Winter 2012: Intermediate Statistics B, Statistical Methodology and Data Analysis II, Probabilistic Learning, Information Retrieval
Spring 2012: Statistical Computing, Graphical Models, Computer Architecture

I am currently planning a Masters thesis under supervision of Prof. Alex Ihler.

Projects

HHP Health Prize (Link)

I, part of a team of three, worked on a Kaggle project to identify patients who would be admitted to hospitals given medical history of previous years. We implemented various classification and prediction algorithms to get an estimate. The compition is still on and carries a prize pool of $3 million.

PNAS Chemistry Corpus Analysis

I am currently doing analysis of PNAS Chemistry corpus from over two decades. Our hypothesis is that research in Chemistry, unlike other physical sciences such as Physics and Mathematics, is essentially conducted in much smaller groups and scope of collaboration is limited, in most cases, to other people in same affiilated institutes.
